Detroit lIons win, lose Stefan Logan to ankle injury

Lions defeat the Ravens 27-12 in Baltimore.

Here are the scenes

The Lions passing game was in high gear
Titus with a 24 yard TD

John Wendling played well at Safety
4 tackles and a sack

Joique Bell rushed 5 times for 35 yards
Lost a fumble

Logan hurt an ankle in a collison with Stafford

4th TE Nathan Overbay was also injured

I watched the game in the Man Cave

The Bad:

Special Teams were Stan Kwan like. 2 long kick returns and a botched onside kick.

Amari Spievey is bad. His spot on the roster should be in question.

Injuries to Travis Lewis, Stefan Logan, Nathan Overbay hurt depth.

Detroit Lions claim C/G Bill Nagy and place CB Drew Coleman on IR

Lions place CB Drew Coleman on a injured reserve with a concussion. This move ends his season. I believe he suffered the injury when Sean Jones wiped out a Brown receiver on the far sideline. Coleman stayed in the game but trainers were following him around on the sideline after the series. He did not return to the field. He finished with 4 tackles and a concussion.

I thought Coleman was a lock for the 53 man roster and a possible starter. This injury hurts the Lions depth in the secondary.

Here is a tribute:



Coleman played 16 games for the Jags in 2011.
46 tackles 2 ints.

Coleman played 67 games for the Jets
118 tackles and 2 ints

Coleman from TCU
started 15 games had 39 tackles and 5 picks

Get better Drew

He has three years left on his rookie contract.

Here is a tribute:

Nagy started 4 games for the Cowboys in 2011.
