The Detroit Lions are set to face a pivotal season as they aim to maintain their status as a top offensive unit in the NFL, following two consecutive years as the leading fantasy offense. The departure of offensive coordinator Ben Johnson raises questions about the team's productivity and the impact on key players like Jared Goff, Amon-Ra St. Brown, and the running back duo of Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery. While Gibbs is positioned as a consensus top-three running back, Montgomery's value sits lower, leading to speculation on how their roles may shift under new play-calling.

Gibbs' explosive potential was evident last season, showcasing his ability to carry the offense, while Montgomery's impressive touchdown tally could be challenging to replicate. As the Lions transition into 2025, the effectiveness of their revamped offensive strategy will be critical for fantasy managers looking to capitalize on their star players.
