This is a very winnable game for the Lions. But remember when I said there would be some losses that Lions fans don’t like? This is one of them.

I hate playing the “because it’s the Lions game” But there is just something about this Arizonia Cardinals team that always seems to stump the Lions. The Lions went into the desert n 2014 with the leagues number two defense to play against their former third string quarterback and couldn’t get the job done. The Lions lost the year before after David Akers missed a key field goal. In 2012 the Cardinals were starting Ryan Lindley. A quarterback who has still yet to throw for a touchdown in the NFL and they got blown out by the cardinals defense of all things.

I hate to say it. But i expect the Lions to lose to the Cardinals again in some flukey way. Even if they are at home. Loss (3-2)
