As of late the Lions and Saints have had themselves somewhat of a mini rivalry. The two teams have faced off three times in since 2011. One game being a Sunday night game where tempers flared and the Lions dug themselves into a deep hole with penalties. Of course the Lions would face off against the Saints in the playoffs later that same season and blow a first half lead in embarrassing fashion. Then finally the Lions knocked off the Saints at home in 2014 in magical comeback win late in the fourth quarter.
One thing we can say bout this upcoming game is that both teams have nothing to lose.
