Why are people giving a team built on grit so much motivation entering this weekend?

I cannot get it through my mind why analysts and other players are writing off this team that has shown they will fight and claw for a playoff spot so much motivation and fight entering Sunday. Even if the Seahawks win, the Lions have lost to Rodgers and the Pack in so many ways that just ending his season would be good enough for this team.

Pat McAfee on Tuesday saying he hopes the Lions lose. The entire ESPN panel choosing the Pack to win. The narrative of this basically being a dead Lions team for the entire week.

At this point, don’t even game plan. Just show your team the clips and articles and merrily watch as they bite some Wisconsin kneecaps on Sunday. Go Lions and FTP.
