Way too early on Goff's HOF chances, and that is the beauty of this whole thing, it's the next 5 years or so that so many Lions are expected to make their cases for the HOF.
I would rather have a player just coming into his prime than someone who had a great career, I want to win games, not arguments.
Put Goff, Sewell, St, Brown, Hutchinson in that lane, if their next 5 years goes like it looks like it will and mix in a ring or two and those 4 are looking like HOF players.
Then you have to consider Gibbs and Branch because they sure play like elite players.
Where are we going with Campbell and JaMo and LaPorta and McNeil and Joseph, can they take that bump winning teams always get and turn it into a gold jacket, any one of them could, the Hall has plenty very good players that played on great teams.
I just mentioned 11 players with varying degree of HOF potential and all just coming into their prime. I'm not including the last two draft classes, yet.
Sorry got off subject just a little but this is just an insane amount of young talent.
Great mailbag! Great questions from my fellow fans and truly thoughtful answers, Justin. Really appreciate the time and care you put into all the articles you write!
Great mailbag, Justin. Super interesting. Excited for Sunday night!
I’d add the Rams as a contender as long as Stafford stays healthy.
Good call-out on Jahvid Best. Fun highlight of his for those that want to see that Olympic speed in action:

Love the Q&A columns just a bit more than my whole membership with you and your columns. Best Lions related money i ever spent!
Is there no option for a late afternoon Sunday game to be flexed to the early afternoon?
A bad matchup could be downgraded to a 1 p.m. slot. That's never considered an upgrade.
