1) The Lions have the best offense in the league. Detroit’s 31-29 win over Minnesota was by far the best game of the weekend. It also showed us that the Lions are good enough to win a Super Bowl, even with the departure of defensive star Aidan Hutchinson, who has a chance to return if Detroit represents the NFC in this game. The reason for this? An offense that becomes more exciting every week. The Lions scored a combined 89 points in their previous two games, but Sunday’s performance was next level. They faced a Minnesota defense that had frustrated teams all year, and Detroit still found a way to score more than 30 points (only one other opponent, Green Bay, had reached 20 points against the Vikings). Mark exceeded). Jared Goff continued his hot play, completing 22 of 25 passes for 280 yards and two touchdowns. Jahmyr Gibbs ran for 116 yards while Amon-Ra St. Brown produced eight receptions for 125 yards and a touchdown. Yes, the Lions started slow but eventually scored touchdowns on four straight drives. If you followed the defense that Brian Flores coordinated in Minnesota, you know how crazy that sounds. The Lions now have a share of first place in the NFC North and, more importantly, a lead in the tiebreaker scenario when it comes to playoff seeding. We knew the offense was deep as it also included running back David Montgomery, wide receiver Jameson Williams, tight end Sam LaPorta and an exceptional offensive line. Now we better understand how dominant it can be.
