The Detroit Lions schedule for 2025 sees the reigning NFC North champions facing a formidable slate of foes. This year's games include a divisional kickoff in Week 1 in Green Bay, with the rematch with the Packers on Thanksgiving in Detroit.

With the NFL schedule officially unveiled, here is Lions OnSI's first game-by-game prediction for the Lions' 2025 season. Week 1 - Sunday, Sept. 7 -- at Packers (4:25 p.m. ET) Prediction: 30-23 win (1-0). Week 2 - Sunday, Sept. 14 -- vs. Bears (1 p.m. ET) Week 3 - Monday, Sept. 22 -- at Ravens (8:15 p.m. ET)

Last year, the Lions and the rest of the NFC North had an easy schedule, thanks to a rotation that had them playing the four teams of the NFC West and the four teams of the AFC South.
