Sunday open thread: Can the Lions end their playoff win drought next year?

On Saturday, the Cincinnati Bengals outlasted the Las Vegas Raiders, ending their 31-year playoff win drought. Now, the Lions hold the longest current streak at 30 years, dating back to January 1992 when they dismantled the Dallas Cowboys.

The Bengals and Lions both have had their chances throughout the years, but finally, the current Bengals regime has put together some really solid pieces like bringing in Joe Burrow as their franchise QB and quickly developing talent around him, to pair with an already solid defense. The Lions are trying to do the same, but they were still in the process of washing away the stink left behind from the previous regime.
