December 31, 1983 - The Lions lose a heartbreaker in the playoffs to the San Francisco 49ers. Leading in the fourth quarter, the Lions watch Joe Montana lead his team to a touchdown to take a 24-23 edge.
QB Gary Danielson orchestrates a drive in the last minute to set up a game-winning 43-yard field goal, but Eddie Murray misses and Detroit loses.
Billy Sims scores two touchdowns in the loss.

December 31, 1994 - The Lions lose to the Packers for the second straight season in the playoffs, 16-12 in Green Bay.
Running back Barry Sanders is stymied and never able to get going as the wild card Lions finish another disappointing playoff season.

Here's what's on the line Sunday night for the Lions.
The beautiful, 15-year-old downtown Detroit stadium has hosted a Super Bowl, a men's Final Four and Frozen Four, Wrestle Mania, Taylor Swift, bull riding, and Kid Rock's 40th birthday party, but it's never hosted a Lions playoff game.
It'll be a Ford Field first if the Lions can beat the Packers.
