fan. Not only is it a rare December in which we can talk about playoff odds—even if they remain long—but the draftniks among us can also dream of a top-five draft pick thanks to the Los Angeles Rams (+7.5)’ struggles (Baker Mayfielding aside).
Last week wasn’t a particularly great week for the Rooting Guide, and after the Rams pulled off an improbable comeback on Thursday, this week isn’t off to a great start either. The good news is the Lions are winning, and that’s primarily what needs to continue to happen for Detroit to get a shot at the postseason.
