Writer says Detroit Lions will win Super Bowl LV

3-12-1.

I have typed that WAY too many times since the Detroit Lions concluded their 2019 season.

There is no doubt about it that everyone from the players to the coaches to the fans would rather just move on to the 2020 season as soon as possible and never look back.

That being said, will 2020 be any better? It has to be, right?

Well, one Michigan based writer from the Battle Creek Enquirer has already made quite the prediction for the Lions in 2020…or should I say, 2021.

That’s right, Bill Broderick says the Detroit Lions are going to win Super Bowl LV, which will take place on Feb. 7, 2021, in Tampa, FL.

According to Broderick, who seems to be joking around a bit (or a lot), says the Lions will win the next Super Bowl because they will follow the path of the San Francisco 49ers, who he believes will win it this year.

From Battle Creek Enquirer:

Last season, San Francisco finished 4-12, basically because it lost its quarterback to injury, lost a lot of games late despite a rising young defense and a strong running game and went into the draft with a high pick.

Sound familiar?

Detroit opened the season at 2-0-1, soon after lost QB Matthew Stafford to injury for the rest of the season and finished 3-12-1. Despite using third- and fourth-string quarterbacks, the Lions were in every game, led most of them, using a solid defense and a strong running game.

The destiny-is-ours-type thinking continues …

Last offseason, the 49ers coaching staff worked the Senior Bowl and used the first-hand knowledge to have a franchise-improving draft. Well, as fate would have it, the Lions coaching staff was at the recent Senior Bowl. Surely, some of that insight gained from a week of practices will help Detroit’s upcoming draft selection.

Even though the franchises are at different ends of the country and different ends of the professional sports spectrum (five Super Bowl trophies to none), it could happen that way, right? Dreams do come true, sometimes.

It can’t be the same for us every year, right? We won’t always be Bill Murray, spending every day after another Super Bowl with our Lions still without a trophy.

Nation, do you agree?
