Every Season.

Les, you ok? Just checking in after that second half with the Bears yesterday… not exactly a hypertension friendly way to get the “W” for Lions fans.
 
Gut check time coming for the NFC North with the Lions, Packers & Viks probably heading to the playoffs.

Everyone plays everyone else in the division in the remaining few games although the Lions have to play the Bills, fortunately in Detroit, for a possible Super Bowl preview on Dec 15.
The Lions have quite a few injured starters. It’ll be interesting to see if they can continue on this roll.
 
Playing on only three days' rest before game day makes for some pretty funky football.
The Bears are four plays away from having a winning record. They have a lot of talent, but their coaches—particularly their now ex head coach—are complete morons.

The Lions are the real deal. They too have a lot of talent, but they also have great coaches who have earned the respect of their players. They’re my pick to win it all this year. And then maybe the Bears can lure the Lions’ OC to become their head coach.
 
At least you got the T-Day win. I thought you’d be headed to OT for sure. The ineptitude of the Bears in the last 30 seconds…you just can’t make this stuff up. How in the world did they not have a strict plan to call the TO and kick the FG to tie?!? Crazy. A win is a win. Nobody remembers the ugly ones at the end of the season anyway.
Some of the worst clock mismanagement I've ever seen, and I watch a lot of football! 33 seconds left when a play ends, and you have PLENTY of time to run a quick out OR TWO, then kick the field goal. Utter incompetence. I said this after the game... "that's the kind of inexcusable mistake that will get a coach fired." Guess I was right.

But on topic, the Lions are 11-1 for the first time in their history. Best team in the league at this point.
