Lions vs. Jets Preview

This match-up is at 1:00 pm eastern time

You can view it on FOX or NFL RedZone

The Detroit Lions are currently in the first spot in the NFC North. After a big win against a division rival, the Green Bay Packers sending them into last place in the division, the Lions are feeling pretty good about themselves. They will need to step up their running if they want a chance at getting some yards against the Jets. After a loss to the Chicago Bears on Monday Night Football, the Jets are looking for a place to rebound and being ranked number two in total rushing yards so far this season, it will make it hard for the Lions to stop the Jets with their dominate running game.

Offense: 364.3 yards per game

  1. After Monday Nights performance, the Jets aren't looking too good. I'd have to say the Detroit Lions this week.
