Lions on a roll

Two games does not a season make but the Detroit Lions have played two impressive games showing great improvement on both offense and defense compared to the prior 10 seasons.

Offensive weapons include a talented quarterback in Stafford, wide receivers Johnson, Burleson (thanks Seattle) and rookie Young. Stafford is finding the single covered receiver and the open receiver in a zone defense.

On defense the linebackers are now as fast as our old safeties and the safeties are as fast as our old corner backs. The new corners are doing well. It all starts with a talented front four deep enough to change personnel depending on the situation (just like the back 7 does).

Could be a very fun year, a loud Ford Field, and a spot in the playoffs.

Prediction: 10-6
