Many Detroit Lions fans still have a bitter taste in their mouths after last season's shocking playoff exit to the Washington Commanders in the NFC Divisional Round. Lions fans left Ford Field in shock and disappointment as the Commanders' 45-31 win spoiled arguably Detroit's best shot at a Super Bowl in franchise history.
With last season now behind them and all eyes on how the Lions will bounce back and fit in the NFC this year, head coach Dan Campbell is making some big promises. The Lions have seen great success the last two seasons, including back-to-back division titles, a 15-2 record in 2024, and an appearance in the NFC Championship.
