The win over Atlanta was a display of how two struggling teams keep things interesting. Atlanta had the game as they say, ‘in the bag’ and then they gave the ball back to Detroit’s quarter back who has a history of pulling off miracles within minutes to play. Story book ending for Detroit.
Atlanta was in pitiful shape (1-5) coming into this game and they should have never been in contention. Looking at the stats, it’s hard to determine who played over or under their ability.
The Lions have to do better with third down conversion against the Colts compared to previous outings. Expect Rivers to pick apart the Lion’s pass defense because his offensive line provides the protection.
All in all, another entertaining game between two average teams is all you can expect.
