The Lions improved to 4-5 on the season after a nail-biting 30-27 win over Washington on Sunday in Detroit.
While most would consider Detroit’s season a disappointment, they are still lingering in the NFC playoff picture. The folks over at FiveThirtyEight give the Lions a 9% chance to make the playoffs after this win.
The Lions have two very winnable games up next on their scheduling, traveling to play the Panthers in Week 11 and hosting the Texans in Week 12.
With the Lions, however, nothing is guaranteed. The good news is that star wide receiver Kenny Golladay should be back in Week 11 after missing the last two games with a hip injury.
