Do the Lions have to keep pace with the Packers?

Just wanted to know if they are going to start resting guys or do they still have to stay ahead of the Packers?

They need to keep winning to get home field and the division.
They are guarenteed a wild card.

That is what I thought and pretty sure they would rather win the division. I just wasn't 100% sure on the situation.

Both Gbay & Lions win today, both go to 11-4, then both play each other possibly next Sunday night on the flex schedule for the division title .......Lions won the 1st game.......

Huge game for the Lions & Gbay today, & of course next week.......

Look for Chicago to give Detroit some trouble today.. FOrte will get the ball 20+ times. He's tough to stop.

Detroit doesnt HAVE to win. THey are in the playoffs and the division title is up for grabs next week. Det has an outside chance at the 1 seed but would take a miracle

Bigger for GB then DET. No matter the result of either game DET is playing for the division next week. DET clinches today with win n GB loss
