Special Teams are Thriving for the Lions

Throughout this wild Detroit Lions season, a weekly question arises before each game: Which side of the ball is going to show up today? There have been games where the defense is non-existent, and others where the offense is stalled yet the D holds their ground. It’s always worrisome when both start to struggle, but for the most part, one has been able to make up for the other (even if it is on the last drive.) However, what gets lost in these wild finishes are just how clutch Detroit’s special teams have been.

Just look at Thanksgiving.
