Colin Cowherd gave a somewhat confusing take about the Detroit Lions in the wake of their 42-29 victory over the previously undefeated Seattle Seahawks on Monday night. The two-touchdown win apparently did little to eliminate "red flags" everywhere for a team that is 3-1 with the lone blemish coming in a very weird loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who seem to be in the class of the NFC at this point.
Cowherd was concerned with the NFL-record 38 first downs the Seahawks generated. He looks around at all the good teams in the league and sees that they are playing defense while Monday night's effort dropped Detroit all the way to 10th out of 32 teams in terms of scoring defense.
