Tough toots if you disagree with my take that the Lions were distracted by the hype around their coordinators.
I never said the Lions were all injured in week one.
They lost starters to injury like a many teams throughout the season, and Branch got banged up during the game.
No excuses, they had more than enough good personnel to go 15-2. If you want to break their season into segments, pinpointing when injuries hit, have a jolly time. They went 15-2 so no excuses for injuries. That was a distracted team and Jayden Daniels ate them up.
