Week 15 – at New York Giants

With the Vikings moving back indoors and games at the Packers and Bears coming early in the season, the week 15 game at MetLife Stadium against the Giants is the only potential poor weather game the Lions face.

I don’t know how much better the Giants will be this season compared to last but there is something about the Lions going to New York in mid December that really worries me.

The Lions can talk about wanting to be an indoor team with an outdoor mentality but that doesn’t do anything to prepare a team for the swirling winds that can impact a game at MetLife.

Prediction: Lions lose

Lions’ record: 8-6

Next: Week 16 at Cowboys
