Lions' Playoff Hopes Hinge on Trench Warfare

The Detroit Lions playoff hopes hinge on their ability to dominate the trenches, both offensively and defensively. With just three weeks left, they need to win out and get help to secure a postseason spot. Their recent loss against the Rams exposed their weakness in stopping the run, a problem that has plagued them all season. The Lions are six and one when they hold opponents under one hundred rushing yards, but theyve allowed over that mark in six games already. On offense, theyre eight and zero when rushing for over one hundred yards, but zero and six when they fall short. Getting their running backs, Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery, rolling could unlock their potential. Looking ahead to their remaining games, the Lions must dominate the line of scrimmage to have a chance at the playoffs.
