Detroit Lions: Week 15 NFL Power Rankings (#27)

Last week: 26 (-1)

Record: 4-9

Net points per drive: 0.09 (14th)

DVOA: 2.3% (13th)

Weighted DVOA: -2.4% (12th)

Detroit took another step towards being this year’s team that goes from a playoff spot to 5 wins or fewer by losing to the Lions and dropping to 4-9. 1-2 over their final 3 games clinches that and only next week’s game against the Cardinals offers an easy game. I don’t think see beating the Falcons or Bears.
