Ranking divisions by RBs (5. NFC North (David Montgomery, Tarik Cohen (Bears), Kerryon Johnson, D'Andre Swift (Lions), Aaron Jones, AJ Dillon, Jamaal Williams (Packers), Dalvin Cook, Alexander Mattison (Vikings)): Why, oh why, are the Packers so reluctant to give Aaron Jones a bell-cow role? He's clearly been the best back on the roster for several years, but two different coaches have resisted giving him the full-time job. And the second of those coaches just brought in a third running back to share snaps with him. Sigh. The Lions are similarly reluctant to give their lead role to Kerryon Johnson, but the difference is that Johnson hasn't been nearly as effective as Jones. Swift is also a more dynamic threat than either of the Packers' other backs, though, and a better pass-catcher as well. Dalvin Cook finally stayed healthy last season, and recaptured the superstar talent he showed before tearing his ACL as a rookie. He's a home-run threat as a runner and also a terrific pass-catcher, making him a perfect fit for what modern NFL teams need out of their backs. Mattison looked just fine spelling Cook on limited snaps last season, and while the Vikes would surely prefer Cook's holdout not last all that long, they could feel okay about Mattison, Mike Boone, and Ameer Abdullah as a backup plan. Montgomery was one of the least effective backs in the league last season. He led the nation in broken tackles two years ago, though, and that skill doesn't just disappear. If Chicago can get moderately better blocking so he can make it more than a yard down the field, maybe he'll find more success. The same goes for Cohen, whose average catch traveled approximately negative-37 yards last year. Get him out into open space more often.): https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/ranking-nfl-divisions-by-running-backs-zeke-saquon-and-rising-star-miles-sanders-help-nfc-east-take/
Which fan base is most deserving of a title this season? (Joe Thomas: You would think my answer would be the Cleveland Browns, but ... it's actually the Detroit Lions! The original 0-16 team actually has a longer NFL title drought than Cleveland. The Browns last won it all in 1964, while the Lions' dry spell goes back to '57. Detroit, it's your time!): https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-fan-base-most-deserves-a-super-bowl-title-this-season
