NFL's biggest surprises: Minshew Mania takes over (Nate Davis - Biggest surprise … hmmm. Gardner Minshew? Kyle Allen? Antonio Brown bounced out of the league after exiting his third team in six months and being relegated to homework? As is typically the case, the NFL is chock-full of surprises. But for my money, the craziest revelation has to be the Detroit Lions, who figured to be a tough out on game days but – in my opinion – also appeared thoroughly outclassed by their NFC North brethren at the season’s outset. (And opening their campaign with a come-from-ahead tie in Arizona was hardly encouraging.) But these are no Ford Family Frauds. The Lions have been as tough as any club the past three weeks, upsetting the Chargers and Eagles before taking the undefeated Chiefs to the wire in a slugfest that could have gone either way – literally if that dubious 100-yard fumble return by Kansas City’s Bashaud Breeland had been disallowed. The Leos aren’t stellar in any particular area – frankly, the defense has been disappointing overall thus far – but they’re making a lot of clutch plays at key moments, something quarterback Matthew Stafford has done a fair amount of over the years without getting requisite credit. Detroit faces the Packers and Vikings on the other side of its Week 5 bye, so we’ll find out quickly if their hot start is miraculously legitimate or just another Motown mirage. Tom Schad - The Detroit Lions. After losing 10 games a year ago (by an average of 12 points, no less), the Lions have been competitive in every game they've played this season. They've beaten both the Chargers and Eagles -- who some prognosticators picked to reach the Super Bowl -- and gave the Chiefs a run for their money last week, too. Sure, the Lions haven't played another NFC North team yet, and they'll probably come crashing down to Earth at some point. But they've looked shockingly good through the first four weeks.): https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/2019/10/04/gardner-minshew-among-biggest-surprises-nfl-season-so-far/3860413002/
