FIRST DOWN: NOT JUST ANOTHER LOSS
Sunday’s 45-10 trouncing at the hands of the Kansa City Chiefs wasn’t just another loss for the Detroit Lions.
Sure, the Lions have seen their fair share of losses this season – seven in eight games – but Sunday’s debacle at Wembley Stadium was in view of the whole country and world.
The Lions didn’t embarrass themselves in front of a local crowd at Ford Field and on a regional broadcast. They did so on the national stage at England’s most prized stadium during the NFL International Series.
