Lions defense is last in the NFL in yards per rush with a 5.1 yard average.
I haven't seen or heard this mentioned anywhere yet - Figured I'd put these stats together quickly before the game.
Here's the lions opponents rushing stats vs them so far this year:
Vikings: Rush-yards-TDs: 22-105-2
Cardinals: Rush-yards-TDs: 25-87-1
Commanders: Rush-yards-TDs: 22-120-1
Bears: Rush-yards-TDs: 16-131-1
Packers: Rush-yards-TDs: 33-180-0
Browns: Rush-yards-TDs: 21-126-0
Bengals: Rush-yards-TDs: 18-57-0
3 of the 5 rushing TDs they gave up have been long runs:
Adrian Peterson up the middle for 78 yards, touchdown
Alfred Morris right end for 30 yards, touchdown
Matt Forte right end for 53 yards, touchdown
One or all of our RBs could do well vs them today. Doesn't look like Murray will be playing today.
I Think Dunbar could go off on them. I say Dunbar since I believe he is the best pass blocker and may get the nod for quite a few reps.
On a side note the lions have given up 10 passing TDs - But also have 10 INTs.
