The Detroit Lions no longer have the NFL's worst record, and while some fans would rather have the top pick in the draft, the Lions would enjoy some time out of the league cellar.

Detroit has won two of its last three games and has actually been very competitive since its bye in Week 9. The Lions also had a tie and two close losses during that stretch and will look to remain on the upswing when they visit the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday.

"Things are coming together the way you want them to and now we've got to keep getting better," Detroit coach Dan Campbell said. "You'd like to think we can continue down this road."
