On Tuesday, Tony Dungy said the Detroit Lions made a mistake firing Jim Caldwell. But one of his partners on NBC thinks the Lions are very much headed in the right direction.
Sunday Night Football color commentator Cris Collinsworth told the Detroit media this week that he thinks the Lions are Super Bowl bound in the near future. “I just think the Lions at some point are going to make it happen,” Collinsworth said, according to the Detroit Free Press. “They have too much talent there to not.”
Though the Lions haven’t made it anywhere close to the Super Bowl since 1991—the only time in their history they’ve reached the NFC championship—Detroit has had one of the better teams over the past four years.
