Free Press sports writer Dave Birkett breaks down the Detroit Lions' Week 1 road game against the Arizona Cardinals:
Lions run offense vs. Cardinals run defense
We don’t know much about the Lions’ offense, but we do know new coordinator Darrell Bevell wants to run the ball. Bevell had some of the league’s best running games in his previous stops as play caller, at Minnesota and Seattle, and he should feature Kerryon Johnson heavily this season.
