Christmas Eve NFL Open Thread (The Lions can clinch a playoff spot)
Lots of big games today, none bigger that the Lions hosting the Chargers today, with a playoff spot on the line. Among the other big games today with playoff implications include.
Giants vs Jets
Philadelphia vs Dallas
Oakland vs Kansas City
San Francisco vs Seattle
Arizona vs Cincinnati
Also of interest, is that the Andrew Luck lottery got very interesting with the Colts WINNING on Thursday. Making it three teams that have two losses, going into the last two weeks of the season. The Colts have the tie breaker at this point, because their opponents winning percentage is the lowest. With the Vikings and Rams playing out the season, and the Colts playing the hapless Jaguars, the NFL draft just got real interesting. If the Rams end up with the first pick they will of course be trading out. The Vikings however, were they to lose out, would have a very interesting debate on the first pick.
Anyway, Merry Christmas to all of you, and may you enjoy a great day of football. To you Lions fans, may we all see today, what has alluded us for a decade.

With a win like this against a streaking Charger team I'm sure there will be some teams out there a little worried about facing the Lions in the playoffs.
