Ain't no party like Aidan Hutchinson's sack party for Detroit Lions in win over Washington

Free Press sports writer Carlos Monarrez tackles the tough questions after the Detroit Lions' Week 2 36-27 victory over the Washington Commanders on Sunday at Ford Field.

Is that the best first half of football you’ve seen the Lions play?

Yes! Wait, yes? Yes! I think. As I get older — and I seem to age a lot faster during Sundays at Ford Field — the memory banks are harder to access, but I would say it’s the best half I can remember since 2006. Everything the Lions did seemed to turn to gold in the first half, when they outscored Washington, 22-0.
