Since the start of the 2022 season, the Detroit Lions have improved their record each year. Dan Campbell’s first season as head coach was 2022 and the team went 9-8. They just narrowly missed the playoffs. In 2023, Detroit went 12-5 and won the NFC North for the first time in 30 years.
Through 15 games in 2024, the Lions are 13-2. That is a franchise record for most wins in a season and they still have two games left to play. Detroit sets itself apart from the rest of the NFL with its unique play-calling. That is all done by third-year offensive coordinator Ben Johnson. The 38-year-old stayed with the Lions after a ton of interest in him taking another job. ESPN’s Courtney Cronin reported that Johnson is expected to interview for Chicago’s head coaching vacancy. She noted that Johnson is only going to interview for jobs he intends to take.
