Did anyone think the Detroit Lions defense would be at this point right now? I mean I know one guy wrote an article about it and everyone laughed at him, but did anyone think it was truly possible?
Through four games, the Lions are allowing just 17.5 points per game. That’s fourth in the league and way down from last year’s 22.4 PPG.
They’re also the best team in the league at forcing turnovers. No seriously. That’s no joke. The Lions have forced a league-high 11 turnovers. They had 14 total in 2016.
