Detroit is 1-5 this year when allowing 110+ rushing yards, and 3-1 when surrendering less. Keeping the ball on the ground could also help Allen continue to settle in while recovering from a lingering elbow injury. The Lions may well present opportunities to air it out. Starting cornerback Jeff Okudah, for example, is set to sit out, pushing Jerry Jacobs and/or Amani Oruwariye into bigger roles. Diggs and Gabe Davis no doubt have the speed to score deep.
