Halloween was a truly scary time for the Detroit Lions defense. The team had just lost a winnable game to the Miami Dolphins by allowing four touchdowns on five Miami possessions, all drives of which covered at least 67 yards.
Sitting in dead last in almost every conceivable defensive statistical metric, the Lions made the decision to try and end the horror by firing DBs coach and passing game coordinator Aubrey Pleasant. Many folks wanted coordinator Aaron Glenn sent out the door with Pleasant.
