Jordan Love expected to start vs Lions
The Packers starting quarterback suffered a groin injury in the win over Jacksonville last Sunday

From Pelissero:
#Packers QB Jordan Love — who’s listed as questionable with a groin injury — is expected to start Sunday’s game against the #Lions, per sources.

Love was a limited participant in two practices this week, though one of them was held outside in heavy rain, which would suggest the medical staff wasn't too worried about Love possibly aggravating last week's groin injury.
Love has thrown for 1,547 yards this season with 15 touchdowns with 9 interceptions and a 91.8 QB rating.

A wet field on Sunday could be a problem for Love's groin injury. If he is not 100% I would prefer that the Packers let him rest his injury until after the bye week.
IMO playing Love on a wet field in the rain is a risky move. I realize that this is an important game but I'd prefer to have Love ready and at 100% for the 8 game stretch following the bye week. Those are the games that will determine if the Packers reach the playoffs and win the division for that matter. However, it looks like the decision to start Love has been made so all that's left is hope for the best and Go Pack Go! Thanks, Since '61

MLF better be careful...sure its great he's starting and its an important game, but so is the rest of the season...hope this move doesnt backfire with a worse injury situation...

No one heals from a groin strain in 6 days-bring on the Lidocaine injections, Toradal infusions.

I'm sure LeFleur told Love your playing. We just gave you a shitload of money and your getting your arse out there and earning it. LOL
No I'm with you I expect him to be almost immobile with that injury. Good luck Jordan.

I would probably believe that Malik Willis gets more reps in practice than Love due to injuries

Hopefully groin boy wont toss a couple more picks. He's at what 11 now and counting. Gonna rain so that will help the pack. Lions havent played outside yet this year and their speed demon running backs will be slowed down, advantage packers if Zairre and stokes dont play, HA

It’s not his groin or his MCL, it’s his peanut sized brain that holds love back.
He reminds me of James Winston.. only at a high salary.
Ever notice how mistake free they play when Malik Willis is playing?
