Lions Preview
The Pats enter the game 8-2 with the 2nd best record in the NFL despite being the best team in the league right now. The Lions just got beat by the Cardinals, but have beaten very good teams like Green Bay and Miami. This game should be entertaining. The last few times the Pats played Detroit in the preseason, the got kicked around by their ferocious D-Line, and got destroyed. Albeit that was preseason, but still a discouraging sign. This year, though, Brady is actually playing like the elite QB he is, so we might have a chance. We're also playing at home this time.
Offense: Both teams deliver potent offenses, and have superstars on their teams. We have the Gronk, they have a Megatron. Needless to say it will probably be high scoring game. I expect us to be equal because of Detroit's D-Line.
Advantage: Push
Defense: We both have really talented defenses and I think that it will be a very physical game. Detroit has that monstrous D-Line, we have a ball hawking secondary. I actually think our D will play better because of the fact that we are at home and we are great at turnovers
Advantage: The Pats
This game will be very close for sure. Hopefully, Revis and Calvin Johnson really go at it, because that would be awesome. I predict the Patriots will win just because we have Brady and they have the inconsistent Stafford.
Prediction
Detroit 30
New England 35
