Despite having never been to the playoffs since 2016, the Lions are favorites to win the NFC North Division. With the last playoff game for the side coming way back in 1991, fans have high hopes for their side. However, there are certain external factors that make Lions a hot stake this year. Aaron Rodgers moving to the Jets from the Packers meant the Lions got their first postseason game at Ford Field.
With nearly all the factors pitted in Detroit Lions’ favor, the players are being cautious. Jared Goff, the team?s quarterback, offered a practical perspective amidst the hype. ?Of course, we’ve got good players, we’ve got good coaches, we’ve got a good team. But we haven’t done anything… We’ve got some work to do to put a stamp on who we want to be and we’re nowhere near that yet.? Goff is focusing on putting in the work and getting results rather than just moving with the hype.
