The most-improved NFL teams at every position group in 2024 (Safety: Detroit Lions (+23.0) - Honorable Mentions: Chicago Bears (+22.4), Green Bay Packers (+17.7). The NFC North has experienced a safety renaissance in 2024, with the division possessing five of the top eight safeties in overall grade. Among their divisional rivals, though, the Lions stand out: Brian Branch and Kerby Joseph have been the two best at their position in all of football, with each reaching a 90.6 overall grade or better and tacking on at least an 88.6 coverage grade. Joseph’s improvement from a 56.5 overall grade renders him one of the biggest risers around the league, regardless of position.): https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-most-improved-nfl-teams-at-every-position-group-in-2024
32 NFL observations after Week 10: Trey Hendrickson moves to the top of the pressure chart while Jared Goff thrives using play-action (Detroit Lions - With 1,043 yards coming off play-action, Jared Goff has 152 yards more than any other passer.): https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-32-nfl-observations-after-week-10-trey-hendricks-moves-to-the-top-of-the-pressure-chart-while-jared-goff-thrives-using-play-action
Pro Bowl sleepers: Darnell Mooney, Greg Rousseau among 10 under-the-radar players worthy of honor (Kerby Joseph: You could toss several Lions secondary players on this list, but Joseph's consistent play, coupled with an uncanny Johnny-on-the-spot ability, takes the cake. The safety's six interceptions are tied for the NFL lead, most of which have come in massive spots or changed games. It's not just those moments when Joseph has shined. His -39.1 target EPA is by far the lowest among all safeties (Xavier McKinney is next at -20.8). He's allowed a 20.2 quarterback rating as the nearest defender, the lowest among all DBs, and his 45 percent completion rate allowed is the third-lowest (minimum 200 coverage snaps). The former third-round pick has grown into the glue of Aaron Glenn's secondary and enables the rest of the operation to play physical up front. Sidebar: If you prefer Lions teammate Brian Branch in this spot instead of Joseph, you'd get little argument.): https://www.nfl.com/news/pro-bowl-sleepers-darnell-mooney-greg-rousseau-among-10-under-the-radar-players-worthy-of-honor
NFL Week 11 QB Power Rankings: Burrow angling for No. 1 (5. Jared Goff Detroit Lions QB. How can a guy throw five picks in one game (!) and still be considered a top-five passer? Just look at the way Goff finished against the Houston Texans. On the rare times he's not sharp for Detroit, he's been very composed and resilient. It's a far cry from his time with the Los Angeles Rams.): https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/2024-nfl-week-11-qb-power-rankings-bengals-joe-burrow-chasing-ravens-lamar-jackson-up-top/

2024 NFL Defense Rankings: Insights on the Eagles’ Rise and the Ravens’ Woes (6. Detroit Lions: The Detroit Lions leaned heavily on their defense in Week 10 to get a result, but it was only noticeable because of the offense’s struggles. The defense has been impressive for a good run of games now, posting a positive EPA per play and a Defense+ inside the top 12 in four of their last five games. For the majority of the season, this unit has been a great complement to their offense. The Lions’ numbers are quite impressive overall. They lead the league in third-down conversion rate while ranking inside the top five in several other statistics, including red-zone conversion rate. Their biggest weakness has been a 23rd-ranked sack rate, which is a big reason why they made a move for Za’Darius Smith after losing Aiden Hutchinson.): https://www.profootballnetwork.com/nfl-defense-rankings/
2024 NFL Offense Rankings: Insights on Historic Ravens, the Upward-Trending Cardinals, and More Heading Into Week 11 (4. Detroit Lions - Grade: B+. The favorites to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl have appeared unstoppable for the majority of the season, and it’s only getting better with time. Behind David Montgomery and Jahmyr Gibbs, this is the second-best rush offense in terms of EPA, something that was expected to some degree entering 2024. Jared Goff, despite the five-interception game on Sunday night, is having the best statistical year of his career, benefiting from the potent ground game. Amon-Ra St. Brown is on the short list for best receivers in the game, and that elevates the floor of this offense. If Sam LaPorta can regain his 2023 form or Jameson Williams can develop, this offense has the potential to improve this ranking even further over the next month.): https://www.profootballnetwork.com/nfl-offense-rankings-week-11-2024/
