The Detroit Lions put on a show in their dominant win, with Jared Goff, Amon-Ra St. Brown, and the rest of the offense firing on all cylinders. But while fans are buzzing about the team being “back,” not everyone is ready to crown Detroit’s offense just yet.
On ESPN, one analyst pushed pause on the hype, pointing out that a single strong performance doesn’t erase early inconsistencies. The Lions’ offensive line held up, the run game clicked, and the passing attack looked dangerous, but the analyst noted that true greatness is measured by consistency over multiple weeks, not just one blowout victory.
The Lions have the talent to be one of the NFL’s top units, and Sunday’s win certainly put the league on notice. Still, the challenge now is proving they can sustain that level of play against tougher defenses on the road. For Detroit, Week 3 will be the real test of whether the offense is truly back to its best form.
