Lions Disappoint in Second Pre-Season Game
August 21, 2006 on 4:43 pm | In Uncategorized |The Lion’s took a regressive step on Friday evening. The same team that looked sharp and promising against Denver last week, looked equally as bumbling against the Browns.
Most concerning for me was the team’s inability to sustain drives. When they did sustain a drive, they often have had to settle for a field goal. This obvious is a cause for chagrin for Lion fans because it has been a nearly annual occurrence that the Lions struggle to score Touchdowns. None of the QB’s looked very good. In particular, with extended playing time, Jon Kitna didn’t show much sign of improvement from the previous week.
This isn’t doom and gloom, the Lion’s have a couple of pre-season games to redeem themselves. I am more concerned about their offense than I was a week ago that’s for certain. I hope that the defense will get some of it’s injured bodies back soon, too.
Does anybody besides me think having a trophy at stake during a pre-season game a little silly. Their is no further motivation to win the game because of a trophy. The coaches want to establish game-winning execution amongst their players, but winning any pre-season game and it’s accompanying trophy probably is of no concern.
