With a 7-9 last season, the Lions are anticipating to put together a little more balance in their offense, put pressure on the quarterback and try for Paris Lenon and Jordan Dizon to communicate better.
We do not see the Lions leading in the North this season(even with Jon Kitna and Roy Williams backing up), as they just don’t have the tools needed to be a great team in this league, not to mention there is no way this team can compete with the Vikings and Packers, let alone the Bears.
Look for the Lions to play like they did at the end of last season all year, 6 wins if pushing it.
