Okay, so we don't totally suck as I've written before. But, the football gods have apparently decided that the Detroit Lions are not supposed to win. DET 34 STL 41.
This was an exciting game to watch with all of the scoring that was going on, but Detroit really needed to beat St. Louis and get a notch in the win column. We are now 0-4 and going nowhere fast.
The offense, under Mike Martz, is starting to gel. Kevin Jones is running well. Roy Williams is making plays, Mike Furrey is proving to be a dependable addition to the receiver corps and Jon Kitna is impressive under center, though he was responsible for all three of Detroit's turnovers- two interceptions and a fumble- today. It's the defense, under Donnie Henderson, that needs to really step things up. The Lions have no interceptions, no defensive touchdowns and just five quarterback sacks through four games.
I can tell things are improving for the Lions under new head coach Rod Marinelli but the bottom line is we aren't winning yet. So, it's same result, different system.
Oh, Good Evening!
