Detroit has just a 9% implied chance to win the 2027 NFC Championship, so a no is far more likely given the field.
The Detroit Lions enter the 2026 season with a 9% implied probability of winning the NFC Championship, according to market pricing, as the franchise attempts to rebound from a 9-8 record that left it at the bottom of the NFC North in 2025. Detroit opened 5-2 last season before a Week 8 bye triggered a collapse that kept the team out of the playoffs in its first year after offensive coordinator Ben Johnson and defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn departed for head coaching jobs. The Lions have since installed Drew Petzing as offensive coordinator, and preseason odds placed Detroit at +1500 to win Super Bowl LXI, tied for best in the division among NFC North teams in June.

On-field results have supported the case for Detroit. In Week 8 of the 2026 season, the Lions handed the previously unbeaten Minnesota Vikings their first loss, with quarterback Jared Goff connecting with Jameson Williams for a late go-ahead touchdown in the division tilt. The win came at a cost: linebacker Jack Campbell sustained a serious injury that halted play for several minutes. At that point in the schedule, the NFC North stood to send all four teams to the playoffs, underscoring the difficulty of Detroit's path to a conference title. [Bleacher Report, Nov 1]
Analysts remain split on Detroit's ceiling. Preseason projections had the Lions battling Chicago for the division crown but falling short, while still flagging the roster as capable of a Super Bowl run under head coach Dan Campbell. Futures markets in October listed Detroit at +1500, behind NFC powers Seattle (+800), Los Angeles Rams (+900) and Green Bay (+1400). The detroit lions nfl nfc championship question now hinges on whether the Lions can convert division wins into postseason positioning, with the detroit lions nfl nfc championship odds reflecting a team viewed as a playoff contender rather than a conference favorite.
