Since falling behind by 21 points, 74-53, the Pistons have gone on a 16-4 run in under 3 minutes. They trail 78-69. Those 16 points included 3s from Cade, Duncan, and Green.
Then made his next one. Then defended a pass to get the ball back. He's on the most impressive stretch right now. #JavonteGreen #Pistons.
Cade being the only Piston (of the six to play) who hasn't scored this game should -- oddly enough -- be reassuring for Pistons fans.
13-13 with 6:14 left in the first.
Christian Izien has been a very bright spot for the Lions defense today outside of the front 4. 10 tackles, 3TFL, 1 PD. He's ballin' today.
Lions use that jumbo package to punch it in from 1 yard out to take a 24-10 lead over the Jets. Gibbs gets another tuddy.
The only problem with Jahmyr Gibbs scoring a TD is that this defense has to go on the field after it. Swiss cheese doesn't have enough holes to describe how poorly they're playing.
Even when it LOOKS like the Lions are playing good defense, they aren't. Sadiq with a very nice 24-yard TD there.
This Lions o-line has definitely seen better days. Some plays can't even develop because he's not getting any time to even complete his play-action motion. Sheesh.
Jahmyr Gibbs is averaging 28 touches per game through the first two games. Here in this third game against the Jets, the Lions opened with 6 passes on their 7 seven plays. Of those seven plays, 1 run and 1 reception for Gibbs. And Vaki has gotten a carry on the first drive.
Everybody in the building knew MCDC was gonna go for that on 4th-and-2...and then he didn't, and no one on the offensive line flinched when the DT jumped. That was a misfire by the Lions. Could've gotten the first down for free.
