Sunday’s victory over the Green Bay Packers in the books marks the end of this chapter of Detroit Lions football. The question is, is it the first chapter in a storybook ending?
No one save the diehard fans were predicting the Lions to amount to much this season, and based on their record, that seems to be the case. A mere three wins leaves Detroit in the basement of the NFL, with just the 3-14 Jacksonville Jaguars to keep them company. A record of 3-13-1, thanks to a tie versus the Steelers, is a step down from 2020’s marred campaign under Matt Patricia and Darrell Bevell.
