Ask POD: Preseason opener fallout

NOTHING TO SEE HERE, MOVE ALONG. EVERYTHING IS FINE.

Okay, so that wasn’t fun. The Detroit Lions got steamrolled by the New England Patriots in a game that doesn’t amount to anything, but certainly didn’t leave fans at Ford Field and at home leaving warm and fuzzy about the team.

But we have to talk about it. As much as we’d love to plug our ears and wail “LA LA LA LA LA,” while someone tries to show you the box score or give you injury updates, Thursday night happened and we can’t erase it.
