DETROIT -- Shocked by the Lions' convincing victory Sunday night against New England? OK, fine. This team looked like garbage the first two weeks of the season. They had minus-3 yards in the first quarter the last time they played in this building. On Sunday night, they had 126. Against the New England Patriots. And Tom Brady.
Who, by the way, had fewer yards passing (minus-1) than me (zero) in the first quarter.
The Lions used ball-control offense and stifling defense to turn away New England with a convincing 26-10 win at Ford Field.
