The Detroit Lions went from riding a high coming off a week one win over the Kansas City Chiefs to limping out of a tough loss to the Seattle Seahawks. With a handful of major injuries coming out of the game, not having a win to cling to stings a bit more.
Offensively, Jared Goff outside of a costly pick-six looked tremendous. The ball was being spread to a variety of different receivers and because of it, the Seahawks defense was kept guessing. The run game was banged up after an injury to David Montgomery so it had some issues at times.
All of that paled in comparison to the rough go of things the defense had from both their performances but also in terms of the injuries they sustained. The loss’ of C.J. Gardner-Johnson and James Houston will be felt immediately, perhaps the grades from PFF will shine a light on some positives in a game that needs them.
