Detroit Lions Schedule 2023: Dates, Times, Revealed For Thursday Night Football, Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve Games – Way Too Early Odds Every Game
The Detroit Lions schedule for 2023 has been revealed – and it isn’t taking long for fans to react! Following an 8-2 finish to the 2022 season, Lions fans can’t wait to see their team get back to the gridiron.
When the news broke Thursday morning that the Lions would open the season vs. the defending champion Kansas City Chiefs in the NFL kickoff primetime spot to open the season, Detroit fans were buzzing.
Will the Lions live up to the hype? Can they take over the NFC North and finally win a playoff game or two? Vegas experts think so. Detroit is listed at -130 at Bet MGM to capture the NFC North title. That’s saying a lot for a team who hasn’t won a division title since 1993.
Now here at SOD we aren’t a “Johnny come lately” when it comes to the Lions. Here’s the proof. We were on them last season – so yeah, we were a bit ahead of the curve!
