On Sunday against the New England Patriots, the Detroit Lions generated a total of two pressures, according to PFF, the lowest figure of any team last week. The average amount of pressures by a team in Week 5 was 16.6.
Detroit ranks 27th in PFF’s pass rush grade and 31st in ESPN’s pass rush win rate. On their current three-game skid, the Lions have managed a total of one sack.
The Lions have a pass rush problem and coach Dan Campbell knows it.
“That’s one of the areas we’re looking at is, how do we help our guys generate more pressure?
