Thats my guess too.
Thankfully anderson is out

And the rest of that texans front 7 is either injured or coming off injury. I can’t imagine them being to successful in the pass rush. But the run stopping is what scares me

Yep that gets my vote… Use tight ends and RB’s to help Sorsdal in pass pro. Skipper can stay in the jumbo package he’s familiar with.

Sewell has played a ton of left tackle in college and 10 starts with the Lions. That’s easy for him to move over. He’s probably played more left tackle than right in his life.

Sewell has to get the LT spot, otherwise Goff may get dead

That literally is my lions game plan every week… Haha ■■■■ the opponent you can’t stop this punch in the face. And then Goff is a serial killer on play action

Whichever side Danielle Hunter normally plays on is the side Sewell should play on.

No way Hunter lines up over Sewell often… Unless the Texans are retarded. Move Hunter around presnap. Find matchups where Sewell aint. It’s football 101.

The Lions though can counter and use tight ends to Hunter’s side…tight ends can motion to which ever side they want presnap.

I know some DEs typically line up on certain sides of the LOS, so I didn’t know if Hunter was one of those players.

They were probably planning at that anyway because of the light Houston DL. If Anderson is out as expected, missing Decker is just bad, not catastrophic.

Anderson is already ruled OUT.

Oh you’re good young man…there have been a few one sided ends in the past… But in modern nfl they are moving all over the front to find mismatches.

Zadarius Smith for example is a beast rushing at Defensive tackle vs guards on passing downs. Yes he’s a end…but he’s got a ton of sacks on the interior in his career vs slow footed guards.

If Zadarius plays Sunday.

Im fully expecting a nascar package on a3rd and long.

Pascal, Smith, Mcneil, Levi.

Mcneil and smith up the middle vs the worst rated IOL in the nfl??? Yes please

nailed it the league GIF by hero0fwar

I mean, Decker has been rough the last couple games. This explains it, but a backup wouldn’t look as bad compared to the last 2 games.
