Detroit Lions' Playoff Hopes Hang in the Balance
The Detroit Lions narrowly missed clinching a playoff berth, but it might be for the best as they now control their own destiny in the race for the NFC's No. 2 overall seed. If they win their final three games and the Philadelphia Eagles also win their remaining games, the Lions will earn the No. 2 seed due to the "common opponents" tiebreaker. Additionally, the Lions can clinch the NFC North Division with one more win or any loss by the Minnesota Vikings.
