The Detroit Lions went from being America's Loveable Losers to being a single game away from the Super Bowl in only a few short years. After going 3-13-1 in 2021, 2022 saw the Lions go 9-8 and just missing the playoffs. The last two seasons prepared the Lions to win their first-ever NFC North title last season.

While this season is only just starting, a Supercomputer has crunched the numbers and boldly predicted the Lion's 2024 campaign. It looks like the Lion's Grit will come in clutch once more this season.

Lions in the Super Bowl?

The Supercomputer had good things to say about the Lions, but not as good as we want them to be. The computer predicted the Lions would have another stellar season, winning the NFC North for a second straight year with a record of 11-6.

However, if this computer is to be believed, that's as far as our accolades will go. The computer predicts that the Dallas Cowboys will finally have the year Jerry Jones has been hoping for since 1996; 2024 Super Bowl Champs, beating the Miami Dolphins. Sadly, this victory comes at the expense of the Lions, who aren't expected to make it to the NFC Championship.

Considering that Dak Prescott and the Cowboys just signed a $240 million contract, there is more pressure on them to win it all than ever. But the predictions of this computer should be taken with a grain of salt, no one ever knows what a season can hold.

Just look at the Dolphins, who are in the Super Bowl according to this supercomputer, but whose season could be in turmoil after their star quarterback has received yet another concussion.

 

I'm choosing to believe the computer is wrong and the Lions are going all the way. You can view the entire breakdown of the Supercomputer's predictions here.
