The Detroit Lions 2019 ‘training camp of a new era’ has resumed in Houston, Texas this week as Matt Patricia’s team is participating in their second consecutive week of joint practices. This time with the Texans.
After a disappointing opening act last year, Patricia is expecting bigger and better things this year. And quite frankly for good reason.
We all know how Matt Patricia’s philosophy and scheme didn’t mesh with the group of players he inherited. That isn’t a new tale. It’s something that has happened frequently in the NFL. Back in the 1960s, 70s and even 80s all a coach asked for was good players and they believed they could make things work.
