Bill Dow | Special to the Detroit Free Press “I decided finally to pack the football.” So begins the first chapter of writer George Plimpton’s 1966 bestselling book “Paper Lion,” based upon his experience of “trying out” as the last-string quarterback at the Detroit Lions training camp 60 years ago this summer while on assignment for

It wasn’t exactly a fun watch for Detroit Lions fans as they hosted the Jacksonville Jaguars Saturday, but there was plenty to take away. The offense was ugly. The defense was flashy. The youngsters were promising. But if you wanted answers to position battles, you certainly didn’t get them. Here are your movers from Saturday’s…

So about that quarterback insurance policy for the Detroit Lions’ Super Bowl hopes — how are we feeling today, Detroit? Probably not great if you watched Teddy Bridgewater’s debut in Saturday’s 25-7 preseason loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars at Ford Field.

Detroit — Lions cornerback Steven Gilmore was in the back pocket of Jaguars wide receiver Tim Jones when quarterback C.J. Beathard uncorked a deep shot in the first quarter of the teams’ preseason game on Saturday afternoon. But excellent positioning isn’t always enough. A small technical lapse by the rookie corner was the difference in
Detroit — We assume the Lions will be led by their offense this season. We assume Jared Goff will direct an efficient attack, powered and protected by a staunch offensive line. We assume the Lions’ defense will be playing catch-up, as it usually is. Uh, we might want to be careful with these assumptions. Nothing
Dan Campbell doesn’t like to lose, even in the preseason. But even he acknowledged the most important thing to come from Saturday’s 25-7 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars at Ford Field were the evaluations the Detroit Lions got on players fighting for roster spots. “I felt like we found out about a few guys today,”
Detroit — If the deciding factor to winning an NFL roster spot is versatility, Lions wide receiver Chase Cota added another line to his resume in the team’s second preseason game by handling punt returner duties in a pinch. With regular return man Kalif Raymond held out of the game and logical replacement Maurice Alexander
Saturday was not very fun viewing for Lions fans, as the Detroit Lions looked sloppy and scattered for much of the day against the Jacksonville Jaguars. It ended as a 25-7 thrashing, with some positives on the defense and very little to love on offense. Here are your game ball candidates for the day:

Game 2 of the preseason was an ugly one as the Detroit Lions were defeated by the Jacksonville Jaguars, 25-7. Although preseason records don’t matter, you still want to see successful situations, players winning matchups, and reserves looking ready to step in if need be. Overall, we didn’t have many of those positives, but there…
