Will the momentum from a rollicking win at Lambeau Field in the league's 2022 regular-season finale carry over to the 2023 NFL Kickoff Game at Arrowhead Stadium? That's what we're here to explore! But as always, before we look forward, let's take a quick glance back. It was pretty incredible - and the trajectory has Lions fans champing at the bit to kick off the coming season.
