The (4-7) haven't swept the (7-4) since 1991.Putting that into perspective, rookie running back and second-year tight end weren't even alive when the club last pulled that off.Two-plus decades of Brett Favre and under center will do that an oft-moribund franchise like the , but Detroit has a chance to end this ugly streak on Thursday Night Football.

On pace for their worst offensive campaign of the Rodgers era, the have been Antonio Callaway Jersey a bore since Week 4, ranking near the bottom of the league in points per game (T-26th), yards per outing (27th), pa sing Britton Colquitt Jersey yards per tilt (25th) and third-down percentage (25th).So what's wrong? Well, not much has changed since last month on how Green Bay's struggles chart back, in part, to a cast of slow wideouts. With on the shelf, the rank among 32 teams in average 40-yard dash time for their top three wideouts -- , and -- and No. 1 tight end -- -- per ESPN.com's Rob Demovsky.The problems at wideout are another reminder that most offseason narratives mean nothing.

McCarthy called Adams the "MVP or an All-Star" of the offseason.Entering December, though, Adams is struggling with an ankle injury and battling confidence i sues after with a whopping eight drops, leading Adams to say of his troubles this week: You really want to have that, they call it, the DB (defensive back) mentality.

After failing to cro s the 100-yard barrier all season, the third-year back pounded the for 100 yards in Week 11 before chalking up 105 yards against Chicago on . The powerful Green Bay back has struggled, though, in two career games at Detroit, Jaelen Strong Jersey running for a combined 52 yards at just 2.5 yards per attempt. The desperately need him to show up on Thursday night.Motor City turnaround?Since Week 6, signal-caller owns better numbers than Rodgers, topping last year's MVP in completion percentage, pa sing yards per game and quarterback rating. Jim Bob Cooter's elevation to offensive coordinator has ushered in a new day for Stafford, who is operating as a top 10 pa ser since the play-caller took over before Week 8. Stafford is making better decisions, reducing turnovers, finding his playmakers and throwing with confidence. The need their sixth-ranked scoring defense to rattle Stafford, but that's a tall order from a pa s rush with one or fewer sacks in four of their last five games.Cooter has also done more with , the electric rookie runner who is finally seeing an uptick in snaps.

That's what every coach, every GM, every president, every scout, they're all looking for that particular formula."Why should you tune in? For starters, Detroit has a chance to spoil Green Bay's season on the national stage. Sweeping the would leave McCarthy's bunch at 7-5 and Bernie Kosar Jersey one step closer to mi sing the playoffs. Meanwhile, a win would keep the mathematically alive for a playoff spot after their 1-7 start. Likely? Not at all, but neither of these teams have followed the script in 2015.
