Through my near 38 years on this Earth, I’ve seen a lot of rebuilds. Not just with the Detroit Lions, but with NFL teams as whole. A lot of them have no worked out for various reasons. If I had to do a study, I’m sure that I would find that the largest reasons the rebuild didn’t work is because the team couldn’t find a quarterback.
That’s it. That’s what these rebuilds tend to boil down to. It’s the biggest answer to the biggest question. The Lions rebuild has been a rousing success so far. This team is ready to compete right now, and they’re ready to compete in the future.
