On the ROTB Lions’ game preview podcast with Blake Murphy, I predicted that the game was a toss-up and could go either way. When I looked at the Lions’ offensive personnel, I was extremely concerned about containing an offense loaded with firepower at all the skills positions and complimented by a highly competent offensive line.
The way the Football Team game ended the week before with the Cardinals’ defense “backing off” to the tune of handing the Washington team two quick TD drives, that left a poor taste in my mouth, much like the bad taste I tried to Listerine away following so many of the Cardinals’ game last year.
