Lions, Jags and QB plot twists: Cold takes of 2022 NFL season (Detroit and Duval aren't who we thought they were - Preseason prediction: The "Hard Knocks"-starring Detroit Lions, who are still in the midst of a rebuild, will be able to deem their season a success if they can improve upon their previous record of 3-13-1 even slightly. Seven wins? Resounding success.  How it's going: Some might venture to say the roar has been restored in Detroit. QB Jared Goff revived his career with a 62.5 QBR (fifth in the league) and the Lions bounced back after a 1-6 start by winning eight of their last 10 games. While the Lions didn't make the postseason, the fact Dan Campbell & Co. were even in contention for a wild-card spot, and finished the season with a winning (9-8) record while thwarting the Green Bay Packers' attempt to reach the postseason is quite the turnaround.):  https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/35433518/nfl-2022-regular-season-cold-takes-predictions

NFL rookie rankings: 49ers' Brock Purdy vaults into top 25 after thrilling finish to 2022 regular season (2.  Aidan Hutchinson:  Hutchinson really came on in the second half of the season, finishing with 9.5 sacks (the most among rookies). As a pass rusher, he demonstrated multiple ways to get to the quarterback. He brought a lot of energy to a resurgent Lions team.  20.  Kerby Joseph:  Joseph had a lot of ball production in college and it translated to the NFL, culminating in a Week 18 interception against the Packers that put Green Bay's playoff hopes on ice.  21.  James Houston:  No one has been more efficient than Houston when it comes to rushing the passer. He led the league with a sack percentage of 9.2, per Next Gen Stats (min. 75 pass rush snaps). I'm excited to see what he can do next season with a full amount of reps.  25.  Malcolm Rodriguez:  Another jewel from the Lions' draft class, Rodriguez impressed with his instincts, speed and range. With four Detroit representatives, this list is a great example of why the Lions' future is so bright.):  https://www.nfl.com/news/nfl-rookie-rankings-49ers-brock-purdy-vaults-into-top-25-after-thrilling-finish-
