Secondary a Primary Concern

Again, we have issues that keep us from the top of the league but even in those areas there are teams with worse situations. At least we have some areas of real strength (LB's and DL). Maybe not elite, but certainly good enough to compete with top teams.

Detriot is also going to be starting Keiland Williams at RB. He was pretty good when he was here, as a reserve, but that's scary that a team would be starting a guy cut from our team at RB in Week 1...and another potential cut from our paper thin secondary at CB.

If Stafford reverts to his injuy-prone self, it will be a long, miserable season for this Lions team that everyone loves in preseason predictions. They also have so many off-the-field issues and Suh's on-the-field temper to deal with.

I just don't see the Lions doing much this year, especially with Green Bay and Chicago beating up on them in the division. If Stafford does down, they'll be battling the Vikings for the basement.
