The Detroit Lions only won five games last year, and that led to wholesale changes to both their front office with the hiring of new general manager Brad Holmes and to their coaching staff with the hiring of head coach Dan Campbell.
Holmes and Campbell got right to work remaking the front office, building a new coaching staff, and revamping the roster. Holmes told detroitlions.com in a recent interview there was a lot of work to be done changing the culture and making significant changes to the roster when he and Campbell first got their jobs.
Just how much the coaching staff and roster changes will impact wins and losses on the field is yet to be determined, but improving on these five numbers from last year will go a long way to getting more notches in the win column.
Here are 5 numbers that need to change in 2021:
1. Number: 499
What it means: Offensive points allowed in 2020
NFL rank: 32nd
Twentyman: When it's all said and done, this is the most important statistic in football. How often can you force your opponent to turn the football over, make them punt it or have to settle for field goals. Detroit's defense didn't do enough of all three last year as they set a franchise record for the most points allowed in a season. To put this number in a little bit of perspective, the league average last year was 380 points allowed.
