Coming off its best win of the season against the Baltimore Ravens, the Detroit Lions returned home to host the Cleveland Browns. Detroit wanted to extend its winning streak, but it wasn’t be easy, as the Browns were coming off their own big win over the Green Bay Packers, holding them to just 10 points. Detroit didn’t overlook Cleveland, despite comments made by Lions offensive coordinator John Morton earlier in the week.

We could be talking about a Lions loss if the defense can’t create turnovers and special teams doesn’t put up 13 points.
