By Mike Payton
The Lions had their fair share of remarkable quarterbacks set up across from them in 2014. From Aaron Rodgers to Cam Newton to Tony Romo. 2015 will be no different in that regard.
What will be different in 2015, is that the Lions will face a young group of quarterbacks with only a small handful being over the age of 30. The Lions could potentially take advantage of this situation. It could also wind up being break out seasons for these young guys.
