After a grueling loss at home against the Philadelphia Eagles, The Detroit Lions have a week 2 matchup where they face off against the 1-0 Washington Commanders. The Lions have a chance to even out their record this week, and get a redemption win at their home field.
The Detroit Lions showed some sparks last week, and the sparks caught fire in the second half. D’andre Swift Dazzled the field with a 175 Yard, 1 TD performance, while on the opposite side of the ball, the defense sputtered all game and never quite found a rhythm.
This week, The Detroit Lions will rebound. Yes, the Commanders have a remarkably dynamic receiving core, but they do lack one thing the eagles have, which is a quarterback who can escape the pass rush effectively, which is going to severely hurt the ability to close out against a Lions team who had no problem establishing pressure against Jalen Hurts
Prediction:
Lions Defense gets challenged yet again, but Lions beat the Commanders
Final Score: 31-27
