The Detroit Lions’ injury situation isn’t great, but it could definitely be worse. That said, they'll be without All-Pro center Frank Ragnow for Monday's game against Seattle.
The thing with the Baltimore game that initially scared me was how big Baltimore (under McDonald) was with simulated pressure and not knowing where the blitz was coming from that seemingly wrecked the Lions last year. Then if I remember correctly, it seems like the Vikings under Flores as DC seem to run a lot of simulated pressure too and the Lions did OK against them. Anyways, that's my 2 cents on anyone who is worried about the Baltimore game last year. And like the coaches said, different team, different players.
Fan of these posts and hope they stick.

Love the detailed comment from Montgomery, new stat for the year - how many teeth showing runs
