Chances that Detroit miss the playoffs?

How about if the Redskins wins out and the Lions win their division, do the Pack get in as a wildcard? How about the Giants, Falcons, Bucs and Vikes? The last three weeks will be very interesting.

Well the Vikings play the Pack so one of them will be pretty much eliminated as the loser would have 7 losses.

The Skins would need Tampa/Atlanta to lose a game. They need help to get in as long assuming they win out. To avoid any tiebreaker drama, the Giants are better off winning the next 2 so they can have a WC locked up heading to week 17.

They're the Lions. That's what they do.

Amirite @Winged_Wheel88?

Is it wrong that I have zero hope of making the playoffs? Detroit won last Sunday, yes - but both Green Bay and Minnesota won too. That just kind of confirmed in my little birdie pessimistic mind that God has plans for us...and they don't involve making it into the postseason.

Nut up and have more confidence.

It sounds confusing as hell.

It will be if we have a bunch of 10-6 teams tied

And that's possible.

It's a tough road for sure. Looking at the schedules, I wouldn't put money on it.

Detroit will make it as I have been told that there is no chance that the Packers will qualify for the playoffs this year meaning the Packers would lose their the last game giving Detroit a 10 - 6 record and the division win.

 

[bksballer89]

They finish their season with road games against the Giants and Cowboys before heading home to play Green Bay? I don't think any of us would be shocked if they lose all of those games which would be a 9-7 season.

Thoughts?

They got saved by the Redskins choke job this afternoon. They did lose all 3 as I expected but thanks to the Skins losing vs the Giants and the Panthers two weeks ago, the lions are still in

It's at Seattle at night...don't those games usually get really ugly?

It was too bad Washington lost, so that the loser of this game was still in the playoffs. It turned it from an all or nothing game into an ehh, who cares I'm still in the playoffs game.
