LIONS 32 EAGLES 16 BOX SCORE

With the offense struggling for much of the first half, the Lions needed their defense to step up. And step up they did.

The Lions limited the Eagles to just 247 total yards of offense, and forced 2 Jalen Hurts interceptions, one of which was returned for a touchdown.

Detroit jumped out to a 6-0 lead early in the 2nd quarter, on a pair of Austin Seibert field goals. The Eagles would take a 7-6 lead with 7:26 left in the half, on a Miles Sanders 6 yard run. But the Lions drove down the field on the ensuing drive, and capped it off with a D'Andre Swift 4 yard touchdown run for a 13-7 lead with 1:34 left in the half. The defense then forced a 3 and out to get the ball back, and Jared Goff drove them down the field before Seibert connected again, this time from 29 yards out, to put Detroit up 16-7.

Late in the 3rd Quarter, cornerback Amani Oruwariye jumped a route, picked off a Jalen Hurts pass, and took it 47 yards to the house for a 22-7 lead, igniting the Ford Field crowd. The Eagles would get to within 12 on a Jake Elliott 43 yard field goal.

Seibert would connect on his 4th field goal of the game with 4:40 remaining, to put the Lions up 25-10. On the ensuing drive, Aiden Hutcinson pressured Hurts, forcing an errant throw right to safety DeShon Elliott, who picked it off. The Lions would put the game away with a 1 yard touchdown run by Jamaal Williams, making it 32-10. The Eagles would get a late touchdown by Quez Watkins, on a 3 yard pass from Hurts.

Offensively, Jared Goff managed the game well. He wasn't spectacular, going 21-31 for 221 yards. He didn't make any mistakes though. The Lions gained 145 yards on the ground, with D'Andre Swift accounting for 99 yards on 21 carris. T.J. Hockenson led the way with 73 receiving yards.

Jalen Hurts completed 27 of 38 passes for 244 yards, with a touchdown and 2 interceptions. Though the Lions got just 2 sacks, they pressured him all game long. Aiden Hutchinson recorded a sack, and two tackles for loss in his first NFL game.

The Lions remain home next week, as they host the Washington Commanders. The Commanders beat the Jaguars in week 1 28-23. Carson Wentz threw 4 touchdown passes in his Washington debut.

Lions Season Preview
Posted on August 15, 2022 at 08:46 PM.
DETROIT LIONS 2022 SEASON PREVIEW


The 2022 NFL season is finally upon us. Even though the Lions are coming off of a 3-13-1 2021 season, there is a renewed sense of optimism in the Motor City. The Lions finished the 2021 season strong, winning 3 of their final 6 games, including upset victories over the playoff bound Arizona Cardinals, and Green Bay Packers. The Lions had an outstanding draft, grabbing Aiden Hutchinson with the 2nd overall pick, then trading up with the Minnesota Vikings to nab Wide Receiver Jameson Williams. They will also get Frank Ragnow back. Ragnow missed most of the 2021 season due to an injury.

The offense appears to be much improved. Kyle Dutcher was named the offensive coordinator. He had a lot of success in the college ranks. His goal is for the Lions offense to control the clock on the ground, while also stretching the field with the passing game.

QB Jared Goff played well down the stretch last season. Goff threw for 3245 yards and 19 touchdowns, with just 8 interceptions. But, this is a make or break year for him. Goff needs to show the Lions that he is the QB that can lead them back to contention.

D'Andre Swift is once again healthy, and will get the majority of the carries on the ground. Swift rushed for 617 yards on 151 carries, with 5 TDs last season. When healthy, he is a dynamic part of the offense, as he caught 62 passes for 452 yards as well. Jamaal Williams will also get a lot of carries. Williams is a hard nosed runner, not afraid to get physical. he had 601 yards on 153 carries last season. Free agent Justin Jackson was brought in from the Chargers to provide depth at the position. Craig Reynolds also returns.

