Aaron Rodgers has made a career of destroying the Detroit Lions. He just handed them one more crushing defeat for the road, and it has a massive impact on the Green Bay Packers' playoff hopes.
The Packers' loss to the Chicago Bears opened the door for the Lions to close the gap, but Rodgers led his Pittsburgh Steelers to an upset win at Ford Field. It's significant. According to The Athletic's playoff simulator, Green Bay now has a 94 percent chance of reaching the postseason. Had the Lions won, it would've dropped the Packers' chances to just 70 percent.
