The Detroit Lions are back from their bye week, and it’s a mixture of good news, bad news for the team as they return to play. Good news: The NFC North looks pretty bad, despite the Minnesota Vikings being one of four teams in the NFL with one or zero losses. The Green Bay Packers are a mess and the Chicago Bears are as advertised. Even the Vikings seem to be riding a bit of a lucky streak, barely edging out wins week after week.
More good news: Those of you who aren’t even thinking about divisional standings and have already started to prepare for the 2023 NFL Draft, Detroit’s draft position improved over the weekend, too.
