Detroit Lions Form

Detroit head to Philadelphia looking to build on last week’s victory at Washington, which improved their record to 6-3.

The Lions made a losing start to the season as they fell 27-13 in Green Bay, but they responded in emphatic fashion with a 52-21 blowout of Chicago in their home opener.

They backed that up with a 38-30 win in Baltimore, and then beat Cleveland 34-10 at home and Cincinnati 37-24 on the road.

Detroit’s run was ended by a 30-17 defeat in Kansas City, and they then failed to back up the 24-9 victory over Tampa Bay as they lost 27-24 to Minnesota.

The Lions once again rebounded quickly from a loss though, as they downed Washington 44-22 last weekend.

Philadelphia Eagles Form

Philadelphia enter this big Sunday night clash riding a three-game win streak that has put them in pole position for the number one seeding at 7-2.

The Eagles opened with a 24-20 victory over Dallas, and backed that up by winning 20-17 at Kansas City in a rematch from last season’s Super Bowl.

They took their run to four games with a 33-26 win over the Los Angeles Rams and a 31-25 victory at Tampa Bay, before finally seeing their perfect start end with a 21-17 loss to Denver.

Philadelphia then suffered a shock 34-17 defeat at the New York Giants, but they have not lost since.

The Eagles got back on track with a 28-22 win in Minnesota, and backed that up by beating the New York Giants 38-20 and Green Bay 10-7.

Verdict

Detroit issued a solid response to the loss to Minnesota, but they are yet to beat a team with a winning record on the road this season.

Philadelphia have re-tooled their defense and prior to last week the offense was showing plenty of promise, so we are backing the Eagles in what could be an NFC Championship Game preview.
