ALLEN PARK, Mich. (AP) – The Detroit Lions like to call themselves an indoor team with an outdoor mentality.
Now it’s time to put that mantra to the test.
Needing one win to clinch a playoff spot, the Lions will play at Chicago on Sunday against the struggling Bears. Although Detroit is heavily favored the weekend, the price for a loss could be severe: The regular-season finale the following weekend is at Green Bay, where the Lions have not won since 1991.
Detroit plays its home games indoors at Ford Field, but the race for postseason position will come down to two outdoor games against division rivals, in potentially difficult conditions.
