The offensive line is really, really good.
The defensive line is really, really good.
Goff and Gibbs are playing at an elite level. ARSB and JaMo are as explosive a WR duo as there is, LaPorta is an elite TE, even Teslaa looks like a legit WR3.
The LBs are good but overtaxed.
The secondary has to be patched, but even teams with no talent can put up a fight. They can’t even hold up for a matter of seconds. This is a team that, for the first time since Dan got hired, isn’t going in the same direction, and it’s on him to fix that or this will be a waste.
It’s frustrating how much individual talent the Lions have to look this bad.
The secondary is a dumpster fire, but no lack of talent makes you historically terrible, especially when the pass rush in front of you is really good.
Brad needs to upgrade, but problem #1 is coaching.
Luka looks like he’s in amazing shape. He actually looks trim. That’s going to be great for his durability this season.
It could also be that playing against the Kings makes everyone look amazing.
The Suns have come to Michigan for preseason every year since Mat Ishbia bought the team and this pretty much how it’s gone every time. Would not read too much into anything.
Jared Goff is completing 68% of his passes in 4 games. Top-4 in both yards and passer rating among QBs that have played every game. That’s as flawless as he’s gonna get.
9TDs, 0 INTs.
What should scare people is if he hadn’t played turnover free football, Lions are probably 0-4
