A little less than a year ago, the Lions and Vikings met in one of the more anticipated regular-season games in NFL history. This one has far lower stakes.
I'm with those of you already looking forward to the off-season changes and new hope with the draft. Finishing last in the Division means we'll be playing the last place teams in two other divisions next season instead of the top teams. Hope springs eternal...
The NFL needs to not have any games on Christmas. Not looking forward to the next 6 months as another crummy Lion's season is over-analyzed, picked apart and second guessed. It does not matter. The 2025 season will have nothing to do with 2026.
The common denominator is injuries. Everyone in the league has them. But in the end, it's typically the healthiest teams that make it to the playoffs and get deep into it.
Chicago is looking great this year. They are also relatively healthy. As is LA. As is Seattle. It matters.
It also matters that you draft guys that do not come from a history of major injuries in college.

If the Lions play their cards right they can wrap this up.
New Year coming! New coaching staff? New roster? New hope. 68 years a Lions fan. Looking forward to the draft.
Ahhh…the irony of it all.🤣🤣
Glad you decided to stay home for this one Justin. Win or lose I don’t think we are going to miss anything by you enjoying egg nog on your couch 😂
The Lions are not the only team having a crappy year. The Vikes, Commanders, Chiefs, Ravens and Buccaneers have all taken a step back this year.

As of Dec. 3, Chicago had the most games lost to injury in the league. It's not just injury, but who is injured.
