After months of speculation, DeAndre Levy returned and played well for a large portion of last week’s 20-17 win over the Bears.
With the win, the Detroit Lions are in the driver’s seat at 9-4, and currently tied for the second best record in the NFC. All is not well, though, as I wrote Sunday, Matthew Stafford’s finger is a slight cause for concern. He may not look like himself until the Green Bay game.
The Lions could drop both of the next two games (Sunday against the 9-4 New York Giants and the following Monday against the 11-2 Dallas Cowboys) and still have a chance to win the division in that final Green Bay game.
