The Detroit Lions have issues. I think we all knew that would be the case this year given their roster depletion this offseason, but Week 3’s close contest against the Baltimore Ravens may have caused some fans to forget. The Chicago Bears were more than happy to serve the Lions fanbase a stark reminder: this team is not close to being a true contender right now.
Unfortunately, the issues are everywhere. For the past three weeks, the offense has gone scoreless in one half. The defense has had severe issues in both stopping the run and slowing the opposing quarterback.
