After loss, look for changes

BALTIMORE — Look for some changes prior to Sunday’s home game against the Arizona Cardinals after the Lions were embarrassed 48-3 by the Ravens.

It was ugly on all counts. Coach Jim Schwartz knows it and plans to hold everyone accountable. It could mean some players will be out of jobs and starters could be benched.

“It’s not us, it’s not going to be us and there’s going to be some accountability for us,’’ the coach said.

The Ravens ran up 548 yards of offense while the Lions settled for 229 yards.

“That was embarrassing. I think we need to perform better than that. I’ve got to watch the tape, but that was embarrassing,’’ Lions cornerback Will James said.
