The Detroit Lions have recently made the decision to withdraw a proposed rule change regarding NFL playoff seeding, which would have altered the way home playoff games are determined. The proposal suggested that only the division winner with the best record would be guaranteed a home playoff game, with the remaining playoff teams seeded strictly by their overall records. In contrast, the existing format ensures that all division winners automatically secure a home game, irrespective of their records. NFL owners were scheduled to vote on this proposal during their upcoming spring meeting.
The Detroit Lions have decided to withdraw their playoff seeding rule proposal, moving away from a system that would have prioritized records over division standings for home game guarantees.
The proposal aimed to ensure that only the division winner with the best overall record would secure a home playoff game, unlike the current format.
