After the Detroit Lions lost to the Seattle Seahawks 37-31 in Week 2, fans and some local writers expressed their frustrations with defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn. It wasn’t just about allowing 37 points and nearly 400 yards of offense, but in Year 3 of Glenn’s defense, it was hard to point to any progress that had been made on that side of the ball.
That conversation was shut down quickly.
The next week, Detroit held the Falcons to six points and 183 yards of offense, and on Thursday night, the Packers managed just 20 points and 230 yards of offense—including only 20 yards of offense in the first half.
