Final Score Prediction
Prior to the start of the 2023 season, I predicted the Detroit Lions would win the NFC North with an 11-6 record (I was off by 1) and advance all the way to the NFC Championship Game and that is exactly where things currently stand.
The question is, is the Lions’ magical season about to come to an end, or will they beat the No. 1 seed San Franciso 49ers to advance their first Super Bowl in franchise history?
Folks, I may be drinking the Kool-Aid, but I believe in my heart that the Lions are on a mission and that they will find a way to beat the 49ers on Sunday.
I will get more into the “Why” I believe the Lions have a GREAT shot to beat the 49ers, but for now, let’s just go with what I think the final score will be.
