Joique Bell said before the season that his goal this year was to be a 1,000-yard rusher.
Through the first three weeks of the season, he’s rushed for a grand total of 22 yards on 20 carries. He’ll need to pick it up in a big way to reach that goal now.
Bell had just six yards on 10 carries in Sunday’s 24-12 loss to Denver.
His outing was rough, sure, but the blocking in front of him was atrocious most of the game.
Lions running backs have to make defenders miss too many times in their own backfield.
