Yeah, I mean I didn't like some of the things I saw vs the Raiders but you have to just live with his mistakes. Johnson nor Norman have done anything to earn the start over Lenoir. Agreed. And at least Lenoir has upside (as evidenced by the previous games) and the team has a larger stake in his development. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's made plays all camp and preseason and at least deserves the opportunity to start until Moseley gets healthy. No pitch count for Bosa/Ford, but I'd still wager to bet that they take it pretty easy on both, especially Ford. I wouldn't expect more than 15-18 snaps for Ford. First play of the game does Kyle bring out both QBs to field?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinerNation21 Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 This is the first I'm seeing our uniform schedule. I love that we're getting our new color throwbacks at home against the Packers, Colts, and Rams - all primetime games. We're wearing our white throwbacks @ Seattle, which feels fitting and appropriate. Also, we're only wearing these twice this year, and our color throwbacks 4 times at home this year.

If Decker can't go, that's a huge blow to the Lions as they're going to be relying on Decker and Ragnow to keep our pass rush at bay. This actually segues nicely into: My keys for victory Pass Rush - The Lions have a top 10 LT and C on their line, but their guards are not great at pass blocking. Jackson is a decent run blocking LG, but he was terrible in pass protection. Vaitai is generally not good in either. Getting Ragnow's attention on double teams will allow either of their guards to be one-on-one with our interior pass rushers. Obviously, beating Decker (if he plays), could entirely collapse their pass protection. That's no easy feat though, as Decker is one of the better pass blocking LT in the game right now. Pass Protection - The only thing causing me concern with the Lions is their pass rushing group. Flowers and Okwara are no joke and they're very high on Onwuzurike rushing from the interior. Keeping these guy at bay should help to exploit a weak secondary. Things I'm interested in seeing Has Okudah made strides over the offseason, or is he still bad? How will Lenoir look? Assuming Verrett will be on Tyrell Williams all game and K'Waun on St. Brown, can Lenoir lock down Quintez Cephus? I'd like to think so. Is Sewell really this bad? I'm assuming most of his struggles are stemming from rust from opting out last year. He will have his hands full regardless of which side of the line he plays on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah opting out and playing as a RT aren't doing Sewell any favors. Maybe its those short arms too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-ALL-DAY Posted September 9, 2021 Author Share Posted September 9, 2021 So fair to say Moseley will not be playing on Sunday. Come on up rook! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinerNation21 Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 It seems like Lance should be good to go, but I wouldn't put it past Shanny to designate Lance as "Questionable" just to mess with people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Sewell continues his poor pre-season play and Decker really is out for this game, I'd put our sack total over/under at 5. I expect a ton of plays in the backfield.
