NFL Week 14 Sunday games discussion thread, Detroit Lions talk
Pride of Detroit Pride of Detroit

There aren’t many better feelings on a football Sunday than the relaxed comfort that a huge Thursday night win provides. The Detroit Lions are 8-5 and just a game-and-a-half out of a playoff spot. By the end of the day, the Lions are essentially guaranteed to be no more than a single game out of the postseason. Lions fans can just relax knowing that no matter what happens on Sunday, Detroit’s playoff hopes are suddenly as alive as ever.

Of course, there are some favorable outcomes that will help the Lions, too. You can check those out in our Week 14 Detroit Lions rooting guide.

This post, however, is just to chat while the 1 p.m. ET games are going on. Here’s what that group of games looks like in Week 14:

1 p.m. ET games

  • Seahawks at Falcons — FOX
  • Bengals at Bills — FOX
  • Titans at Browns — FOX
  • Commanders at Vikings — FOX
  • Dolphins at Jets — CBS
  • Saints at Buccaneers — CBS
  • Colts at Jaguars — CBS
  • Steelers at Ravens — CBS

Admittedly, there’s really only one game that matters for the Lions, and that’s the first one listed. Root for the Falcons to upset the Seahawks.

But there are some intriguing AFC matchups in the early set. Colts vs. Jaguars and Steelers vs. Ravens will both decide who leaders their respective division. High-stakes football is always fun to watch, even if it doesn’t involve the Lions.

The real NFC fireworks come in the late window. We will have a separate thread for the Bears vs. Packers game at 4:25 p.m. ET. Around that time, make sure you head to our front page for that discussion post.
