2023 Schedule Prediction Thread (WAYYY too early)

Why not?

9/7 at Chiefs - Chiefs coming off super bowl, crazy night, don't get discouraged. Chiefs, 38-17 LOSS
9/17 vs. Seahawks - Revenge from last year, school Devon Weatherspoon and Smith-Njigba decides to sit out.  Lions, 35-20 WIN
9/24 vs. Falcons - The Return of Jeff Okudah...unlike the return of Joey Harrington or other Lions.  Desmond Ridder?  Lions, 33-10 WIN
9/28 at Packers (Thurs Night) - Basically a whole new team.  Jordan Love is no Aaron.  Lions, 27-21, WIN
10/8 vs. Panthers - Bryce Young.  Rookie QBs on the road are like boobs on a bull, worthless.  Lions 24-9, WIN
10/15 vs. Buccaneers - FUMBLE!!! Lions make some mistakes here and fumble a victory away.  Bucs, 19-17 LOSS
10/22 at Ravens - Lions suffer against a relentless rushing attack.  Lose 2 in a row.  Ravens, 33-20 LOSS
10/30 MNF vs. Raiders - Not a draft I hated more.  Jimmy G?  No defense to save you.  Lions, 42-21, WIN
11/12 at Chargers - Bye after a Monday night?  That's new.  Chargers don't fold until week 11, Chargers 28-20 LOSS
11/19 vs. Bears - Montgomery goes for 400 yards (that's a joke). Bears are dreadful, Fields can't throw, Lions keep 10 in the box.  Lions, 48-17, WIN
11/23 vs. Packers - Lions destroy and send the Pack home and still have energy to do another Turkey trot.  Lions, 42-27 WIN
12/3 at Saints - First OT game of the year but thankfully, Derek Carr throws a pick and Badgley hits the FG.  Lions, 34-31, OT WIN
12/10 at Bears - Fields is out because he is the only one who can make a play for the team.  Lions, 24-16 WIN
12/17 vs. Broncos - Wilson continues his awful play with no defense to stop anyone.  Lions, 31-21, WIN
12/24 at Vikings - No Thielen to kill Oruwariye.  Dalvin Cook injured.  Jefferson distraction of not wanting to stay in MN.  Lions clinch North.  Lions, 33-20, WIN
12/30 at Dallas (MNF Saturday) - Dallas win gets them NFC East, Lions in already.  Battle for seeding.  Lions lose late.  Cowboys, 34-31, LOSS
1/7 vs. Vikings - Game means nothing to both teams but Lions gut it out.  Lions, 21-18

There you go.  I see 12-5 with a stupid loss to Tampa and undefeated in NFC North.  Interesting the Lions play the Vikings twice in the last 3 weeks o the season.  I think Jordan Love is going to be a mess in Green Bay and Fields has to prove he can actually read a defense and pass the ball.
