Lions Film Study: Terrion Arnold concerns might be pretty overblown

When I started covering the Detroit Lions 11 years ago, one of the things I really wanted to make sure I did in this business was be honest. You’re not always going to like the things I write, and that’s cool, but you’ll never be able to say that what I wrote wasn’t something I felt or believed at the time. But I can be wrong. A perfect example of that was on Monday when I wrote about what looked like a concerning trend for Terrion Arnold. Arnold’s been targeted a lot this season. 15 times to be exact. He’s allowed 10 catches to happen. At the time, it felt like cause for concern, and to a degree, it definitely still is. On Tuesday, I sat down and went over the film, and my thoughts coming away from it were, “Mike, you might have been a bit overblown with your concerns.” Let’s go over some clips together and talk about them.
