The Lions defense was a top 10 defense in the league over the final ten games. If they had forced one punt early in the year against the Seahawks, the Lions would’ve been in the playoffs last season.

I am really excited to see how the defense does this year now that they have something approaching an actual secondary.

I wasn't impressed by the Vikings draft nor with their free agency moves. They lost more than they added (Dean Lowry lmao) IMO, and they already looked vulnerable before that. I think they're still the Vegas betting favorites to take the division but this whole thing feels totally up in the air for anyone to grab it.

I think the Vikings still have a top 3 WR, fringe top 10 QB, fringe top 5 TE on the team, but I forget things sometimes.

Shaun Hill was really good. Our 3rd string one year was Drew Stanton who i vaguely recall them beating Green Bay (maybe their super bowl year?) by 7-3.

Packers first unofficial depth chart of 2023 going into the Cincinnati joint practice:  Couple things of note: Carrington Valentine gets first dibs on backup corner. Gaines appears to have been moved to corner from safety. Savage is still the starter at safety but given his play in camp so far I think that's at high risk. And, finally, Myers at C and Tom at RT. Guess they're not confident in Bakhtiari's ability to stay available so they'd prefer to have both Nijman/Tom at tackle to be able to rotate if needed.
