@@lazerchicken404 you got it!! May the best team win. Lions had us allll nervous. If my 49ers would have lost that NFC championship, I would have wanted the Lions to win the Super Bowl.
The DallAss game is going to be crazy. I would not be surprised if MCDC has an eligible OL on every play in the red zone. He won't forget that call & he won't let the team forget, either. This will be a Lions victory. And it won't be close.

1000 percent, we will have somthing special lined up for them. I don’t get why every time we play the Cowboys it’s at their place. The last 3 times at least it’s been at Jerry World.
@@thomaswatkins3686pulling a fast one and getting caught? Before the game Coaches meet with the refs and let them know of any trick plays they intend to run. Cambell said he even wrote the play out for them on the white board. It was clearly the refs fault.
Without looking ill guess their stats were similar but the difference between the 2 is one is facing constant double teams the other is being single blocked on every play. This is the part of football that people miss when they stat chase. How many defenders on your defense is the other team game planning against? Before we had Hutchinson & McNeil now you add Reader who must be doubled.
@@florida1289 Hutch was also being doubled all year (led the league in most double teams per game). The lions now have 2 of their front 4 guys that are double team worthy. One of those 2 are going to have to be blocked by one man, so it's definitely an upgrade
Was going to comment the same thing. Maybe they are factoring in injury but Reader is a MASSIVE upgrade in terms of talent over Jones (who I did like having on the team, but he's a replacement level player ultimately). That feels like more of an upgrade compared to Zeitler over Jackson (which is also an upgrade, but still).
I had to pause the video and come find this comment. Reader was top 10 in run stop. Benito was a backup that was serviceable when he was in the game. Not bad, but definitely not Reader skill.
@@ItSaBeastNerd that's them in a nutshell though when you think about.. arrogant clowns who open their mouths and write checks that they really have no business even touching the paper of let alone cash! 😂 However in reality they're not even as close as the statements that they make.. they're always a peg or two behind.. it's funny to me though
Dan Campbell is probably my favorite coach ever. He’s so fun and the risky plays even though sometimes they don’t work out are more fun to watch. One Pride.
You missed the addition of UFL kicker Jake Bates. He kicked 3 60+ FGs in 10 games, including a UFL record 64 yarder. He even kicked a 70 yarder in practice. Plus he’s used to playing in Detroit, coming from the Michigan Panthers.
So what happened last year in Baltimore? In San Francisco? Lions have to play a good team at their field and they come apart like a cheap russian ssuit
Looks like they reuploaded the video after fixing Sam Laporta's name. For those that did not see the original video, his name on screen at the 2:16 mark was Matt Laporta. Good on the NFL to go back and fix a mistake. Now if they could only do so with some of their on field calls...
I was going to post. How is DJ Reader not an upgrade over Benito Jones? It's a huge upgrade at that. That interior D-line is looking much improved with Levi Onwuzurike now healthy too.
@@spry_guy definitely. Not to mention the Lions were already good at stopping the run last year. I think that extra push up the middle this year will really help Hutchinson get to the quarterback.
Reportedly Levi has been breaking out in training camp too, so expecting a big season from him. Id also love to see Daurice Fountain play some snaps as from what I’d heard he was convinced by teammates to keep pursuing football after wanting to quit. Its crazy how apparently he’s been breaking out at 28 when he’s been going from practice squad to practice squad. I really wanna see some game success from him
Watching this halfway through the season when they're 8-1 and getting called the best team in the league, wouldn't have called this ceiling. Hope they make it to the big game, and spoil the Chiefs 3-peat.
GO LIONS 🦁 I personally see them as the #1 seed in the NFC and winning the Super Bowl if the Chiefs don’t. Also, I see them getting 13-15 wins at max or even more assuming they beat everyone
@@Love2Musgrave ok “lil bro” you are a packers fan I’m not gonna dream about it because they are not my favorite team I said they MIGHT go to the superbowl based on their performance last year “lil bro”
Here's the thing....Even with this relatively hard schedule I don't have a single fear nor care who we play because this is not the same ol lions anymore! We are the brand new lions and the revamped secondary was our Achilles heel last year and well I think we addressed it!! Lmao Jamo will finally break out making that dangerous offense even more deadly which I didn't think was possible! Lol
I feel the Lions have a good mix of Vets and young guys and the Coach truly wants to win.. so does the QB.. I see them as a contender in NFC .. Like at least 10 wins
DJ reader is going to be the biggest difference on this defense. It'll be most noticeable, especially stat wise, with the linebackers. Anzalone has always had amazing instincts and he passed that to Barnes. Campbell will get to play his natural Mike position and use his coverage skills. Reader will be opening lanes for lots of TFLs
Over 13 really wouldn’t shock me This defense rebuilds a bit more and ranks at a more league average area and this is a NFC Chiefs for the foreseeable future
Don’t tell me that getting DJ Reader is a Push and not an Upgrade over Benito Jones. Also at the edge/sam lb position we got rid of Harris and the Okwara bros, got Houston back from injury, signed Davenport and added Wingho in the draft. Paschal dropped down to 250lbs and it’s his first off season fully healthy looking to take a jump along with Levi O who is finally healthy and is back up to a strong 300lbs. Jack Cambell, Barnes, Jamo, Kerby, Iffy, Gibbs, Laporta, Branch, Hutch, Alim, Sewell are all players that should take another Jump forward this year. Lions Cheifs SuperBowl and Lions win it.
My only concern is probably the edge rushers opposite of Aidan Hutchinson. Can Paschal, Davenport, and Houston stay healthy? Mathieu Betts not guarantee to make the roster… we’ll see.. maybe adding Reader in the middle will help
nah their ceiling is 15 wins, I'd be surprised if they let the Cowboys win after what happened this year and they could definitely sweep the Bears and Packers
I will never forget last season. Waited 30 years for this lol
Goff trying to leap into the stands was so wholesome.
He psyched himself out 😂
and Bridgewater teased him about it xD the whole thing was cute
He does have a sugar in his shoes
Hey, Jamo only got up there because that chick dragged him up haha
@@thekillers1stfan That was Jah :p

