Detroit Lions hope Jared Goff rebounds under new coordinator Drew Petzing

Summary

The Detroit Lions are looking to improve their performance in the upcoming season, with Jared Goff as their key quarterback. After a disappointing 2025 season, where Goff recorded his lowest Total QBR, the Lions have hired Drew Petzing as the new offensive coordinator. Petzing's ability to revitalize the offense, along with the potential repositioning of All-Pro tackle Penei Sewell, could significantly impact Goff's success. Detroit also faces a favorable schedule in 2026, projected to be the sixth-easiest in the NFL, potentially aiding their recovery. The team aims to get back to Super Bowl contention following last season's issues.
