German_Force » Jets-Lions: 5 Questions with Pride of Detroit

With the Jets set to take on the Lions tonight Color Rush Jachai Polite Jersey , I got the chance to ask Chris Perfett of Pride of Detroit a few questions on the team.1. The Lions have entered a period of mediocrity. They own a nearly even 57-55 record over the past 7 seasons, with 3 playoff appearances but no playoff wins. How have the Lions attempted to take that next step from a Wild Card team to a Super Bowl contender?2. Matt Stafford’s career progression has been very interesting to watch. Once a high-risk gunslinger who was throwing 15+ interceptions a season, Stafford has gradually lowered his interception totals while maintaining his explosiveness and also increasing his completion percentage. He is now a consistent top-ten quarterback statistically.How has Stafford progressed into the quarterback he is today - and how do Lions fans think he ranks among the top quarterbacks in the league?3. The Lions struggled in most areas defensively last season Youth Jachai Polite Jersey , but did make up for it one very important area - takeaways, with their total of 32 ranking 3rd in the league. Can the Lions maintain that level of defensive playmaking, and how have they worked to address other areas of their defense?4. The run game has long been an issue for the Lions. They placed last in total rushing last season and 2 of the last 3 - and haven’t ranked in the top half of the league in total rush yards. Has the issue been running back talent Womens Jachai Polite Jersey , offensive line play, or both? How has the team worked to improve this phase of the offense?5. Where do the Lions stack up in this monstrous NFC? With a myriad of title contenders at the top of the conference, can the Lions sneak into a Wild Card spot like they have in recent seasons? Could they potentially provide a shock and compete for the NFC North title? Montrel Meander is the first player Joe Douglas has brought to the Jets.

The team has claimed the conerback off waivers from the Oakland Raiders.This is probably more of a player who will be competing for a roster spot in training camp than it is a starting caliber player who could help the team fill its need at the position.One might assume Gregg Williams had something to do with this waiver claim since Meander spent that time on the Browns practice squad under Williams last season. While he might not be in the mix to start, there certainly will be an opportunity to make the team in a wide open roster competition at the position.
