Detroit is the only team without a bad loss. San Francisco’s loss today wasn’t terrible since the Browns are really strong on defense, but the vaunted SF defense couldn’t stop PJ Walker?
This was an impressive win. The defense just stifled the Bucs all day.
And the two undefeated NFC teams both fell today so Detroit is now running with them at 5-1. Great day for Detroit football.
McVay had a pretty good PR narrative going for himself. Then when he melted down with Goff and again with the post-Super Bowl crash the media started to recognize he is an egomaniac had poisoned relationships with many of his coaches and players.
According to this article the play came from David Blough who ran it at Purdue.
Take that Blough haters!

Tampa Bay with just 20 explosive plays (through four games). Detroit is averaging almost double the number of explosive plays per game. Baker will have to take risks to keep up with Detroit’s offense.
(Miami is way out ahead of the pack.)
Sure Tampa Bay is 3-1 but they’ve beaten a terrible team in Chicago, two mediocre teams in Minnesota and NO, and lost to the Iggles. Hats off to them, they haven’t beaten themselves. But they also haven’t beaten anybody good.
