Just about everywhere you look, expectations for the Detroit Lions in 2021 are as low as you can find. Many Vegas outlets have them as the team most likely to be picking first overall in 2022. They aren’t favored in a single game this year. Look at any set of way-too-early power rankings, and the Lions are sure to be in the bottom three. Hell, even Lions fans know to lower expectations in Year 1 of the Dan Campbell era, as well over half of the recently-polled fanbase is expecting six wins or fewer.
