On the Detroit Lions website it lists their record as 11-6-1 versus Green Bay Packers on Thanksgiving day, but I do not think that includes this years loss.
Three times?

From the Detroit Lions website: The Lions have played the Packers the most of any franchise on Thanksgiving with 16 meetings between the two teams. Detroit and Chicago have battled a total of 15 times. The Lions have played 21 different NFL teams on Thanksgiving Day.
In their 33 meetings, the Steelers have beaten the Green Bay Packers 14 times.
The Green Bay Packers did not play on December 1, 2013. They played their week 13 game on Thanksgiving, November 28 and did not win. Green Bay lost to the Detroit Lions 40-10.
Yes, they have. Through the 2011 season, the Steelers have beaten the Green Bay Packers 14 times in their 33 meetings.
The Lions will host the Green Bay Packers for their traditional Thanksgiving game this year.
Through the 2008 season, that was November 27, 2003 when the Lions defeated the Green Bay Packers, 22-14.
It usually rotates between NFC opponents and AFC opponents. In 2011, the Lions are scheduled to play their NFC North rivals, the Green Bay Packers.
Both teams are real hot right now.......Detroit historically can be hard to beat at home Thanksgiving Day, so I would think GB needs a huge effort to win...I would give Detroit a slight advantage at home......Green Bay then plays the Lions the last game of the season at Lambeau, so I would the Packers the advantage at home.
