After a disappointing end to week 2 against the Seahawks, the Lions remain at home but this time against a different NFC bird in the Falcons. Despite America being upset with Arthur Smith and his usage of his skill players, he has the Falcons firing on all cylinders and the Lions can’t look past that.
Against the Seahawks, injuries piled up and the defense struggled to get stops against Tyler Lockett and D.K. Metcalf. The Falcons will have that same game film so perhaps this is the week that Desmond Ridder opens up the offense.
Preventing that and more will be the key to a Lions victory on Sunday.
