The Detroit lions have done better in their new season in the NFL‚ now that they don’t have Barry sanders in their team. Without the man that holds the 2nd highest rushing record in the league‚ the team of Detroit that has always started their season bad‚ has started with a 2-0 which hasn’t happened in a long time‚ which is outstanding for the team rating.
