The Lions Have One Glaring Weakness That Could Derail Their Super Bowl Dreams

The Lions' linebacker corps stands out as their biggest weakness heading into OTAs, with limited depth behind Jack Campbell after losing Alex Anzalone.

The Lions' linebacker corps stands out as their biggest weakness heading into OTAs, with limited depth behind Jack Campbell after losing Alex Anzalone.

Matt Campbell initially agreed to be the Detroit Lions head coach before changing his mind and staying at Iowa State, leading to the Lions hiring Dan Campbell instead in what turned out to be a franchise-changing sliding doors moment.

Detroit Lions almost hired Iowa State's Matt Campbell as head coach before he changed his mind, leading to Dan Campbell getting the job instead.

Cornerback Terrion Arnold reveals what makes Dan Campbell's Lions training camp different, from intense two-hour practices to veteran leadership that actually teaches teammates.

The Lions lost 11 free agents including DJ Reader to the Giants, but losing coverage linebacker Alex Anzalone and his $8.5 million per year contract hurts most with no obvious replacement ready.

Brad Holmes is aggressively reshaping the Lions roster with big signings like Cade Mays and painful departures including David Montgomery and Taylor Decker in a calculated offseason overhaul.

DJ Reader signs with the Giants leaving the Lions thin at nose tackle with the team banking on Alim McNeill's health and internal development to fill the void.

The Lions are projected to have the NFL's easiest schedule according to Warren Sharp's analysis, potentially giving Detroit the break they need after a brutal injury-plagued season.

Former Lions practice squad edge rusher Cam Gill is dominating the UFL with a league-leading 6.5 sacks and could return to Detroit as familiar depth option.

The Lions could see fewer primetime games after surviving a brutal schedule with just five 1:00 starts, and that break from the spotlight might be exactly what Detroit needs.
