Detroit vs. Baltimore Monday: Will History Repeat or Will the Underdog Rise?
Also, Lions QB Jared Goff isn’t athletic enough to handle this defense. The Ravens sacked him five times two years ago, and Goff adds nothing to Detroit’s rushing attack. If Baltimore can force a bunch of third-and-longs, Goff will be a sitting duck back there.Â
The Lions have been weak in the trenches and bad in high-leverage situations. They are 31st in pass-rush win rate and 29th in run-stopping win rate through the first two weeks, per ESPN. Detroit’s defense is 30th in third-down conversion rate allowed and 26th in red-zone scoring allowed. That’s bad news, considering the Ravens like to establish the run and convert in high-leverage spots.Â
