If they win out they have a 96% chance of making the playoffs…
You wouldn’t happened to be related to
by chance?
Why would you think that?
I am different
I like your profile picture
thanks and welcome brother!
this is a cool site. you can look up how good each franchise was over time. Our peak was in 1954. Even an old geezer like me wasn’t even born yet.
ITs a really cool site. They have really cool sports and political statistical analysis.
So I see if all the favorites win this week we go from 36% to 68% to make it. This is an absolutely massive two days for us.
Win 2.
AND
Need 2 of these 3
Seahawks to lose 1
NYG to lose 2
WSH to lose 2 of last 3, 1 of 2 if lose @SF today

I’m proud of this team.
- Preseason expectations were shit
- we’ve more than doubled our win total from last year
- of the 16 MFC team, 4 our officially eliminated from the playoff race and we are NOT one of them.
- prior to game one of the regular season or at the 1-6 mark no one! Figured we’d still be in the hunt for the 7th and even technically the six at 1800 today.
I’m simply hoping the Bears game just became a redemption game for us and they finish out at Ford Feild with a win!
I’m with ya.
Future looks pretty exciting in my opinion.
Figured I’d bring this over from the other post, since this is the stickied thread about playoff chances, but:
1. Lions win both remaining games (CHI, @GB) for (9-8) AND:
- SEA needs to lose at least once more (NYJ, LAR) for (8-9)
- WSH needs to lose at least once more (CLE, DAL) for (8-8-1)
- NYG needs to lose both remaining games (IND, @PHI) for (8-8-1)
#6 seed if all 3 things happen. #7 if 2 of three happen.
OR
2. Lions win one remaining game (CHI, @GB) for (8-9) AND:
- SEA needs to lose both remaining games (NYJ, LAR) for (7-10)
- WSH needs to lose both remaining games (CLE, DAL) for (7-9-1)
- GB needs to lose one of remaining games (MIN, DET) for (8-9)
PLUS
- If TB wins at least two of remaining games (@ARZ, CAR, @ATL) for (8-9), NO needs to lose one of remaining games (@PHI, CAR) for (7-9)
- If CAR wins both remaining games (@TB, @NO) for (8-9), TB needs to lose two of remaining games (@ARZ, CAR, @ATL) for (7-9)
NYG (8.5-8.5) would be #6 regardless of what they do in remaining 2 games.
Thanks for sorting this out.
**This is also applicable if the Lions win one and tie one.
