Detroit Lions head coach Matt Patricia (Michael McLoone-USA TODAY Sports)
The Detroit Lions must revamp their linebacker corps this offseason
The Detroit Lions ended the 2020 NFL regular season with the worst defense in the entire league. That’s almost a laughable notion considering this is the same organization that hired a touted defensive genius three years ago in head coach Matt Patricia.
Yet, Patricia wasn’t able to bring that defensive prowess to the Motor City. And he ultimately proved himself to be a paper Lion when it came to the duties of being an NFL head coach, earning himself an early exit from the organization at the end of November.