The Lions brought in free agent wide receiver D.J. Chark, to help stretch the field. He joins the returning Amon-Ra St. Brown, who had 90 catches last season, and excelled in the second half, Josh Reynolds, (29 catches 396 yards) and Kalif Raymond (48 catches, 576 yards). Jameson Williams is still recovering from a torn ACL in the National Championship game in January, but he is on the roster to open the season. The Lions feel he will likely return before the 4th game of the season, so they kept him on the active roster. Tight end T.J. Hockenson might be the teams best player. If he can stay healthy, he should put up a huge year.


The strength of the offense should be the offensive line. Frank Ragnow is healthy again. When he is healthy, he has been one of the best centers in the NFL. Taylor Decker, Jonah Jackson, Penei Sewell, and Halapoulivaati Vaitai make up a solid line.

While the offense should be good, there are a lot of question marks on the defensive side of the ball. The Lions drafted Aiden Hutchinson with the second overall pick, and he appeared to be just as good as advertised in the preseason. They will also benefit from the return of Romeo Okwara. The Lions plan to employ more 4 linemen sets this season, so both should get the majority of their reps on the line, though both could also line up at an edge position as well. Michael Brockers, Alim McNeill, and Leo Onwuzurike will man the interior of the DL.

Linebacker is a huge question mark. Alex Anzalone returns in the middle. He is a steady, but not spectacular player. The Lions are very high on 6th round pick Malcolm Rodriguez, and he will get a lot of playing time in the middle. Derrick Barnes, who had 86 tackles as a rookie last year, will also see a lot of playing time. This group has the potential to be very good, but there will surely be some struggles along the way.

The Secondary is kind of a mess. Amani Oruwariye had 6 interceptions, and played extremely well last season, and could be on the verge of a breakout. But on the other side, is former 3rd overall pick Jeff Okudah. Okudah struggled mightily as a rookie, then went down early last season to an injury. Okudah the time is now for Okudah to show what it was that made him the 3rd overall pick. The Lions brought in DeShon Elliot from the Ravens, and he will surely help at the safety position. The other safety will be Tracy Walker. The secondary should be improved from last year, but will it be enough to keep the Lions in games enough that their offense can win them.

Players absolutely love playing for Dan Campbell. It is a marked difference from the previous regime. It remains to be seen if this is the year that the Lions can get back into the playoffs, but there is definitely momentum.

There hasn't been this much optimism in Detroit surrounding the Lions in a long long time.

BOX SCORE

The Detroit Tigers are once again World Series Champions. With a 6-3 victory over the Mets in Game 4, the Tigers clinched a sweep, and their first World Series Championship since 1984.

It wasn't easy though. The Mets elected to start Max Scherzer on 3 days rest, with Jacob deGrom ready in the bullpen if needed. The Tigers got a run in the first, on a 2 out RBI single by Miguel Cabrera. The Mets tied the game in the bottom of the 2nd, on a Mark Canha solo home run to left.

The Tigers scored three times in the 3rd, to take a 4-1 lead. Juan Soto singled to right, scoring Javier Baez, and then Spencer Torkelson followed with a 2 run home run to dead center field, scoring Soto.

The Mets got one back in the bottom of the 3rd, on a sac fly by Starling Marte. They got another single run in the 5th, on a J.D. Davis solo home run, his 4th of the post season. That cut the lead to 4-3.

Kyle Dutcher homered in the 7th, to give the Tigers a 2 run lead. Miguel Cabrera added another RBI single in the 8th, for a 3 run lead. Lucas Sims, and Gregory Soto combined to allow just 1 hit in the final 3 innings, to seal the win. Soto earned his 7th save of the post season. Neither Sims nor Soto were scored upon in the post season.

Eduardo Rodriguez started, and pitched 6 innings, allowing 3 earned runs on 6 hits, to get the win.

The Tigers now head into the off season, with few unsigned players. Michael Pineda, and Wily Peralta are unsigned, and neither are expected to be resigned.

