ALLEN PARK, Mich. — The Detroit Lions are coming off their best season in generations, earning two playoff victories in one postseason for the first time since winning the 1957 NFL title. The Lions are one of four franchises that haven't reached the Super Bowl, but they're No. 4 among favorites to reach the championship game, according to BetMGM Sportsbook. It's easy to see what oddsmakers like about Detroit. The Lions have won 20 of their last 27 games in the regular season and are coming off a closely contested loss in the NFC championship game at San Francisco.
