Moon Stats for Lions at Chiefs

The Lions will be playing the Chiefs during a Waning Gibbous moon. The Lions are 5-2 on these moons in the last two years. The interesting part of that is that both of those losses came in the playoffs. Looking ahead, there is one waning gibbous game in the playoffs this year, and that's the Super Bowl. Moon stats have been pretty firm lately, but things do break, and the Lions could still pull through. We'll see what happens. The February moon is different from the January moon. The Lions have never seen a February moon before.

History between Lions and Chiefs

This will be the 16th matchup between the Lions and Chiefs. The Lions are 6-9 against Kansas City. Interestingly enough, the Lions have never lost to the Chiefs when Dan Campbell is on the sideline. They beat them in 2023 with Campbell as a coach and then beat them in 2007 with Dan Campbell as a player.
