Despite some of the predictions, subpar preseason, and the schedule, the Detroit Lions are going to have at least 12 wins this season.
It is no secret that the Lions have had a disappointing preseason with the big loss to the Chargers and loss to the Dolphins. While they did lose, the main starters weren’t playing. While these losses were not acceptable, during these games there was a lot of young talent on display.
I saw some predictions of the Lions having under 10 wins this season. While there are some tough teams on the schedule, the Lions will have all of their players healthy. When you look back on last season they competed or beat good teams even without some key players. The Lions will have both running backs, cornerbacks, safeties, and an edge rusher.
With or without all the starters, the Lions always have the same mentality as Dan Campbell. While there may be some new faces on the team, the grit and aggression of Dan Campbell shows through every game. When you watch any sport, you can always tell which team wants it the most. The Lions are going to be that team this year. They are super hungry coming off a bad loss in the playoffs last season. With a healthy and hungry team, the Lions are going to have 12+ wins this season.
