The Detroit Lions are riding high on their impressive win over the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, January 5, with a 31-9 victory. That win secured them the top seed in the NFC and NFC North, plus home playoff games through the Big Game.
Now, the Lions have to wait. They skip the Wild Card round and have a bye week before taking on their next opponent, who will be determined by the outcome of the Wild Card playoffs.
As the Lions wait, things will be a bit different, though, since a historic NFL change is affecting the team’s playoff run.
