There are heated debates taking place all around the country about who is the best team in the NFL, and now a new argument will emerge following the comments made by iconic play-by-play man Al Michaels. The Thursday Night Football broadcaster gushed over the Detroit Lions before their divisional clash with the Green Bay Packers (9-3), going as far to bestow them with a special title.

“To me, [the Lions] have become the NFL's new must-see TV,” Michaels said, via Awful Announcing. One would assume that an 11-1 team that is led by a fiery head coach and contains a variety of playmakers would be worthy of that honor, but other franchises have a legitimate case to make, too.
