We've reached Week 11 of the NFL season, which means the stretch run to the playoffs and the NFC North title is in full swing.
Where does Detroit, Minnesota, Green Bay and Chicago stand in the division and the NFC playoff picture heading into the final two months of the season? Let's take a look:
DETROIT
Record: 8-1
Current playoff seed: No. 1
Wins: vs. Los Angeles Rams (26-20), at Arizona (20-13), vs. Seattle (42-29), at Dallas (47-9), at Minnesota (31-29), vs. Tennessee (52-14), at Green Bay (24-14), at Houston (26-23)
Loss: vs. Tampa Bay (20-16)
Remaining opponents: vs. Jacksonville (2-8), at Indianapolis (4-6), vs. Chicago (4-5), vs. Green Bay (6-3), vs. Buffalo (8-2), at Chicago (4-5), at San Francisco (5-4), vs. Minnesota (7-2)
Remaining opponent record: 40-35
Twentyman: Sunday was a gritty win for the Lions overcoming five turnovers by the offense and a 23-7 halftime deficit to record their seventh straight win and fifth straight on the road.
This is a confident group that's proving they can win games in all three phases. They just completed the hardest stretch of their schedule unblemished with four of their last five on the road and now get four of their next five at Ford Field.
This group has all the makings of a team that can earn the No. 1 seed in the NFC playoff picture, play deep into January and find themselves in the Super Bowl in New Orleans in February.
MINNESOTA
Record: 7-2
Current playoff seed: No. 5
Wins: New York Giants (28-6), San Francisco (23-17), Houston (34-7), Green Bay (31-29), New York Jets (23-17), Indianapolis (21-13), Jacksonville (12-7)
Losses: Detroit (31-29), Los Angeles Rams (30-20)
Remaining opponents: at Tennessee (2-7), at Chicago (4-5), vs. Arizona (6-4), vs. Atlanta (6-4), vs. Chicago (4-5), at Seattle (4-5), vs. Green Bay (6-3), at Detroit (8-1)
Remaining opponent record: 40-34
Twentyman: The Vikings played their worst game of the season in Jacksonville Sunday but were able to make the plays in the end to secure the win. It's what good teams do. Quarterback Sam Darnold has thrown five interceptions vs. three touchdowns over his last two games but the Vikings have won both games against the Jaguars and Colts.
Minnesota's defense has held six opponents to under 20 points this season. On Sunday, Jacksonville's offense had six drives of three or fewer plays, averaged 3.1 yards on the ground and 3.3 overall, and Minnesota forced turnovers on Jacksonville's final three possessions to win the game.
It's setting up for a Week 18 matchup between the Vikings and Lions at Ford Field on Jan. 5 with huge implications in the NFC and NFC North.
GREEN BAY
Record: 6-3
Current playoff seed: No. 7
Wins: Indianapolis (16-10), Tennessee (30-14), Los Angeles Rams (24-19), Arizona (34-13), Houston (24-22), Jacksonville (30-27)
Losses: Philadelphia (34-29), Minnesota (31-29), Detroit (24-14)
Remaining opponents: at Chicago (4-5), vs. San Francisco (5-4), vs. Miami (3-6), at Detroit (8-1), at Seattle (4-5), vs. New Orleans (3-7), at Minnesota (7-2), vs. Chicago (4-5)
Remaining opponent record: 38-35
Twentyman: The Packers are fresh off their bye week and hit the road with a division matchup in Chicago Week 11. Green Bay's three losses to Detroit, Minnesota and Philadelphia are against three teams with a combined record of 22-5. This is a Packers team very capable of putting a streak of wins together to be right in the thick of the race in the division come December and January.

CHICAGO
Record: 4-5
Current playoff seed: No. 10
Wins: Tennessee (24-17), Los Angeles Rams (24-18), Carolina (36-10), Jacksonville (35-16)
Losses: Houston (19-13), Indianapolis (21-16), Washington (18-15), Arizona (29-9), New England (19-3)
Remaining opponents: vs. Green Bay (6-3), vs. Minnesota (7-2), at Detroit (8-1), at San Francisco (5-4), at Minnesota (7-2), vs. Detroit (8-1), vs. Seattle (4-5), at Green Bay (6-3)
Remaining opponent record: 51-21
Twentyman: It's been a tough three-week stretch for the Bears with losses to Washington, Arizona and New England where they've scored a total of 27 points and have failed to score a touchdown in their last two. Chicago is struggling to protect rookie quarterback Caleb Williams (nine sacks vs. Patriots) and it's been a rough few weeks for this year's No. 1 overall pick. It doesn't get any easier for Chicago, with two games against Minnesota and Detroit still on the docket plus games at San Francisco and Green Bay.
