One bar per game this season, in week order. Bars above the line are wins and below are defeats, sized by margin. “v” is a home game and “@” an away game. Hover or tap a bar for the score. Bye weeks are left blank, so a gap in a run of form is visible rather than hidden.

Patriots vs Lions injury report and team news

This is a neutral-site game at FC Bayern Munich Stadium, with Detroit the nominal home team.

Detroit concede 261 passing yards a game, the most in the NFL.

Detroit rate 106.5 through the air, fourth in the league.

A passing offence in Munich against the league’s softest secondary

Detroit are 6-2 at +33 and it rests on the throw: 252 yards a game at 106.5, fourth in the NFL, with 3.1 touchdowns an afternoon.

Stopping anyone else throwing is another matter. The 261 passing yards a game Detroit concede is the highest figure in the league.

New England’s problem is giving it away. Maye threw three interceptions last week, and Detroit score too freely for that to survive a second week.
