Kenny Golladay is making quite an impression on his fellow receivers in Detroit.The second-year wideout had four catches for 98 yards and a touchdown Sunday in the Lions‘ 31-23 victory over Green Bay. He also had a touchdown called back because of a penalty.Golladay has given Detroit another strong receiving threat along with Golden Tate and Marvin Jones — and at this point Womens Kerryon Johnson Jersey , it’s hard to tell who the defense should be most concerned with.“Having Kenny play the way he’s been playing since he came on the team has been huge. He’s opened it up for everybody,” Tate said. “Now we have a bunch of guys who can make plays.”The Lions drafted Golladay in the third round last year out of Northern Illinois, and he got off to quite a start, catching two touchdown passes in his first game .However, he missed five games with hamstring issues and finished the season with only 28 catches.Still, the potential was there, and this year the 6-foot-4 Golladay has nearly matched that reception total already. He has 27 catches for 428 yards. On the Lions, only Tate is ahead of him in those categories.“He’s killing it,” Jones said. “He’s doing a great job, and it’s fun to see.”Golladay has been productive this season, and he’s also been consistent. He caught seven passes for 114 yards in the season opener against the Jets and was one of the very few bright spots for Detroit in that loss. He’s had at least four receptions in all five games.The 5-foot-10 Tate is a dependable veteran who can excel after the catch. Both he and the 6-foot-2 Jones had more than 1,000 yards receiving last season. But it’s hard not to notice Golladay’s physical ability and wonder if Detroit’s passing game could be even better as he becomes a bigger part of it.“He’s obviously a big kid, physical kid, can run, wants to be a really good player,” quarterback Matthew Stafford said after the game against Green Bay.“Smart Michael Roberts Jersey , has dialogue with me. All of our guys do, really, which is great. What they’re seeing out there, what they think we can do — so, I’m just happy for our team to get a win. Obviously happy for Kenny. He had a good one.”Golladay’s 46-yard touchdown catch in the first quarter was nullified by an illegal use of hands penalty on a Detroit lineman. Later that period, Stafford and Golladay connected again for a 60-yard gain that set up a touchdown.Golladay caught a 5-yard scoring pass in the fourth quarter that put the Lions up 31-14.“Whenever my number is called, I’m just trying to make the play,” Golladay said. “So if they want to throw it to me five times or four times a game or nine times a game, I just want to make all the plays.”As he becomes more of an established target, Golladay may have to deal with more attention from opposing defenses. That’s a sign of respect, of course, and Lions coach Matt Patricia likes what he sees so far.“There’s a lot of different coverages that are coming his way, there’s a lot of different fronts, doubles, bracket-type situations that he’s running into. … The great part about it is just his competitiveness overall,” Patricia said.“Doing the details http://www.lionslockerroom.com/authentic-a_shawn-robinson-jersey , doing the little things — the blocking. Maybe some of the plays where he may draw a little bit more attention and free somebody else up. Those are big responsibilities in the offense and kind of help everything fit together for all the guys on the field.”NOTES: DE Ziggy Ansah, back with the Lions this season on the franchise tag, has missed the past four games with a shoulder injury. Patricia did not appreciate a question Monday about whether Ansah’s contract status might be affecting his return to the field. “The guy’s trying every single day to get back out there. So, that’s what it is. Don’t make it anything more than that,” Patricia said.___ The past three weeks haven't been the greatest for rookie quarterback Daniel Jones and the New York Giants.The team has lost three in a row. Jones and the offense have averaged 229 yards in those games, scored four touchdowns and turned the ball over eight times, with the sixth pick overall in the NFL draft throwing five interceptions and losing two fumbles.Jones lost two fumbles and threw an interception in Sunday's 27-21 loss to the Arizona Cardinals.Call it growing pains. It has happened to the best of them, Eli Manning included. He was 1-6 after taking over from Kurt Warner in his rookie season in 2004.The problem is it's tough to watch, especially for the fans. The Giants are 2-5, which is the 14th best record in the NFC. Their wins have been against Tampa Bay (2-4) and Washington (1-6) and four of their five losses haven been by at least 14 points.That's not encouraging in a season where co-owner John Mara said he wants the team to be more competitive.If there is a positive, Shurmur is sticking with Jones no matter what happens."I think Daniel is going to learn from everything that's going on," the second-year coach said of going back to Manning. "Just like all the other rookies and their playing, they're going to learn from the things that happen. But you have to learn and you have to win games, and I'm well aware of that. I'm totally well aware of that."Jones said his goal is to keep working. He knows he has to cut turnovers without losing his aggressiveness."That's the challenge, to keep making progress and to make progress throughout the game, throughout the situation Teez Tabor Jersey White , whatever it is, to continue to improve on everything," he said Monday.Shurmur also has to do better. Calling a draw on third-and-18 from his own 30 with 3:11 to play is questionable. After seeing Saquon Barkley gain 3 yards, he went for it on fourth-and-15. Jones was sacked, lost a fumble and the Cardinals got their final three points.Not smart.WHAT'S WORKINGHard to say. The punt block team got a block from Michael Thomas and a fumble recovery for a touchdown on the play from Eli Penny. It was one of the few bright spots. The defense settled down after give up 17 points on the opening three Arizona series.WHAT NEEDS HELPThe offensive line broke down at the end of the game when the Cardinals knew Jones was going to throw. All the sacks were not the line's fault. Jones has to get rid of the ball quicker and the receivers have to get open sooner. Still, the line was not good. The run defense was bad with Cards' backup Chase Edmonds rushing for 126 yards and three TDs, career bests.STOCK UPGolden Tate. There is no doubt he had alligator arms on the first pass Jones threw to him. It was in traffic and he would have taken hits, probably from two defenders. He finished with six catches for 80 yards. Every catch went for a first down, including two on third down and one on fourth."I didn't come here to lose," Tate said. "I came here to help get things turned around and help us win a bunch of games. I still believe that we can do that, we just need to be a little bit better."STOCK DOWNIt would be easy to say the offensive line. Let's settle for PK Aldrick Rosas. He made the Pro Bowl last season, making 32 of 33 field goal attempts. He is 4 of 6 on field goal attempts this season, missing a 37-yarder in the third quarter with the Giants down 10. With the offense struggling, he needs to be better.INJUREDLinebacker Lorenzo Carter had an ankle injury. He said Monday he was cleated and expects to be ready for the Lions. WR Sterling Shepard and CB Corey Ballentine remain in concussion protocol. Shurmur said Barkley was sore after first game in three weeks.KEY NUMBERS8 and 3 — Times Jones was sacked. Jones' turnovers. Can't happen if the Giants hope to win.NEXT STEPSThe offense and defense have to show up from the outset against the Lions. For most of the season, one of the units has been AWOL at the start. The Giants are not good enough to overcame that.
