There has been individuals who had leadership capabilities (Jerry Ball, Spielman, Raiola, etc)…but were not the stars of the team.
The closest was Billy Sims (remember him slamming those Gatorade cups??)…but the top-four star players since then (Barry, Calvin, Suh, Stafford) were variably soft-spoken guys.
They’ve never had a Mike Singletary, a TJ Watt, a Ray Lewis - not to mention a Brady or Rodgers…
They never had a STAR player who DEMANDED the team’s BEST performance.
That ‘COULD’ be a factor in this menial Lions-Culture, where they’ve never been able to establish a true identity…
