Lions’ offense is lacking a crucial element ahead of key Cowboys game

Last year’s Detroit Lions offense was one of the greatest the NFL has ever seen. The team scored 564 points, good enough for the fourth most in NFL history. Detroit’s average of 33.2 points per game is the 13th highest of all time and the best mark of the 2020s so far.

But this year, the Lions’ offense has been marred with inconsistency. While the Lions still rank third in the NFL in yards per game and are fourth in points, they’ve put up some duds against teams like the Green Bay Packers, Kansas City Chiefs, Philadelphia Eagles and even had some shaky performances in their wins, like over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and New York Giants.
