Detroit Lions: New offensive line mentality could lead to success

The Detroit Lions think that this year’s offensive line could play with a mean streak.

In Darrell Bevell’s first season as the offensive coordinator of the Detroit Lions, he was hoping to establish a new offensive mentality and rely heavily on the running game.

Those hopes were not quite fulfilled in 2019, as the Lions’ rushing attack finished 21st in the league going off total yardage, with its 4.1 yards per attempt placing them 22nd in the league.

The Lions also ranked 29th in the league in rushing touchdowns with a measly seven scores on the ground.
