I think that the bac,field needs a total overhaul. write off Best & LeShore, and then go with Stephon Green, J. Bell, K. Williams & also the posibility of K. Smith. Green is also on Special teams, so that could be a 1 of the reasons to hold onto him. To many teams have been having injury problems with RB's getting hurt, so keep the players that are healthy, & showing promise, & don't give them to another team that the one that the LIONS didn't keep, & went to another team and runs so good that his ability @RB, turns around and bites them in the ---, & keeps them out of the playoffs.
PLAYERS:
Stefan Logan,
Jim Schwartz,
Matthew Stafford,
Jahvid Best
TEAMS: Detroit Lions, Baltimore Ravens
TEAMS: Detroit Lions, Baltimore Ravens
Stefan Logan needed crutches to get to the locker room after Fridays 27-12 preseason win over the Baltimore Ravens, but Detroit Lions coach Jim Schwartz said initial X-rays on his return mans right ankle came back negative. Well see, Schwartz said. It didnt look great on film according to our doctors, but Logans a pretty tough guy. Well just see how that comes out. Logan was injured when he planted his right leg in the ground before accepting a handoff on the Lions second touchdown drive midway through the second quarter. He ran into quarterback Matthew Stafford and crumbled to the ground in pain, but walked off the field under his own power. While Logan is coming off a down year as a return man, hes taken on a bigger role in the Lions offense this year with running back Jahvid Best out indefinitely with concussion problems.
