The Lions' 2023 schedule won't be set for a few more months, but we know their opponents now that the 2022 season has concluded. And from the early looks of it, life will be a lot easier at home than on the road.
That's always the case in the NFL, but Detroit's home slate in 2023 looks much cushier than its road slate.
Six of the Lions' nine road games will come against playoff teams from this season, while six of their eight home games will come against non-playoff teams. They will play each team from the NFC South and AFC West in the annual rotation of divisional matchups.
On top of their own division opponents, the Lions will host the Broncos (5-12), Raiders (6-11), Falcons (7-10), Panthers (7-10) and Seahawks (9-8), and visit the Chiefs (14-3), Cowboys (12-5), Chargers (10-7), Ravens (10-7), Bucs (8-9) and Saints (7-10).
The combined winning percentage this season of their home opponents: .426. The combined winning percentage of their road opponents: .555.
