Detroit Lions vs. Los Angeles Rams Week 1 On Paper preview, prediction

The NFL season is finally upon us, and that means another year of our On Paper previews.

For the uninitiated, I’m going to try and keep it simple. These previews are meant to be as objective as possible by looking at the statistical output from each team. I will look at all four individual matchups (Lions pass offense vs. Opponents pass defense, etc.) and provide an edge in each on a 1-5 scale. At the end, we’ll add up the edges and produce who I think the winner will be.

For each matchup, there are two charts: one for the Lions, one for the opponent.
