For the Detroit Lions their defensive performance throughout the first quarter of the season has been abysmal. Leaving them little chance to compete and win. The team sits at 1-3 and continues to be mystified on how to stop the run and get off the field. Meanwhile the offense and quarterback Matthew Stafford have regressed and haven’t been as consistent as one would’ve preferred. Making it abundantly clear Head coach Matt Patricia hasn’t been able to fix what troubles the Lions. Conventional wisdom would tell you his job should be on the line if the next 12 weeks continue to go south. However, the Ford family as done everything from a non- conventional way. Despite the fact, they gave this regime including general manager Bob Quinn the mandate they must be in contention this season. With all of this information in our bank of knowledge the question remains what is the future of the Lions?
