The Lions' chances of making the 2025-26 playoffs are now estimated to be around 35% to 40%. Regarding the Wild Card, the Lions remain the top team in the bubble Week 15. Detroit holds the No. 8 spot in the NFC, but after wins from the Bears, 49ers and Seahawks, the deficit has become larger.

Matthew Stafford is an NFL quarterback. He has played for the Detroit Lions since he entered the league in 2009. He has made the Pro Bowl at least once.

With the Rams winning and the Patriots losing, Matthew Stafford has pulled away from Drake Maye, but reigning MVP Josh Allen isn't done yet.

Arguably the best matchup on Sunday's Week 15 NFL slate comes in the late afternoon window when the Detroit Lions head out west to face the Los Angeles Rams, bringing Jared Goff and Matthew Stafford face to face with their old franchises.

The Detroit Lions know what it takes to compete with the best in the loaded NFC after a 41-34 loss to the conference-leading Los Angeles Rams on Sunday
