NFC North Champions
Should the Detroit Lions achieve a remarkable 12 wins in 2023, they would unquestionably lock in the NFC North title. It's essential to highlight that the last time the Lions grasped this divisional crown was in the distant past of 1993, rendering this potential triumph profoundly historic. Nevertheless, conversations with key figures in the Lions organization reveal that clinching the division is merely one facet of their multifaceted goals for the 2023 season.

Bottom Line: Bounce Back and Start Another Streak
The Detroit Lions are making significant strides in the 2023 NFL season, leading the NFC North with a 5-2 record, despite a minor setback from their 38-6 loss to the Ravens. While securing the NFC North title is certainly a coveted achievement, it's evident that the Lions are aiming for more significant milestones in what could shape up to be a truly historic season.
