Since head coach Dan Campbell took over the Detroit Lions sidelines, the team has been on a meteoric rise that culminated in the franchise’s first home playoff game in decades.
The Lions dispatched the Los Angeles Rams in the Wild Card Round and later beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to advance to the NFC Championship Game.
Although Detroit crumbled down the stretch against the San Francisco 49ers, their season should still be considered a massive success and a harbinger of things to come.

Quarterback Jared Goff led the Detroit Lions to a sensational 2023 season, as the Lions won the NFC North with a 12-5 record and came within minutes of clinching a spot in Super Bowl LVIII.
They have a relatively young core, which means they should have a good chance of finishing first in their division and making another deep playoff run this coming season.
In fact, Jordan Schultz said on FS1’s “Speak” that Goff will be the next NFL QB to win his first Super Bowl championship.

For most of their history, the Detroit Lions have been a bottom-feeding and struggling franchise.
That’s no longer the case.
Some people laughed at Dan Campbell and his passion at first, but the former player has built a strong winning culture in Michigan.
Now, on top of that, the Lions will don a fresh look when they take the field to keep at their winning ways.
NFL insider Ari Meirov took to Twitter to share the new Lions uniforms, which were leaked earlier on Thursday morning.

Not so long ago, Jared Goff’s NFL career seemed to be hanging by a thread.
The former No. 1 pick struggled to find consistency with the Los Angeles Rams, and plenty of people blamed him for their inability to get over the hump and win a Super Bowl.
That only got worse when the Rams won the Super Bowl in Matthew Stafford’s first season with the organization, making it seem as if it had always been his fault.
Goff, however, has been very good since being traded to the Detroit Lions.
That’s why it’s not much of a surprise to see that they want to keep ..read more

The Detroit Lions and Los Angeles Rams pulled off one of the most significant trades in NFL history.
The Rams traded the farm to acquire Matthew Stafford, taking him away from the Lions and winning his first career Super Bowl.
Since Stafford led the Rams to a Super Bowl victory in his first year as the starter, he has been commonly regarded as the winner of this trade.
The Rams won the Super Bowl, giving him another chance to highlight his skills as a legitimate NFL quarterback.
While this has been a positive for Stafford, one of the pieces traded bac ..read more

The Detroit Lions are coming off arguably the greatest season in franchise history.
They were one half away from reaching the Super Bowl for the first time ever, and they figure to be a force to be reckoned with for years to come.
Even so, they need to continue adding pieces and firepower to their improved defense.
With that in mind, they’re going to host Ohio State defensive tackle Michael Hall Jr. for a visit, according to a report by Aaron Wilson of KPRC2.

The Detroit Lions were one of the most surprising teams in the NFL during the 2023 season.
After years of trying to gain a foothold in the NFC North, the team put everything together and won the division for the first time.
They didn’t stop there, making it all the way to the NFC Championship against the San Francisco 49ers.
Making it to the NFC title game was certainly an accomplishment for this team, but that is not their goal in 2024 and beyond.
The Lions are going to do everything possible to reach the Super Bowl this year, as evidenced by their ..read more

The Detroit Lions are coming off the franchise’s most successful season, with the team making it to the NFC Championship Game and falling short of a trip to the Super Bowl, with the San Francisco 49ers pulling off the comeback in the second half.
Although the Lions came incredibly close to making it to the Super Bowl for the first time in the franchise’s history, Detroit had some areas that needed to be addressed during the NFL offseason, mainly on the defensive side of the football.
Even though they have a late first-round pick (No. 29 overall) d ..read more
