Field Gulls
The Detroit Lions stumbled out of the gates with a fairly one-sided loss to the Green Bay Packers and have since won four straight, scoring at least 34 points every time. I guess they don’t totally miss Ben Johnson and Aaron Glenn that much. They are very banged up in the secondary (including former Seahawks CB D.J. Reed getting placed on injured reserve), and that seems like a problem versus Patrick Mahomes.
This has not been a great start to the season for the Chiefs, who stumbled to an 0-2 record for the first time ever under Mahomes, clawed their way back to .500, but took an L on Monday night against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Dare they fall to 2-4 and have even the slightest hint that they may not win the AFC West? Maybe the Chiefs will be fine because they’re the Chiefs, but every once in awhile a dynasty can have an off year.
