The Detroit Lions are ready to turn things around for good.
Dan Campbell has orchestrated a major culture turnaround, and the fans are buying it.
As a matter of fact, Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network reports that tickets for today’s Thanksgiving divisional clash vs. the Green Bay Packers have led to an unprecedented frenzy.
Apparently, standing-room-only tickets are going for as much as $200 in the secondary market, and there are more than 7,000 people on the season-ticket waitlist, which is the first time that has happened at Ford Field.
Life has changed for the #Lions going into today’s Thanksgiving game. Cases in point?

This is the first time in the past 30 years that the Lions have made it to Thanksgiving as undisputed divisional contenders.
The Lions are 8-2 for the season and could even finish the night as divisional leaders with a win over their divisional rivals.
It’s crazy to think that this Lions team had made coach Campbell cry tears of frustration just a couple of years ago, and the best part about this is that they’re just going to get better, as they have plenty of youth in their core.
The Lions can dominate with their defense, or they can hurt you on offense in so many ways.
The team plays like a solid unit, and they’re all committed to their common goal of proving the doubters wrong.
Needless to say, they still need to prove themselves against the likes of the Dallas Cowboys, Philadelphia Eagles, and San Francisco 49ers, but it wouldn’t be shocking to see them going the distance to make the Super Bowl.
