Detroit Lions should be better in the red zone in 2019

Last season, under new head coach Matt Patricia and former offensive coordinator Jim Bob Cooter, the Detroit Lions fielded the 25th scoring offense in the NFL. Averaging just 20.3 points per game, the Lions were far off the pace set by the league’s top offense, the high-powered Kansas City Chiefs, who posted an amazing 35.3 points per contest in 2018.

Not only do the Chiefs have one of the best young quarterbacks in the NFL in Patrick Mahomes, but they also feature arguably the league’s best tight end as well in Travis Kelce.
