This team has survived almost everything. They recovered from a Goff-ian slump in the middle of a game; have recovered from season injury; they recovered from the crippling weight of hype and now they recovered after their second best defensive player was thrown out of a game because the NFL likes to look like a good babysitter when the parents are watching . They won in countless ways. They know who they are from a deeply personal place and are not afraid to be those people. It’s pretty fun to watch it all happen.

The Lions lead the league in scoring (32.25) and rank fifth in scoring defense (18.5). Over the last six games, Detroit has more touchdowns (28) than incompletions (24).

There is no replacement for injured DE Aidan Hutchinson. But will the NFC leaders add someone, perhaps DE Za’Darius Smith, as a temporary patch before the deadline? However, it may not matter much given how well this multi-faceted offense is clicking. QB Jared Goff and WR Amon-Ra St. The Browns haven’t had a missed connection since Week 3, connecting on 30 consecutive targets — tied for the longest streak by any drive since 2016.
