Analysis

QB Jared Goff is nothing special, but he already proved in Los Angeles that he wins with top coaching and the right players around him. The Lions have a nicely developing core of talent on both sides of the ball. If Goff don’t Goof, Detroit can enjoy a competitive season, though another year and a little luck is required for it to ripen into a true contender.

Prediction: 3rd in division. A respectable core of developing players, but Goff is still at the wheel without former co-pilot Sean McVay.
