This is just a question of curiousity.
I really hate it when teams from our division make the playoffs, cause they possess the knowledge over all other teams to have a shot at beating us.
I do not want the Lions in the playoffs.
It has nothing to do with Suh.
Even though we beat them in their house, quite comfortably, we still could lose to those guys. It don't matter, cause it's DIVISIONAL. I've seen divisional rivalries really destroy a good team. It's a double edged sword.
You can beat a team 3 times (Dallas in 2009) and then you can beat them twice and lose when it matters.
Sometime in 1989 or it may have been 1990, The Oilers swept the Steelers. They beat them down at home, and on the road, and won the Division with 10 wins. The Steelers some how crept into the playoffs at 9-7, and in the wild card round, they played the same Houston Oilers that swept them, and on top of that it was a playoff game in the dreadful "House of Pain", there was NO WAY the Oilers were going to lose at home to a team lucky to make the playoffs, but some how and some way, the Steelers kept the game very close, and it went into OT at 23-23 and ended with the Steelers winning.
I know the Lions have their weaknesses, but like i say, it's very hard to beat a team 3 times. When I seen them let the Vikings come back today, I was praying Minnesota may actually win, cause I do not want those sons of *****es in the playoffs what so ever. The Lions and the Saints are the only 2 teams in the NFC that scares me.
