After their 34-17 road win this afternoon over the Bears, the Lions got some help by way of the Washington Commanders who beat the Eagles 36-34 giving Detroit some breathing room in the race for the top spot in the NFC.
The moment the Commanders went ahead was captured during Dan Campbell postgame presser when you can hear the Lions’ locker room erupt in the background.
Not only are the Lions still trying to maintain a lead over the Eagles, but they also have the Vikings right behind them in an equally tight NFC North.
