'Hard Knocks' Episode 5 recap: Lions will be 'team that can and will':  https://www.nfl.com/news/hard-knocks-episode-5-recap-lions-will-be-team-that-can-and-will

One position matchup to watch for every Week 1 NFL game (PHILADELPHIA EAGLES @ DETROIT LIONS - DI Jordan Davis vs. C Frank Ragnow:  Jordan Davis is one of the most interesting players to watch any time he is playing. He is a singularly unique athlete who can overwhelm even elite athletes with his sheer size and power. What will determine how good he will be is consistency. Frank Ragnow, one of the best centers in the game, will test him in his NFL debut. Ragnow hasn’t allowed a sack over his last 758 pass-blocking snaps and has improved upon his PFF run-blocking grade each year of his career.):  https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-one-position-matchup-to-watch-every-week-1-game

NFL rookie rankings Week 1: Three Jets make the list (1.  Aidan Hutchinson DETROIT LIONS DE:  Hutchinson is more prepared to make an early impact than other edge rushers in this class. He is relentless as a player and should be respected opposite a healthy Romeo Okwara. Kayvon Thibodeaux is absent from this list because there is a chance he does not play in Week 1. If he does play and plays well, then he will have a spot on the entirely renovated Week 2 rankings.):  https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/nfl-rookie-power-rankings-entering-week-1-sauce-gardner-leads-three-jets-on-list-five-receivers-make-the-cut/

Ranking every NFL Week 1 matchup (14. Eagles at Lions: There's lofty expectations in Philadelphia for an Eagles team that is coming off of a surprising playoff berth. The Eagles face a nice challenge in Week 1, as Dan Campbell's team is looking to move up the proverbial food chain after adding several new pieces to the roster (including first-round pick Aidan Hutchinson) this offseason.):  https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/ranking-every-nfl-week-1-matchup-cowboys-buccaneers-tops-list-as-tom-brady-out-to-prove-critics-wrong-again/

Ranking NFL's 10 most accurate quarterbacks, and where they excel (No. 9: Jared Goff - Jared Goff has limitations to his game, as evidenced by the 6.3 air yards per pass attempt. Goff attempted 25.2% of passes beyond 10 yards, the lowest rate in the league. The former No. 1 overall pick is not going to be an elite difference-maker, and the team will need to continue to game plan around him.   When kept clean by the Lions for at least 2.5 seconds, Goff ranked 16th in EPA per dropback — that's certainly good enough to keep the Lions competitive if they can protect him.   When Goff tried to pass from 11 against light boxes, he was terrible. But if defenders were trying to stop the run with a heavier box, he was exceptional.):  https://www.foxsports.com/stories/nfl/ranking-the-nfls-10-most-accurate-quarterbacks-and-where-they-excel

2022 NFL Season Predictions: Josh Allen Wins MVP, And Aidan Hutchinson Brings Home Defensive ROY Honors (Defensive Rookie Of The Year: Aidan Hutchinson - Aidan Hutchinson winning the award is chalk. He’s in a good position on a strong defensive line, and his game was about as pro-ready as they come. It would take a massive season from one of the defensive backs to win the award, no linebackers seem primed for it, and Kayvon Thibodeaux will miss a few games early on with a knee injury.):  https://www.profootballnetwork.com/2022-nfl-season-predictions/
