Since the Detroit Lions just completed their dress rehearsal, we may as well treat Pride of Detroit the same. During the season, we’ll be handing out a report card for the Lions after every game, grading out each position group and analyzing their play.
This is particularly difficult for the preseason, since depth units perform drastically different. For example, what grade should I give the quarterbacks when Matthew Stafford played very well, but David Fales did not?
So for this week only (there won’t be a report card for next week’s preseason game), I’ll be handing out a starters grade and a depth grade.
