The Lions are on the outside of the NFC playoff picture entering Week 16. Here's a look at their playoff chances and scenarios.

Aaron Rodgers, on what it was like hearing the crowd go from cheering to groaning at the end of the game: “Hate to see it.”

Aaron Rodgers and the Pittsburgh Steelers defeated Jared Goff and the Detroit Lions 29–24 on the road Sunday as Detroit's postseason hopes continued to fade.

Unfortunately, due to a lack of run game and a lack of offense in the third quarter, the game came down to a last second drive where a controversial offensive pass interference negated a Jared Goff touchdown via lateral. The Lions fell to the Steelers 29-24.

Jared Goff took a similar approach, crediting the referees for having a tough job, but saying he felt the first one on Isaac TeSlaa was more open “to interpretation.” TeSlaa was called for the penalty as Amon-Ra St. Brown caught what would have been the go-ahead 1-yard touchdown with 25 seconds left.
