Here's the Lions' path to the Super Bowl: - win in Dallas and home vs Minnesota - Rams upset Niners in season finale to give Lions the #1 seed - All home teams win in NFC wildcard round while Lions rest at home with bye - Lions host and beat NFC South champion in divisional round while Philly upsets SF - Lions host and beat Philly in NFC championship game while anyone other than Baltimore wins AFC - Lions beat AFC winner in Super Bowl

We weren’t the only ones talking about that call. Sure, they likely would have made the 1st down if it had been 4th and 1/2 a yard, but probably by doing a plunge that would have taken another 10 seconds or so off the clock before they could then spike it.

Made the Bo-Woody 10 Year War even more of a focal point. Because nothing else was happening.

Anyone know the significant of "It's A Lock" on the Lions' t-shirts? Is there a Lions' significance to that phrase?

Denver led New England 7-3 at halftime. NE scored 20 consecutive points in the 3rd quarter. Denver has scored 16 consecutive points in the 4th quarter. 23-23 with 2:53 to go, Patriots to get the ball.

And if you loosen the standard to conference finals or more, even better and longer for almost 20 years: 1995: Red Wings 1996: Red Wings 1997: Red Wings 1998: Red Wings 1999: None 2000: None 2001: None 2002: Red Wings 2003: Pistons 2004: Pistons 2005: Pistons 2006: Tigers, Pistons 2007: Red Wings, Pistons 2008: Red Wings, Pistons 2009: Red Wings 2010: None 2011: Tigers 2012: Tigers 2013: Tigers

The Lions went 11-3 in 1962, 12-4 in 1991 and 11-5 in 2014. If you count postseason games, the Lions won 11 in 1952 (9-3 plus conference championship game win plus NFL championship game win) and won 11 in 1953 (10-2 plus NFL championship game win). The Lions have never won more than 12 regular season games and including playoff games have only won 13 games or more once (1991; 12-4 plus divisional playoff game win).

It was approaching the longest ever. Plenty of regular season division titles (or regular season league titles) by Tigers, Wings or Lions between 1934-1957. Went 8 years between 1957 (Lions) and 1965 (Wings). Went 11 years between 1972 (Tigers) and 1983 (Lions). Plenty by the Tigers, Pistons, Wings (and even a couple by the Lions) between 1984 and 2014.

The Lions played ahead most of the game, had a two score game reduced to a one score game with under 10 minutes to go, and then a huge interception deep in Lions' territory sealed a 30-24 victory. Same score as Michigan-OSU.

I think I understand what you're saying. On Tuesday morning, if the Eagles win tomorrow they will appear in the standings ahead of the Lions for the #2 seed, but since the LIons' opponents the final 2 weeks (Cowboys, Vikings) have better records than the Eagles' remaining opponents (Cardinals, Giants) the Lions can leapfrog the Eagles by winning out?

I think if the Patriots lose out there is still a chance they could steal the #1 pick from Carolina (aka the Bears').

Dolphins win on last second FG!

Dak took a sack at 1st and goal from the 1/2 yard line, pushed the Cowboys back to the 7. But got the TD on a great 3rd down catch so now up by 1 with 3 1/2 minutes to go. For the Lions to clinch the 2 seed going into Week 18, Philly also would have to lose a game along the way.

Meh, the Vikings are 7-8, all the Lions did is beat a team with a losing record, lol.

Why similar situation Michigan faced against Ohio State at the end of this years game

1st down on the flag!

Vikings using their timeouts early.

Seahawks take the lead with a minute to go. I still care, just in case.

Expect at least one more hiccup.

Titans re-take 4 pt lead with 3 1/2 minutes to go.
