The Lions first team offense scored 3 times yesterday and the Giants first team offense did not score yesterday .
I also thought the Lions ran pretty well against our first team defense.
If that's true, it's not overlooked per se; everyone expects the D to take some time to gel, and the young guys to settle in. And be the strength of the team. With normal injury luck the D will be solid to very good. The O - and OL in particular -- is the worry. Hence the excitement over its performance yesterday.
Daboll said TE Chris Manhertz, who left late in yesterday’s practice, is fine. WR Dennis Houston (hand) won’t practice today. CB Christian Holmes, who they claimed yesterday, has to get something “looked at,” per Daboll.
No changes to the rest of the injury report. Eighth straight practice C John Michael Schmitz (shoulder) will miss.
Not surprisingly, Daboll and Dan Campbell were fine with the “spirited” nature of yesterday’s practice. They spoke after and said they just want to see some of the “extra” stuff get cleaned up so practice doesn’t get interrupted as much as yesterday.

Really Giants are doing these with a team like the Lions and a coach like Campbell.
Thats the most concerning thing. Now we have to do this dumb cross training crap.
You do realize that all teams have OL play multiple positions. You only dress 8 on game day.
What is different this year is Ezeudu isn't learning three positions(as were others). The IOL is staying IOL. Which is fine.
And it is not a crazy as last year, either.
Anybody that thought JMS was going to join this melee is nuts. They want that shoulder healed and not lingering.

Exactly. People are conflating the root of last years shit show. The issue was inexperienced and in many cases marginally talented players -- yet to prove they can play in the NFL at any position -- practicing at multiple spots.

Lions coach Dan Campbell said QB Jared Goff and many of the players the Lions are going to “count on” won’t play in the preseason opener on Thursday. Daboll wouldn’t reveal his plans but hard to imagine any established starters playing after two physical joint practices.
Pray for injury free day.
(1) Coming off a terrible season vs complacency from an unexpected playoff appearance?
(2) Coach Brian Daboll changed his mental approach to managing the team?
(3) Uber-talented imports like Brian Burns & Malik Nabers have everyone jazzed?
(4) All of the above?
(5) Something else?
Today should be a tougher test
Today should be a tougher test
Of course today will be a tougher test after yesterday and I expect everyone knows that. Doubt yesterday had anything do with jet lag. Lol
Today should be a tougher test
I'm sure that a bunch of 20 somethings really suffered on what was surely a chartered flight.
I also thought the Lions ran pretty well against our first team defense.

I think you may be wrong on the Giants. As far as the Lions, yes blown coverages with 3 of 4 new starting DBs will kill you.
Anyway, none of the reports seemed to think the Lions did that well yesterday.
I also thought the Lions ran pretty well against our first team defense.
Lions playing in the same defense.. Giants learning new defense with at least 2 new starters in the secondary.. Thats why you practice..
From the clips I saw and the reports the Giants were able to get deep on the Lions multiple times
Keep working.. Keep learning.. Thats what these practices are for.
Not this morning, for thursday, maybe, but there might be a break thursday in between storms
The fact our offense executed reasonably well is great too, but that deserves the “it’s practice, and a the Lions didn’t game plan on defense” caveat

the Front 7 gave arguably the best OL in the NFL trouble.
Blown coverage is better than not being able to cover

Oh. Wow. This wouldn’t be the “Hard Truth” we’ve all been waiting for. Gee. Thanks.

Not to mention the D is learning an entirely new defense.
The play of the OL is the most encouraging sign from yesterday. No doubt the Lions will be very fired up today.
