5. Green Bay Packers @ Detroit Lions

With the exception of some of the modern aspects of the Detroit Lions uniforms, this is a classic match up between two of the NFL’s older teams. As I stated last week in my rankings, there are few uniforms in sports that can top the Green Bay Packers. The Detroit Lions current uniforms have elements of modern design, but also remind you that this team has a vast amount of NFL history.

You can expect the Packers to be in their standard road uniform: white jerseys and yellow pants. The Lions will be wearing their blue home jerseys and flat-silver pants.

The silver on the Lions uniforms should match up nicely against the yellow and green of the Packers. Still, the black accent lines on the Lions uniforms keep this match up from moving higher than our fifth best this week.
