The Detroit Lions and the playoffs don't go together like peanut butter and jelly. It's more like a peanut butter and onion sandwich.

There are some very respected NFL analysts who believe the Lions will indeed make the playoffs this season.
It all started with a tweet from NFL Network's Marc Sessler, "Plagued by a strange feeling: The Detroit @Lions are making the playoffs."
