Last year the Lions were 1-6 heading into week 9. They went 8-2 the rest of the way. Which team, with a horrible record right now, do you think will finish the season off strong and be a spoiler along the way?

Last year the Dolphins were 8-3 heading into week 13 and then finished off with 5 straight losses, almost missing the playoffs. Which team, with a great record right now, do you think will end the year with a bad streak of losses?

My fear is that my Lions are about to come up against a bunch of bad losses. 5 divisional games (which always can go either way) two of which are against the Vikings who are putting together a streak and getting healthy plus 2 more against the Bears who have a mobile QB that seem to give the Lions D fits. Plus the Cowboys! Maybe its the 30 year Detroit fan in me expecting the worst, but I fear them even losing the division. Its set up too perfectly for us Lions fans to have the proverbial “ball pulled out by Lucy” in week 16-18.

    Ravens and Eagles both have really tough schedules remaining. I dont think either collapses or misses the playoffs but I think both will drop a couple more games than expected the rest of the way and fall to WC spots rather than division winners.

    I only have a few hours before the harsh reality sets in but let’s just say the Bears run the table!

    And Cowboys are 6-3, so let’s pick the low hanging fruit and say they’re 8-9 by the end of the season

    I’ve said it once I’ll say it again the jets limp to getting Aaron Rodgers back win 4 games to go 11-6 and win the Super Bowl

    At worst Detroit splits the divisional games. 2-3 in that stretch wouldn’t kill them.

    Not sure if they count any more but Texans. Check out their schedule. I think they can make noise in the AFC.

    5 divisional games (which always can go either way)

    The rest of the division is literal diarrhea. Lions got the division under lock and key
