Sunday’s road face-off with the Miami Dolphins (1:00 p.m. ET, FOX) will be a big game for the Detroit Lions. A win truly keeps their playoff hopes alive. While a loss would be crippling.
This game will be the first chance to see how head coach Matt Patricia comes out of a bye week. Will the Detroit Lions be prepared and look sound? Or will they look like they did Week 1 against the New York Jets? Despite plenty of time to prepare, that first game was a train wreck.
That Jets game remains the biggest question mark of the season.
