Their defense, IMO, is good and hopefully will be a good test to see how our new toys fare against a Patriots-style defense, as well as how much Pat has learned about how to decipher it, but they won't be able to stop our offense from scoring 34 points. I think they'll put a damper on our run game to a degree, but they don't have anyone that can do much about DR, Hardman, and Sammy. Much less do anything about Kelce.

And the Lions offense will be a bigger test for our defense than anything we've faced this season. Mostly because of Stafford. Stafford is a solid QB with a live arm and some ability to scramble left in him. And he's a traditional QB; he's going to set up his line according to what he sees pre-snap, go through his reads and throw the ball to open receivers, mostly on target. He's not going to give us the game through inexperience or lack of intelligence. He might throw an errant pass; it's just in his nature sometimes.

Their RBs and WRs don't look that scary, but their TE group are all decent receivers. Should be a good test of our LBs/safeties coverage and tackling skills. They should be busy.

At the end though, the Lions don't score a lot, just 21 points a game. They'd have to play at a higher level offensively to have a chance of beating the Chiefs. At least two scores better.
