For The Lions, Times Have Changed.

If I would’ve wrote this article a few years ago, I’d quit writing and pursuing my career after all, I have nailed every Lions season since 2012.

Times have changed in Detroit, the Lions are growing up. In many cases, for once they actually have championship pedigree at the coaching position, they have the depth, they have the talent and simply put; It’s no longer acceptable to miss the playoffs in Detroit.

Just like the Tigers when they rebounded after their long demise of being mediocre, same can be said for the Lions.

The talent is here.

It’s not acceptable to miss the playoffs, it simply isn’t anymore. Unless the Lions seen a catastrophic injury there’s not an excuse.

It’s time for the Lions to become a contender, because the pieces are here.
