Glover Quin Analyzes Lions' Playoff Path on Bleav in Lions Podcast
In an engaging conversation with Jack Cavanaugh on the Bleav in Lions podcast, former Detroit Lions safety Glover Quin delved into the possibilities of the Lions making a significant playoff run. Quin, known for his deep understanding of the game, shared valuable insights into the potential scenarios that could unfold for the Lions in the upcoming postseason.
One of the key points Quin highlighted was the importance of securing the 2nd seed in the NFC. This coveted position would have a significant impact on the Lions' playoff journey, particularly in their quest to make a deep playoff run. If they can attain the 2nd seed, it would mean that the Philadelphia Eagles would have to travel to Detroit for a playoff game. Hosting a playoff matchup at home could provide a crucial advantage for the Lions.
Quin also outlined the Lions' potential playoff path if they secure the 2nd seed. With this positioning, the Lions would only be required to hit the road for the NFC Championship game, potentially facing the San Francisco 49ers. Quin expressed confidence that the weather conditions should not pose a significant challenge throughout the playoffs, enhancing the Lions' chances of success.
To secure the 2nd seed and potentially even claim the 1st seed, the Lions face some critical matchups ahead. Quin pointed out that beating the Minnesota Vikings twice and performing well in a primetime clash against the Dallas Cowboys would be essential steps in securing a high seed for the playoffs.
The Lions are currently a 3-point favorite against the Vikings according to BetOnline.
