## Resource

The Detroit Lions are chasing immediate wins after a disappointing 9-8 season, with analysts predicting a strong start thanks to a more favorable schedule. A potential 4-1 kick-off, including home games against the Saints and Bills, could reignite their 2024 form — but early wins may be overlooked if they stumble against tougher foes. With key divisional matchups at home post-bye, a 6-1 start is possible if they replicate their explosive 2024 offense. Yet, their shaky defense looms as a major risk — without stops, they’ll struggle against high-powered offenses. If they seize this window, they could secure playoff positioning like the Knicks did before their NBA Finals run.
