Week 15 was not kind to the Detroit Lions. Not only did they drop their game against the Buffalo Bills and suffer four season-ending injuries, but the teams the Lions needed to lose didn’t. Our Week 15 rooting guide went 0-7 on Sunday and Monday, and it’s left the Lions in a much tighter playoff race than the week prior. Here’s a look at the playoff standings through the entirety of the week.
NFC North:
- Lions: 12-2
- Vikings: 12-2
- Packers: 10-4
- Bears: 4-10
The Lions and Vikings are tied for the top of the NFC North, but Detroit currently holds the head-to-head tiebreaker due to their Week 7 win over the Vikings.
