From the article

Seven of Love's 30 passing attempts that day were to targets more than 20 yards downfield. He completed four of those seven targets for 126 yards and two touchdowns... considering how poor the Lions' passing defense is by virtually every measure (in or near the bottom quarter in almost every stat you can find), I think we can reasonably assume he'll have a chance to move the ball against the Lions this week.

Positive signalMatchup

Love's deep-ball success vs. Lions' weak pass defense should enable aggressive vertical attack.

Packers QB should have success attacking the Lions' poor passing defense; last year's Thanksgiving game showed Love's deep-ball effectiveness with 7 of 30 attempts targeting receivers 20+ yards downfield, completing 4 for 126 yards and 2 touchdowns. The Lions rank near the bottom quarter in virtually every passing defense metric, creating favorable conditions for Love to move the ball downfield.
