Watch as John Maakaron describes how the Lions can take advantage of the Giants in today's matchup

Kerryon Johnson is not available to help the Lions running game. 

Since being placed on injured reserve earlier this week, the Lions are now forced to utilize running back by committee this week at home against the Giants.

Will this approach work?

The Lions have Matthew Stafford, a widely respected quarterback. It is games like these Stafford should be called upon to lift his team. 

Watch as John Maakaron discusses that the Lions may take a more pass-heavy approach in order to earn the victory against the Giants.
