After a brutal outing against the Jets to start the season and a disappointing loss to the 49ers the following week, the Lions managed to upset the Patriots in prime time.
Bleacher Report’s Kristopher Knox gave the Lions an A+ for their performance on Sunday. He credited the improved defensive scheme and the effective offensive playcalling for the win. Coupled with finally getting a 100-yard rusher, there were plenty of positives from Matt Patricia’s first career victory.
The Lions received an F in Week 1 and a C- in Week 2.
