Packers’ improving run defense ready for challenge against NFC North-leading Lions

Associated Press  

GREEN BAY, Wis. — Defending the run has been one of the Green Bay Packers’ weaknesses over the last several years. “And that’s how you play good defense.” That defense needs to be at its best Thursday as the Packers close a stretch of three games in 12 days by visiting the NFC North-leading Detroit Lions, who have the NFL’s highest-scoring offense thanks in part to a rushing attack featuring the speedy Jahmyr Gibbs and the physical David Montgomery. Green Bay outrushed Detroit 138-124 in the Packers’ 24-14 loss to the Lions on Nov. 3 at Lambeau Field. Montgomery ran for a combined 192 yards and four touchdowns in the Lions’ two games against the Packers last season. “I think Haf’s doing a good job of mixing up the fronts and some of the coverages, but really it’s ultimately about tackling, swarming, getting many hats to the football,” Packers coach Matt LaFleur said.
