NFL Week 14 kicks off tonight with significant playoff implications as the Dallas Cowboys head to Detroit to take on the Lions on Thursday Night Football.
If the playoffs began today, both teams would be out of the picture. The Lions currently stand at 7-5, just on the brink of making the playoffs, while the Cowboys follow closely with a record of 6-5-1. A win for the Lions this evening would elevate their playoff odds to 54%, but if they lose, those chances would drop to 19%.
On the other hand, a victory for the Cowboys would give them a 35% chance of entering the playoffs, while a loss would severely reduce it to just 8%.
