Is a dynasty in store for the Detroit Lions?

Not since the days of Bobby Sanders has the team been this strong enough to win the NFC North, let alone contend for a Super Bowl berth. But head coach Dan Campbell and General Manager Brad Holmes have accomplished that task in just three seasons.

And it starts with an offense that boasts Jared Goff, David Montgomery, Jahmyr Gibbs, Amon-Ra St. Brown and Sam LaPorta, enabled by an offensive line that boasts Pro Bowlers Penei Sewell and Frank Ragnow.

Defensively, Aidan Hutchinson has emerged as the future star of the line, facilitating the exploits of linebackers Jack Campbell and Alex Anzalone. And the secondary is no longer a weakness for the Lions, with former Tampa Bay Buccaneer Carlton Davis and rookie Terrion Arnold joining versatile sophomore Brian Branch.
