Do the Detroit Lions really value talent over scheme after signing so many ex-Patriots?
One of the most exciting things for fans of the Detroit Lions after the announcement that the team hired former New England Patriots coordinator Matt Patricia as their new head coach back in 2018, is what his addition meant for Motown’s defense.
After all, Patricia was the defensive coordinator for the Pats for six years, helping to led New England to two Super Bowl titles. At the bare minimum, the defensive guru would shore up that side of the ball in Detroit.
