Lions vs. Patriots bold prediction: Hutchinson colonizes New England’s backfield

Aidan Hutchinson came and went in the second week of the season, or so it seems.

In his three other games, he’s totaled six tackles and three quarterback hits, with no sacks to show for. With the defensive line struggling mightily in recent weeks, it’s time for Hutchinson to step up, and he has got just the right conditions for that to happen against the Patriots Sunday.
