Week 8: #Lions 31 NYG 25 A Good Way To Start The Second Half Of The Season

Hey there Lions fans! Add a W to win column and start the season’s second half off right. Randy,Tom, and Rich were all ready for trade talk but Bob Quinn made no new moves. We start with the injury report. Some new names appear after this one but it’s the name that didn’t appear pre-game, Da’Shawn Hand, that made a big difference. The run defense got a real shot in the arm and had their best performance of the season holding. NYG running back Sayquon Barcley to 64 yards. On the other side of the ball the Lions running game woes continued. Can Ty Johnson catch a break? It seems every other time he touches the ball his efforts are called off by a penalty. Matthew Stafford had another great game, as well as the receiving core. How about Marvin Hall, the speedster we didn’t know we had!!! The third phase of the game in Special Teams has two very special players in Miles Killabrew and Jalen Reeves-Maybin are #1 and #2, respectively, leading the NFL in tackles. The biggest roster move this week was LB and Special Teams ace Steve Longa being elevated to the 53 man roster. The rich get richer. Next up are the Oakland Raiders. Seemingly better than their 3-4 record we’ll how the Lions fare on this trip out west.
