Where we have them finishing

Why

The Lions will be looking to have a bounce back season after injuries were the narrative for this team all season. The biggest question will be really if the O line can stay healthy. Losing Monty is tough for this team, but gives Gibbs the reins to fully take over in big scenarios and goal line stands
— Nick, 13-4
The Lions were one 4th down away from flipping multiple Ls to Ws last season, and I think their luck is bound to change. You know what the offense is going to give you, but Hutch returning to the D-line is massive for this defense. CB will be continue to be an issue for this team.
— Nico, 11-6
I’m buying high on Detroit. They scored 28.3 PPG (4th) last year, led by Goff, Amon-Ra and Gibbs, but the defense fell apart and some brutal game-time decisions cost them winnable games. Getting Hutchinson and LaPorta back healthy is huge, and Gibbs is now the clear focal point of the backfield. I don’t see another 9-8. A hopeful 12-5.
— Brooklyn, 13-4
