That three-game stretch was frustrating but had many caveats. Detroit is a veteran team and probably the NFC favorite. We were basically missing our starting DL, which is one of the team's important strengths. The team laid a turd against the NYG, which is going to happen with a young team with new coaching (they looked flat coming off that MNF disappointment). And Thursday night games, particularly against division rivals, are just BS. And throughout it all, the team was missing Murphy who has become a true X-factor.
