The Detroit Lions are living up to their Super Bowl aspirations, boasting a 7-1 record for the first time since 1956. Coach Dan Campbell believes they can compete with any team, despite missing key defensive players like Aidan Hutchinson.
The Lions' offense is thriving, with Jared Goff achieving historic passing efficiency and Amon-Ra St. Brown setting franchise records. However, the team struggles with quarterback sacks in Hutchinson's absence and is exploring trade options to bolster their defense.
With the NFL trade deadline approaching, Campbell indicated that general manager Brad Holmes is actively seeking improvements, even considering players from practice squads if necessary. The Lions face the Houston Texans next, needing to assess their defensive needs.
