The Detroit Lions’ defense has gotten off to a horrendous start after four games, so matching up against the 23rd-ranked New England Patriots scoring offense this Sunday, who are down to their third-string quarterback, is just what the doctor ordered. It is the movable object versus the stoppable force.
After last week’s atrocity, it’s time for defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn to prepare his guys and show some improvement. 35 points allowed per game is beyond unacceptable. Huge credit to the offense for trying to keep up and score 35 or more points of their own each week, because we might need to see it again.