Looks like a push. If you look real quickly, with poor vision a 3 looks like an 8. 87.4 is what they must've thought for Benito 😂

How can you say Reader is not an upgrade over Bento Jones?
Insanely bad take. Thats like saying Mahomes and Mac Jones are equal.
Reader instead of Benito jones is more of an upgrade than any of the corners transitions
Lions sweeping the whole division who wanna bet
wait what? How do you put D.J. Reeder as a "push" for Benito Jones? You can't get more of an all caps upgrade than that.
Watching this halfway through the season when they're 8-1 and getting called the best team in the league, wouldn't have called this ceiling. Hope they make it to the big game, and spoil the Chiefs 3-peat.

And a possible upgrade a kicker too adding the stud from the Michigan Panthers to a 2 year deal. Man that kid has a leg
Well if the ceiling was 13-4, the Lions reached the stratosphere. Time to translate that into the playoffs!
This new defense is going to be beast Kerry definitely going to shine even more with all the pressure and new cbs
9-1 might smash that ceiling 😵💫
12-1
This aged sooooo well. I gues were not supposed to beat the Cowboys Texans or Colts.
As i post this, Lions are 12-1 this season...so far. Been a good year!
Great video. I’m expecting the Lions to step it up in the defense. I love it when people understand estimate the Lions.
I have the Lions with a 11 to 12 win season. I have not been wrong since the 90s.
They replaced Matt with this twin brother Sam!!!

Let's go Lions 🦁 🏈 💯
Go LIONS!!! 🎉
The Lions floor is 12-5 and ceiling is 14-3 and we are getting that first seed and beating the Cheifs in the Super Bowl.
David Montgomery is the most underrated lions player because Gibbs is so dynamic
Crazy, Run D was ranked #2/3 and Pass D was #31!! I think Chef Holmes may have noticed 🤣
Going 13-4 for their ceiling.
Splitting season series with Green Bay and Chicago
Losing to Houston and San Francisco.
Their floor is 11-6
Spot on, very informative! This is by far is the most unbiased and educated projections..
Saying DJ Reader is a push with Benito Jones is hilarious
here to remind everyone that a baker's dozen is 13, not 12
This team is LEGIT
Just here to remind the NFL that Decker reported.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍...couldn't like more than once but...👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 lol
Came along way since the Joey Harrington days
BTW, a “baker’s dozen” is 13.
Such a great analysis
Lions are officially the team to beat in the NFC
How is 13 the ceiling?! The lions might challenge SF for the best roster in the league.
Lions at least winning 13 games
aged beautifully
We are not losing to the cowboys after last years incident. Chip on the shoulder game
I can’t put into words how excited I am about our new cornerbacks.
Calling DJ reader a push compared to Benito is insane
It is week 15 in the 2024 season the lions are 12-1! Will have to go on a 4 game skid to finish 12-5, don’t see that happening
Lions are going to massacre the cowgirls. Don’t think they have forgotten what them cowgirls did to them.
Lions football is the best in the league
Also, a bakers dozen is 13...
My Lions going to the Super Bowl 😍
Jamo scored more than 2 TDs!
They were talking about REC TDs. Yes, he had 3 TDs if you're including rushing.
TD against Bucs, Bears, Saints, and two against 49ers
Update: Lions kicker received a season ending injury a few days ago. Lions have signed and seem committed to kicker Bates.
I feel the Lions have a good mix of Vets and young guys and the Coach truly wants to win.. so does the QB.. I see them as a contender in NFC .. Like at least 10 wins
10?? 13 ..
insane we destroyed the ceiling 15-2 omg
You’re nuts if you don’t think we’re beating the cowboys or niners.
Vegas has missed low on the Lions 3 years running. Lions over is a great bet.

Lions are one of the few teams that can actually beat the 49ers and stop them getting the 1 seed.
They are vital to the Eagles 1 seed chances.
0:46 he’s got the biggest bAaAlls
No shot we don’t beat the brakes off Dallas after last years screw job.
8 ints in 2 games against my bears and we choked one game shouldve been 2-0 against them last year! Now we got 3x the team
