Will Patricia Make A Difference Defensively For The Lions?:  https://971theticket.radio.com/articles/will-patricia-make-difference-defensively-lions-opinion

2018 NFL season: One unpopular opinion for each NFC team (DETROIT LIONS: Will be competitive in Matt Patricia's debut season.  My editor, Dan Parr, wants me to say the Lions are going to the playoffs. Not because he wears Honolulu Blue, but to spice things up. Sorry, Dan: I'm sticking with "they'll be competitive" as my final answer. We can't have four teams making the playoffs from the North. People act like Bill Belichick's coaching tree is as barren as his tie drawer. But Eric Mangini, Romeo Crennel, Josh McDaniels and Bill O'Brien all had some level of success in Year 1 in the big chair. They went a combined 33-31 in their debut seasons as a head coach, and three of the four improved their team's record from the previous season. So don't sleep on Patricia this fall. Now, is it particularly bold to say the Lions will be competitive? Well, not if you actually look at the franchise's recent history: Detroit has posted winning records in three of the past four seasons. But it still seems like most people generally think of this organization in a certain way.