The only real question mark will be Miguel Cabrera. Cabrera hinted at the beginning of the post season that he would consider retiring if the Tigers won the World Series. Cabrera, who has a history of bad knees, seemingly broke down towards the end of the regular season, though he did hit .391 with 12 RBI in the post season. If he would choose to retire, it could open the door for the Tigers to possibly make a big splash in Free Agency. If he returns, the Tigers aren't expected to make too many changes.

BOX SCORE

Eric Haase broke a 2-2 tie in the bottom of the 8th inning with a pinch hit solo home run off Mets reliever Joey Lucchesi, propelling the Detroit TIgers to a 3-2 win in game 1 of the 2022 World Series.

The Tigers and Mets combined for just 4 hits each, as Max Scherzer and Casey Mize dueled each other. Scherzer lasted 7 innings, allowing just 2 runs on 3 hits, with 3 strikeouts. Mize meanwhile went 8, allowing just 2 runs on 4 hits, striking out 7, earning the win. Gregory Soto pitched a perfect 9th inning for his 5th save of the post season.

Kyle Dutcher opened the scoring with a leadoff home run to left in the bottom of the first. The Mets scored twice in the top of the 5th, on an RBI double by Mark Canha, and a sac fly by J.D. Davis. But the Tigers tied it up at 2 in the bottom of the 5th on an Austin Meadows home run to right.

Neither team could muster anything for the next two innings. Joey Lucchesi replaced Scherzer to start the bottom of the 8th. Eric Haase who destroyed left handed pitching during the regular season, pinch hit for Meadows. Haase hit a bal to left that just carried over the fence, for a 3-2 Tiger lead. The Mets went 1-2-3 in the 9th.

The win is the Tigers first World Series win since Game 2 of the 2006 World Series. The Tigers did play in the World Series in 2012, but were swept by the San Francisco Giants.

Game 2 will be Friday Night at Comerica Park. Tarik Skubal pitches for the Tigers. Jacob deGrom will pitch for the Mets. Neither have lost yet this post season. Game time is 7:05PM

BOX SCORE

For the first time since 2012, the Detroit Tigers are headed back to the World Series. The Tigers defeated the New York Yankees 7-1 Thursday night in game 5, to win the American League Pennant 4 games to 1.

Casey Mize, and Gerrit Cole matched each other pitch for pitch through 7 innings, neither allowing a run. Cole ran into trouble in the top of the 8th, however. With one out, Javier Baez hit a routine ground ball to second. However the throw from second baseman D.J. LeMahieu sailed over the head of first basemen Anthony Rizzo, and Baez was safe at first. Juan Soto then walked, putting runners at first and second. Spencer Torkelson drove home Baez on a single to left, 1-0 Detroit. Miguel Cabrera singled, loading the bases. Austin Meadows hit a 2 run single down the first base line, scoring Soto and Torkelson, for a 3-0 Tiger lead. Jonathan Schoop singled, to re-load the bases. Jeimer Candelario followed with a double to center, scoring Cabrera, Meadows, and Schoop, putting the Tigers up 6-0. Kyle Dutcher would add a single, plating Candelario, and the Tigers led 7-0.

The Yankees would get a run in the bottom of the 8th, on a Kiner-Falefa RBi single, but that would be all they could muster. Michael Fulmer pitched a scoreless 9th to seal the win.

Casey Mize went 8 innings, allowing just 4 hits, 1 earned run, and struck out 15. Cole went 7.1 innings, allowing 1 unearned run, on 4 hits, with 5 strikeouts and 3 walks.

The Tigers now await the winner of the National League Championship Series. The Mets currently lead the series 3 games to 2. That series will continue Friday night in New York, with Chris Bassitt opposing Walker Buehler. Game 7 will be Saturday, if necessary. Jacob deGrom would face Julio Urias if that game is needed.

The World Series is slated to begin on Wednesday, October 26, in Detroit. The Tigers will have 5 days off before Game 1, allowing Manager A.J. Hinch to set up his pitching rotation however he sees fit. It is expected that either Casey Mize, or Tarik Skubal will start Game 1.
