The new-age Lions have established themselves as a team built on grit and toughness, with a reputation for coming after their opponents with sharpened teeth. Despite this tough image, they are still primarily a dome team. However, their schedule plays to their strengths, with 14 out of their first 15 games being played indoors. This gives them an advantage as they strive to repeat their success from last year and make it to the Super Bowl again.
The Lions will only play one game outdoors, in Green Bay during Week 9, before heading to Chicago and San Francisco later in the season. Facing a number of playoff teams from the previous season, including the Rams, Bucs, and Cowboys, the Lions have an opportunity to solidify their position as division leaders and potentially secure home-field advantage for the playoffs.
In addition to playing most of their games indoors, the fact that the Super Bowl will be played in the Superdome further benefits the Lions. This means they could play all their postseason games indoors as well. With quarterback Jared Goff showing improvement since joining the Lions and a road schedule that keeps them away from inclement weather conditions, it seems that circumstances are in favor of this team making a strong comeback in 2024.
