The Lions have been a weird team this year. Offensively, they've put up some points, but they've been a defensive albatross. They've also lost three games by a combined ten points so sans the complete implosion against New England last week, they've been in games.

Assuming our defense is who we think they are, they should be able to hold serve. It's just a matter of this offense producing more than 2-3 TD's.

A loss against them or the Bears before the bye would be a massive disappointment. It's not out of the question that both wild cards could come out of the NFCE as the Giants don't exactly have a difficult schedule left either.

Detroit is the #2 offense in football in yards and average 28 points per game. They will keep coming at you as we’ve seen in a lot of there games.

The defense however is dead last in yards allowed by a lot. Even if Coop has to play we should be able to move the ball.

This should be a cake walk but that team won’t quit as we’ve witnessed all season. And yes they were shut out against NE but if you haven’t noticed lately Bill is getting his mojo back folks.

It will be a good game for Dak to come back to. The Lions defense isn't very good. Dak and the running game should be able to effectively move the ball against them. Giving Dak an easier defense to play against.
Our defense needs to step up.

not lately
right and how many of these were the lions defense? LMAO that was the 9ers and bucs arguably TWO top 5 NFL defenses who literally made Kelln Moore look silly.. smh keep it up we see you hater! Dak can do what rush cant and expose weak defenses. You see what he did to ATL and NY late last year that what weak ds look like and rush strghles to get 20 and dak clearly can drop 30+ quickly because hes able tor un a wide open offense.

when we talk Green bay that narrative can change but his thread said lets talk Lions not the 9ers, not the Bucs

Umm okkk?

....regardless, the record. Goff and Co aren't going to lay down.

I expect a good game. Of course, all eyes will be on Dak.

This could be his breakout of funk game.


Or a game that we will struggle against scoring etc. Score could be 6-6 at halftime

they rolled over Sunday. :muttley:.got the big Zero..

right missing a few key players but lets be real its the lions, our D isnt an outlier they ar for real, only saving grace for this to not be 30-14 game is our run d is suspect and that what they do best, will work for little while but given we got taste of the run heavy eagles and with Mobile qb, lions will be a welcome snack with Goff.... sur Dak will be bit rusty first half but in the end this should be 2 score win.

Lions put up 35 on the Eagles and 24 vs the Vikings, so when their offense is on, they can put up some points against solid teams.

The good news for us is their defense has given up 28+ in every game except vs the Steelers (19).

I expect we blow them the F out. One thing about Dak is we rarely go on losing streaks with him and McCarthy
