Good grief. What an atrocious win. Mahogany tripping over his own feet, face-planting, and injuring himself was a microcosm for how that second half went for the Lions.

Our secondary got badly exposed but at least we face-planted into a W without hurting ourselves too badly.

Unfortunately, we won’t be nearly as fortunate in Buffalo.

Yeah, that 2nd half wasn't good. Hopefully just the defense getting tired in week 1. Pass rush needs to really step up to help the back 7. But the QB was getting it out quick.

Personally, it’s hard to imagine fatigue being much of a factor as the reason for our secondary’s collapse. Perhaps our defensive line got worn down, but those guys in the secondary are elite athletes. I think they got beat because they’re just not very good. We’ll get confirmation one way or another on Thursday.
