Getting a result on Sunday will do the Lions a lot of good even they have to take a long flight to the West Coast within a very short week to face the 49ers. The Lions suffered a huge defeat under debutant head coach, M. Patricia. He will have to rally his team to shun the discordant symphony they showcased vs the Jets.
