STREAKS, STATS AND NOTES - Lions trying for first sweep of Packers since 1991 season. ... Both teams eliminated from playoff contention. Both made it last season, and their matchup to end regular season decided division. ... Packers started this season 4-1 but are 3-7 since loss to Minnesota in which QB Aaron Rodgers was injured. Brett Hundley, who replaced Rodgers, has thrown for eight TDs with 10 INTs. ... Green Bay's Jamaal Williams and Aaron Jones form only rookie pair in which each player has at least 400 yards rushing and at least four TDs rushing. ... Packers WR Davante Adams is tied for second in NFL with 10 TD catches. ... Green Bay LB Blake Martinez leads NFL with 136 tackles. ... Detroit's Matthew Stafford is third in NFL with 4,123 yards passing and has seven straight seasons with at least 4,000. ... Since 2015, Lions' Theo Riddick is only RB in NFL with 1,500 yards receiving and 10 TD catches. ... Detroit hasn't had 100-yard rusher since Reggie Bush had 117 on Thanksgiving against Green Bay in 2013. ... Lions CB Darius Slay leads NFL with seven INTs. Fantasy Tip: Detroit's anemic running game is generally worth avoiding, but if you must consider RB from Lions, rookie Tion Green has played more prominent role lately and may receive more extensive look in largely meaningless finale.
