All Hope’s Gone for the Lions

football-nflThe lions are 1-1-11 on the season, meaning that there’s no way they could get to the postseason no matter what happens in the remaining games. Still, finishing as the worst team in the league isn’t too horrible. The silver lining is that the worst team gets to choose first in the next year’s draft.

It’s not that the Lions want to finish at the bottom of the NFL rankings; it’s that they don’t have the quality to do better. This goes especially for their defense, which is the worst in their conference – they’ve conceded 354 points in the 13 games played so far.

Their defensive stats could get much, much worse this coming Sunday. It’s because they’re locking horns with one of the best offenses in the league.

Cards Looking to Rebound After a Loss in MNF

In Week 14, the Cardinals played a Monday Night Football game against their NFC West rivals, the Los Angeles Rams. The game was played in Glendale, but the hosts failed to win. The final score was 30-23 for the team from LA.

As a result, the Rams are just very close to the Cardinals in the divisional rankings. The Cards have a 10-3 record; the Rams are only slightly worse, with a 9-4 record.

What this means is that there’s a danger that Arizona could drop down to the second position and lose the divisional title, which, only a few weeks ago, seemed so close.

Arizona needs to be, at least, slightly concerned, as their fixture list isn’t that easy. Sure, the game with the Lions should be a walk in the park for them. However, after that game, they have to play against the Indianapolis Colts, Dallas Cowboys, and Seattle Seahawks.
