The Detroit Lions have a golden opportunity to put their slow, disappointing start behind them and reach a respectable 2-2 record before their early bye week. Imagine being able to say this team was a dropped pass away from a 3-1 start during one of their most difficult stretches of the schedule?
Okay, back to reality. In order for the Lions to do that, they’re going to need to pull out an upset even bigger than last week’s road victory over the Arizona Cardinals. The New Orleans Saints may be 1-2, but they have an extremely talented roster.
