What a job. The guy has played parts of 22 games the last 4 years and made $31.5 million.

One of the football shows recently voted on the best division in football. All four of the panelists said the AFC North. Unanimous. Really? The Ravens, Browns, Bengals and Steelers are better than the Vikings, Lions, Packers and Bears? Oh my. Does being a sports talk panelist require a lobotomy?
We'll definitely learn more after the next two weeks when the Lions take on the Browns and Bengals, the Packers face the Bengals and the Vikings play the Steelers and Browns.

I dont know (yet) if GB is a SB contender?
Lions are for sure. I'd love to see a Lion/Eagle NFCCG in Detroit.
Chicago isnt for sure and MN?
No, MN is not a SB contender in 25 - unless things turn around drastically offensively.
But yah, nods to NFC North over AFC North heading into season.

Detroit's offensive line was bad against the Packers in game one but now appear to be every bit as good as last year. Eagles and Lions O-lines are better than the Vikings have had for quite awhile. Hopefully the Vikings O-line will also get there if they can ever get healthy enough to play together.
Pressuring Goff is going to be difficult. Hopefully Flores can find a way.
Another thing I noticed was the Lions on defense played a lot of players in the box and focused on stopping the run.
Raven's were missing two guys on the D line, but yeah, that was a dominant performance by the Lions.

Henry has the look of being done. 3 fumbles in 3 games? That fumble against Buffalo has messed with his head. He is not the same back.

Honestly, I don't think we can say much of anything about any of those teams right now. Too many moving and missing parts. How does Green Bay dominate the Lions and lose to the Browns? How does Atlanta dominate us and get blown out by the Panthers? How do the Cowboys nearly beat the Eagles and then get blown out by Chicago?
I've always believed it's mostly about which team gets hot and healthy during the playoff run. And that could just as likely be the Vikings as anyone else.

I didnt see Lions winning
FWIW Ravens were missing 3 starters on defense and it showed

Thing with the Lions, Campbell runs his guys into the ground...and people wonder why their injuries pile up.
It's a long season
