Sunday’s loss to the Dallas Cowboys was the third in a row for the Detroit Lions. The defeat dropped Detroit to 3-6-1, but it did move the team up in the 2020 NFL Draft order.
The loss moved the Lions into the No. 10 overall spot. Cleveland’s win on Thursday night pushed the Browns to 4-6 and a better record than the Lions, who sat at No. 11 entering Week 11.
This week’s Lions opponent, the Washington Redskins, currently sits at No. 2 overall with their 1-9 record. There are five other teams with three wins, including the 3-7-1 Arizona Cardinals. Based on strength of schedule, the Lions would win the tiebreaker with the Cardinals (whom they tied) and get the higher draft pick if they both wind up with the same record.
