00:00We're gonna put our focus here on the NFC and with the odds to win the conference at

00:07the FanDuel Sportsbook, who's in the lead?

00:09It's the Philadelphia Eagles at a plus 220 price, followed by the Lions, Packers, Vikings,

00:13Buccaneers and the Rams.

00:14But if we are focusing on right now, if the season ended today, the number one seed would

00:19go to the Detroit Lions.

00:21Their finishing schedule at the Chicago Bears, which you might say should be an easy victory,

00:25but this is now a bagged up Lions team that's used to playing in a dome all season long,

00:29going into the Windy City to try to take on a division rival, followed by at San Francisco,

00:34quite frankly, is bagged up, but still in it in the NFC West to win it and get a possible

00:39playoff spot.

00:40And then that Titanic battle against the Minnesota Vikings.

00:43Let's quickly start here with the Lions.

00:44To me, the best team in the NFL, but I got to be honest, right now, Dubzy, they're not

00:50the best team in the NFL.

00:51They're the most injured team in the NFL.

00:55Most injured team in the NFL.

00:56Big Hutch telling us that he's going to be back, ready to go if they make the Super Bowl.

01:01Please, my guy, take it easy.

01:03But getting set to square off against the Bears, who, look, Caleb Williams, I'm not

01:08the biggest fan of, but I can just feel there's a breakout game coming from the Bears and

01:12you're going into their building.

01:14That's going to be a tough environment to play in for the 49ers.

01:17They're still right there in the division.

01:19I can't figure out how, but I guess, you know, a couple of other teams have made that possible

01:24for them and they're going to have that motivation in Santa Clara and the Vikings, who are playing

01:28some really good football at this time of year as well.

01:31So, look, Detroit are playing with a lot of momentum.

01:33They didn't get the win last week, but I don't really think that's going to be enough to

01:38deter them.

01:39But it's injuries, it's the pressure, and it's the decisions being made by Dan Campbell

01:44at clutch times.

01:45You know, it's similar to what we highlighted prior to the break.

01:48You can score plenty of points.

01:50We've seen that from Josh Allen, the Bills, we've seen it from the Lions, but that's not

01:53how the playoffs is going to go, Donnie.

01:55It's not going to be a 44 to 42 kind of track meet affair.

01:59It's going to be a low scorer where the defense has to get it done and you've got to make

02:03the right decisions at the right times.

02:06Everyone is going to be primed up to their best and I guess that would be the concern

02:10for me.

02:11Injuries and making those critical decisions going against a lot tougher teams and they're

02:15going to get a really tough test trying to close out the regular season.
