The Detroit Lions head into a pivotal Week 3 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings where they can push themselves above .500 for the first time during Dan Campbell’s tenure as head coach.
So far this season, the Lions are proving that they will hang in there with anybody, just as the coaches have been preaching. If last year’s games against the Vikings mean anything, then we could be in for another close one. Each of the last two matchups were decided by just two points, with both games ending in last second scores.
If the Lions want to hang around in this one, they’ll need to continue to have guys step up in place of some of their injured starters.
