Sunday’s impressive 34-23 win over the Minnesota Vikings elevated the Detroit Lions to a 6-7 record. The Week 14 win also pushed Detroit’s season point differential (points scored vs. points allowed) into the positive. Detroit is now a plus-2 on the season.
That might not seem like something to brag about, but it’s been more than a little while since Detroit had a positive point differential this late in a season. Five years, to be exact.
