The Detroit Lions head to their bye week at 3-3 after Sunday’s loss to the Saints in New Orleans.
It’s never ideal to enter the bye week after a loss, especially a loss in which the Lions were thoroughly outplayed most of the contest.
How do the Lions keep their 52-38 loss from festering a bit longer with the extra time off?
Maybe Lions head coach Jim Caldwell doesn’t mind Sunday's game festering for a bit longer. He hopes his players use it as motivation for a better played post-bye 10 games.
