Bold prediction of the week: Lions pummel Patriots for Patricia’s first win The New England Patriots come to Ford Field Sunday night in Matt Patricia’s biggest game yet as Detroit Lions head coach Authentic Darius Slay Jersey , bringing us our bold prediction of the week. Part of a season-long series, it will be exactly as the title indicates: one hot take every week about what will unfold on Sunday. Bold prediction of the week: Lions beat Patriots by two possessions as Matt Patricia picks up his first (signature) winLet’s make one thing clear: Sunday night’s game will either be very good or very bad for the Lions; there will not be any in-between. For the former case, Matt Patricia has been advertised as genius rocket scientist. If anyone can figure out Bill Belichick, it will be him. On the other hand, things haven’t gone very well for the Lions the first two weeks, and with Patricia facing the man who probably knows him better than anyone else, things could go awry very quickly. Last week, Matthew Stafford turned the bold prediction of the week into a reality Womens Ricky Jean Francois Jersey , throwing for 3 TDs and no interceptions on the day. While he wasn’t always on target, he played clean football and that was a big step up from the Monday Night Meltdown against the New York Jets. For this week, that means it’s time to up the ante with the bold prediction of the week and that means we’re taking the former scenario for Patricia. With a home crowd that is always electric in prime time and Patricia knowing Belichick’s ways as well as anyone in this league, it’s a possibility (even if rare) that the Lions take over this game and dominate from the first snap to the last. If that were to happen, it would be a big sigh of relief for Lions fans after the mess that the Lions have been in Patricia’s first two weeks as head coach.It would also be Patricia’s first win, but more importantly, it would easily be a signature win—something Jim Caldwell seemed to lack in his entire tenure with the Lions. With the Patriots favored by seven points, for Patricia to take down Belichick and the Patriots on primetime TV would be a heck of a way to make a statement. It may not be likely http://www.detroitlionsteamonline.com/glover-quin-jersey , but that’s why it’s bold: Matt Patricia will lead the Lions to a statement win Sunday night. If anyone can, it’s him. How do you think Sunday’s game will unfold? Let us know in the comments. We’ve been doing the Song of the Game for a minute now, and I’ve got to wonder each time we put together these playlists as to just how jarring the attitude can go week-to-week once it’s all said and done. The Lions, for the past two seasons and change, have been incredibly inconsistent, unable to put together a standardized performance that we can easily quantify. The season is half done and we’re still going to be talking about how we don’t know what this team is.It’s fun, isn’t it? I know that you might think “fun” would be just to win all the time, and that’d be pretty neat http://www.detroitlionsteamonline.com/quandre-diggs-jersey , I suppose. But barring such a possibility, at least it’s a roller coaster and not a sand trap. Detroit Lions vs. Seattle Seahawks Song of the Game: “Special” by GarbageI thought you were specialI thought you should knowBut I’ve run out of patienceI’ve run out of commentsI’m tired of the violenceI couldn’t care lessBut you know what? I can’t fault a fan if they’re getting a little weary of the ups-and-downs. After a while some sort of picture is supposed to form of this team, and each week when you think the Lions have a run game or the ability to create pressure on a quarterback it just whispers and vanishes, like it didn’t even exist to begin with.Each time you think this team is special, they remind you, very clearly, they’re nothing of the sort.What a thrill.I’d say some fans have lost patience for sure if they’re talking about trading Matthew Stafford for a handful of picks. Thankfully, I wrote about this exact scenario not long ago.Anyway Womens Kenny Golladay Jersey , as the dek says, just be grateful I didn’t pick the Australian national anthem after what Michael Dickson did to the Lions. Oh, you’d have thought I’d pick Men at Work? That song is lame. You’re lame for thinking it. Get outta here.Song of the Game is a weekly column during the season. We’ll use a song to describe our feeling or the Lions’ performance from the previous game. At the end of the year, we’ll have a complete Spotify playlist telling the story of the Lions’ 2018 season. You can check out the 2017 playlist here, and our explanations for our choices here.
