Forgive us if this sounds like déjà vu, but our friends at Football Outsiders have once again provided a beacon of hope for Detroit Lions fans.
Aaron Schatz, the head of Football Outsiders, penned an article over at ESPN ranking the eight teams that finished in last place in their division by their likelihood of going worst-to-first in 2020. The Lions placed No. 1 on his list, but that’s just the tip of this Honolulu Blue iceberg.
According to Football Outsiders’ prediction model, the Lions have a 27.5 percent chance of winning the NFC North this year—the highest percentage of any other team in the NFC North.
