For the second time in the first four weeks of the season, the Detroit Lions are playing in primetime at home. Get used to it. It’s the new normal.
While primetime games can be annoying for those covering the games, I cannot deny the pleasure of getting to sit and just enjoy a full day of Sunday NFL football without having to work tirelessly. While Detroit’s history of playing at 1 p.m. ET nearly every week of the season made for a nice routine, I rarely got to watch other teams play as much as I would have liked.
