Another Detroit Lion Streak...Outside Cold Temp in Nov/Dec

I was thinking, you know it has been an absolute misery to root for the Detroit Lions for the past 10 years. Then I thought, when was the last time the Lions actually won a road game in November or December where the location is a typical cold temperature city .

I created a spreadsheet with all the scores for the past 10 miserable years and guess what.....no win in Nov or Dec in a cold temp city!

So we go back to the year 2000. Nov 17, 2000, At Meadowlands Stadium in New Jersey, the Lions beat the Jets 10-7. A few weeks earlier they also beat the NY Giants in New Jersey for a double dose of NY road wins.

What about other cold weather cities not NY based teams? Well....we gotta go wayyy back....

Well in 1997, The Lions beat the Vikings at the Metrodome (INDOORS), but that was not outside! So we gotta go back!....

1995! NOVEMBER 19, 1995 At Chicago vs. the Bears! 24-17 WIN!

Hard to believe!
