The Detroit Lions secondary wasn’t as bad in 2018 as some would lead you to believe. Most reports say that Detroit’s corners are their biggest concern heading into the 2019 season.
I, for one, do not share this belief and neither should you. Yes, there were some rough spots throughout last season with Detroit’s cornerback group, but all together they actually played okay.
The Lions’ total defense ranked 16th in points allowed and 10th in yards given up to finish off the 2018 season, according to stat site pro-football-reference.com. Detroit’s pass defense was ranked eighth in yards allowed with 3,599 but ranked a disappointing 19th in touchdowns allowed, with 29.
