NFL teams around the league are finalizing their coaching staff’s as the 2022 NFL offseason quickly approaches.

The Detroit Lions immediately made a move within their coaching staff following the conclusion of another losing season, as they announced that offensive coordinator Anthony Lynn had been fired.

The Detroit Lions had a forgettable 2021 campaign that looks likely to end as the NFL’s second worst team record-wide.

While this year was always going to be a lost season, the Detroit Lions have certainly made the most of it at certain moments, and their high-scoring loss at the hands of the Seattle Seahawks certainly fits that bill.

The Detroit Lions were linked with a multitude of players for their No. 7 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, including former Florida Gators tight end Kyle Pitts. Even after T.J.

These things are not supposed to happen in the NFL – but don’t tell the Arizona Cardinals and Detroit Lions that.

The supposedly-listless Lions […]

The Detroit Lions pulled off yet another upset victory in their campaign as they shocked the Arizona Cardinals in Week 15 with a 30-12 home win.
