Their offseason acquisitions have definitely placed them ahead of the Vikes and Bears, whom they were about on par with had the lions been injury-free. Its apparent that the lions schedule is being perceived as difficult. Outside of 4 games, I don't really see where all the fuss is coming from. @NO, ATL, GB and @GB are seemingly un-winnable. @TB, KC @Mn @Dal, SF, Chi(MNF) Car, @Den, @Chi, Mn, @Oak and SD(xmas eve) should all be wins, I'll assume they drop 2 in these, getting a 10-6 mark, but missing the playoffs because I believe the NFC South and East will field playoff teams.

A low of 8-8. Outside shot at 10-6. Thing is, they have the core groups returning on both sides of the ball and the special teams are solid if not spectacular. I know this sounds cliche, but if Stafford remains healthy and our running game is made to be respected....the offense will be extremely dangerous and possibly prolific. Defense, 1 that teams definitely have to gameplan for and fear. I look at DVD's I have from last season and look at the push our front 4 got....the number of sacks/pressures/hurries with a below average LB group and secondary....and I look at what we have improved with now ....*on paper*. Then I look at our division and I can't help but think our front 7 D is salivating....Hehehe Hmm….
