As we get ready for the kickoff, here are some pre-game notes to chew on:The Packers’ seven-game winning streak in the series against the Lions is the longest since Detroit had an 11-game streak from 1949-54.Seven Lions head coaches have overseen the team’s 18-game losing streak to the Packers in Wisconsin, dating to 1991.The Packers’ 18-game home win streak includes a 1994 wild-card playoff game. Taking away that win, the Packers’ 17-game streak ranks second among active NFL streaks. Washington has an 18-game home win streak over the Lions.The Packers’ captains today are Greg Jennings, Nick Barnett and Brett Goode.-- Mike Vandermause, mvandermause@greenbaypressgazette.com
