The Detroit Lions did not have a very good 2020 season. In fact, the Lions 2020 campaign was a complete disaster from the get-go.
That being said, the Lions did manage to have a trio of players make the Pro Football Focus Top 101 list for the 2020 season.
Those players are Taylor Decker (No. 72), Matthew Stafford (No. 73), and Frank Ragnow (88)
Here is what PFF had to say about Decker, Stafford, and Ragnow.
72. T TAYLOR DECKER, DETROIT LIONS
One of the most solid pass-blocking left tackles in the game, Taylor Decker was again excellent in that regard in 2020. He allowed just two sacks over almost 700 pass blocking snaps for the Lions this season and posted the second-best PFF run-blocking grade of his career. Decker had three perfect games of pass protection on the season.

73. QB MATTHEW STAFFORD, DETROIT LIONS
In what turned out to be his final season in Detroit, Matthew Stafford nearly backed up his career-best play from last season, but the production was down because the offense was significantly less aggressive. Stafford finished the season with 32 big-time throws and will hope that those throws can unleash something special in Los Angeles next season.

88. C FRANK RAGNOW, DETROIT LIONS
Frank Ragnow has improved each season of his NFL career, and 2020 was his best yet. He earned an overall PFF grade of 80.3 and didn’t allow a sack all season. Overall, he was in pass protection for 609 snaps and surrendered only nine total pressures. Ragnow also had a PFF run-blocking grade above 80. If he takes another step forward again this offseason, 2021 could be special.
