News summary

The Green Bay Packers extended their NFL record-tying streak of home opener wins to 13 games with a 27-13 victory over the Detroit Lions at Lambeau Field, matching the Miami Dolphins' mark set between 1976 and 1988. This win marked the first Week 1 home victory since 2018 and featured a standout defensive performance from newly acquired Micah Parsons, whose presence energized the team and crowd, earning praise from head coach Matt LaFleur. During halftime, former Packers head coach Mike McCarthy was honored for the 15th anniversary of the Super Bowl XLV team, receiving a warm ovation as part of the franchise's annual alumni weekend celebration, which also brought back multiple players from various eras. Fans embraced the event with tailgating, player meet-and-greets, and a festive atmosphere underscoring the community's deep connection to the team and its history. The victory over the defending NFC North champion Lions was seen as a promising start to the season, with hopes that the team, led by quarterback Jordan Love and bolstered by Parsons, can continue their success. The Packers aim to break the record with a 14th consecutive home opener win in 2026.
