Lions players back Matt Patricia as the right man for the job

Green Bay, Wis. — If you were expecting finger-pointing coming out of the Detroit Lions' embarrassing loss to the Green Bay Packers, you're going to be disappointed. Despite a disjointed effort on Sunday, the team continues to present a unified front publicly.

In his third season, things couldn't be going much worse for coach Matt Patricia. Coming off a disastrous season where the team won just three games, the Lions are 0-2 in 2020, having blown double-digit leads against a pair of division rivals.

But when asked if Patricia was the man to dig them out of the hole he's helped put them in, multiple players pinned them blame on themselves as opposed to the head coach and his staff.
