2. The schedule: They are halfway through what was supposed to be a soft spot in the schedule. In other words, they were winnable games against opponents with losing records.
It did not start well, with a 34-20 road loss to the division rival Vikings, who had a 2-5 record going into the game.
On Sunday the Lions got on the winning side of the ledger against a Washington team that was 2-6 going into the game, and 2-7 coming out.
Next up for the Lions is Sunday's road game against the Carolina Panthers, who are 3-7 with a five-game losing streak, followed by the traditional Thanksgiving Day game against the Houston Texans, who are 2-7.
What if the Lions take advantage of teams that are near the bottom in their division?
The opportunity is there – as it was other times when they failed to take advantage of it.
3. Home field: The Lions snapped a seven-game losing streak at Ford Field. What if they reverse form and start winning at home?
They should be favored to beat the Texans in their next home game, but the next three – Green Bay, Tampa Bay and Minnesota – will be considerably tougher.
