Wild Card Round
As we have said, the Lions begin their quest for greatness on the road against the Seattle Seahawks. The Seahawks are a solid team, especially when playing at home, but they are also extremely banged up and have struggled down the stretch, losing three of their final six games. If the Lions can contain Russell Wilson and can give Matthew Stafford time to throw the ball, they will have a chance to pull off the upset.
Divisional Round
If the Lions can indeed beat the Seahawks in their own backyard, they will earn a rematch with the Dallas Cowboys. The Cowboys manhandled the Lions in their first go around, but this is the playoffs. If the Lions can slow down Ezekiel Elliott, then Cowboys rookie quarterback Dak Prescott will be forced to go out of his comfort zone in the biggest game of his life. Dallas would certainly be a heavy favorite in this rematch, but as long as Matthew Stafford is around, the Lions have a chance to do incredibly crazy things.
