Lions schedule is so weak

It's completely pathetic. Their division is garbage too. With the Vikings QB out now too there really is no competition. Look at the schedule all year long. They haven't played anybody and don't play anybody almost all year long. They have a legitimate chance for the #1 or #2 seed. Who's going to beat them? They don't play anybody. We need them to lose a game or 2. But who will do it? Have you looked? Look if you don't believe me. They barley have any games that will challenge them. The Lions with a top seed. It's completely unthinkable. Remaining schedule. 11/19 Bears vs Lions. = 31 - 26 Win. (Stupid, stupid Bears could have won. LOL.) 11/23 Packers vs Lions (Thursday - Thanksgiving Day). = 22 - 29 Loss. 12/3 Lions vs Saints. = 33 - 28 Win. 12/10 Lions vs Bears. = 13 - 28 Loss. 12/16 Broncos vs Lions. = 42 - 17 Win. (Saturday - NFL Network game) 12/24 Lions vs Vikings. = 30 - 24 Win. 12/30 Lions vs Cowboys. = 19 - 20 Loss.... CRY_BOYS win.... .... 1/7 Vikings vs Lions. = 30 - 20 Win. They are 7 - 2. They have 2 losses guys. They have to lose a few games for us to catch them in the standings for playoff seeding. I don't see many losable games here at all. The Cowboys is about the only one. That's a horrible schedule. Maybe the Saints can give them a little game. Their division and overall schedule is a complete joke. Who will beat them of that? They need to drop some games. We need to catch up to them. 12 - 5 record. Clinched Division. 1st place NFC North. ** #3 seed.

Yep. This is on Kyle and the injuries that his teams seem to always have. Forget yesterday boys and girls. The Lions play college teams the rest of the season. The Vikings might be their best opponent remaining. I went to the 49ers-Lions game a few years ago, in Detroit. We might literally have to go on the road and play an inferior opponent, in a loud building, in the playoffs.🤬

Saints, Vikingsx2, and Cowboys. Yes they have an easier schedule but that's what happens when you finish 2nd in the division vs 1st in the division.

We trail them by 1 game currently and assuming they have any more losses we currently have the tie breaker over them

The Lions are still the Lions I'm sure they won't go undefeated the rest of the way. I can see losses against the Cowboys and once against the Vikings. And maybe even an L to a team you don't expect

Might as well start looking forward to the draft.

Who cares if they havent played anyone. Folks were saying that about us not too long ago. Good teams lose to bad teams all the time so lets just see how it plays out.

The Packers and Bears are a joke. The Broncos are terrible. The Vikings had some hero ball from the new QB. But I don't think it continues. Only the Cowboys and Saints are possible losses. Who else? Maybe the lose 1 unexpected game somewhere.

Possibly so. I hope they do because we need them to drop some games. At least 4 losses. The Cowboys look like the best chance. Maybe at Vikings or the Saints game.

I think we have to run the table to get the #1 seed. We have to be 14 - 3. The Eagles are the toughest game for us. The others we can win. But we probably have to win them all. The Lions have to drop about 2 games. I'm hoping the Cowboys and some other unexpected game. But their remaining schedule is very weak. The Eagles will lose a few games I think. Their schedule is murder coming up. The most important will be against us head to head so we get the tie breaker.

As it stands now we actually would own the tiebreaker against the Lions if the Lions were to drop 1 more game. The lions only play NFC teams from now on.

stop worrying about other teams

only thing stopping the niners from a 6th lombardi is health, especially qb health

As tonight proved, games aren't won on paper. The lions just got demolished by the ravens and could have easily lost to a mediocre chargers team. Let's see what happens

I want the Lions and Eagles to lose. So we can get the #1 seed. Nothing wrong with having an advantage.

We will see. But an advantage is nice.
