Just imagine if my AAL Derrick Barnes’ performance wasn’t a fluke. Rather a sign of things to come. That would fill a huge need on this Lions defense. No idea what to expect with him going forward, but at least there’s hope now.

I think this next game could be a game for him to be tested, using him or someone as a spy and more zone coverage are probably going to be necessary against Fields. I think those are the areas he has to show he can succeed in to be a starting quality player.

Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers didn’t think the Lions defense did anything special during last Sunday’s game, but the NFL was more willing to give some credit to a Detroit defender.

Lions safety Kerby Joseph intercepted Rodgers twice during his team’s 15-9 home win. The first interception took place in the end zone and the second came just outside the end zone a couple of plays after the Packers had picked off a Jared Goff pass.

Joseph also recorded 10 tackles during the Lions win and the NFL named him the NFC’s defensive player of the week on Wednesday.

The interceptions were the first of the 2022 third-round pick’s career and the hope in Detroit is that it will be a sign of things to come for the rest of his rookie season.

Rookies of the week: Lions safety Kerby Joseph.

If you intercept Aaron Rodgers twice in the same game, you get an award.

The Lions rookie did just that in Sunday’s 15-9 upset of Green Bay. He also had 10 tackles and three passes defended.

Joseph, who had been close to breaking out all year, said it best on social media after the game: “𝑻𝑩𝑯 𝑰 𝑱𝑼𝑺𝑻 𝑩𝑬𝑬𝑵 𝑭𝑨𝑹𝑻𝑰𝑵𝑮, 𝒀𝑨𝑳𝑳 𝑨𝑰𝑵’𝑻 𝑺𝑬𝑬𝑵 💩 𝒀𝑬𝑻.”

Other finalists: Texans running back Dameon Pierce (139 rushing yards), Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier (10 carries, 99 rushing yards), Jets cornerback Sauce Gardner (one interception), Seahawks running back Ken Walker III (109 rushing yards, two touchdowns).
