The Detroit Lions are hoping to put Week 7’s ugly performance against the Baltimore Ravens behind them. Bad games happen, but the true test of a team and their grit is how they respond to getting punched in the mouth.
With the bye week just a day away, the Las Vegas Raiders appear to be an ideal opponent. The Raiders are 3-4 on the year, with their only wins coming against the lowly Packers, Broncos and Patriots—three teams who all have losing records through Week 8.
However, the Raiders are a scrappy group and they have a lot of talent, particularly on the offensive side of the ball.
