Looking at the rest of the current top teams in the NFL and their records against teams that currently hold a winning record:

  • Eagles (9-1) are 4-0

  • Ravens (8-3) are 4-2

  • Chiefs (7-3) are 3-2

  • 49ers (7-3) are 3-2

  • Jaguars (7-3) are 1-3

  • Cowboys (7-3) are 0-2

  • Dolphins (7-3) are 0-3

Part of the Lions’s low record against winning teams is due to a weaker NFC North this season (although Vikings currently hold a winning record and Lions have yet to play them). But it still stands that the Lions have had a relatively weaker schedule this year, and have not defeated a team with a current winning record since Week 1.

This stands to change with upcoming games against the Vikings (6-5) and Cowboys (7-3), as well as possibly the Broncos and Saints (5-5) depending on how their records turn out.

    There is more parity this year than usual and no clear cut dominant team. Every contender has it’s issues. Even Philly at 9-1 hasn’t beat any team by more than 14 pts. I think the 2022 Eagles beat this year’s version. Long story short any given Sunday and the playoffs are gonna be wild this year. Lions are legit, Dallas is legit, SF is legit… Same with Cleveland, Jacksonville, Houston etc in the AFC.
