They (the Lions) have talent, yes. They also have a new coach and new offensive system. I just think the Bears and Packers have more fire power on offense and enough defense to get them each 10 wins or more. Detroit I can see being 8-8. Just my opinion though. 2 guys on espn picked Detroit the other day.
My Cowboys strength is gonna be their offensive line. If they can control the games, the Cowboys have a chance. Just too many uncertainties and lack of talent on defense to really pick them. They were 5-1 against the rest of the East last year. Romo's health is a huge concern. Plus we play the NFC West this year and have a horrible December schedule - again! @ Philly, @ Chicago, Colts in Dallas, etc. Open the season home vs. San Francisco. I'd rather get them early than late in the season though.
