Los Angeles Rams Form
Los Angeles won seven of their eight games after the bye week to finish 10-7 and seal a return to the playoffs.
The Rams’ season appeared to be over when they went into their weekend off having lost six of their first nine games of the season.
They turned things around after the in-season break though, sparking a three-game win streak with a 17-16 win over Seattle, which was back up by a 37-14 victory at Arizona and a 36-19 win over Cleveland.
Los Angeles’ run was halted by a 37-31 overtime loss in Baltimore, but they immediately rebounded with a 28-20 victory over Washington.
The Rams then beat New Orleans 30-22, before heading out on the road to down the New York Giants, 26-25, and San Francisco, 21-20.
Detroit Lions Form
Detroit finished the regular season with a 12-5 record, securing their first ever NFC North title.
The Lions had not won a division crown since the realignment, but made a roaring start to the season by upsetting defending champions Kansas City on the road on opening night, 21-20.
They went on to win to win five of their next seven games to enter the bye week at 6-2, and although they lost a few games after their return, a division title did not appear to be in doubt.

The Lions then responded to a 20-19 loss in Dallas with a 30-20 victory over Minnesota in their regular season finale.
