Detroit Lions have top-10 odds to win Super Bowl LVIII
The 2022 NFL season is now in the books, and the Detroit Lions are pulling down fairly good odds to win Super Bowl LVIII.
With Super Bowl LVII done, the 2022 NFL season is also in the books. The Detroit Lions are going all the way into the offseason off the high of a 9-8 season, and in good position to take another step in 2023.
In mid-January, ESPN’s Louis Riddick went all in to put the Lions in the conversation as a Super Bowl contender next season.
"I’m going to say this now. I believe this team is a Super Bowl contender in 2023. I think what Dan Campbell is doing is just absolutely phenomenal, in terms of culture setting,” Riddick said. “I think young offensive coordinator Ben Johnson, what he did with Jared Goff this season — when Jared Goff had basically been thrown on the trash heap."
