It looks like the Lions are heading toward their second loss of the exhibition season.
Raiders backup quarterback Terrelle Pryor found wide receiver Juron Criner for their second score tonight, this time a 76-yard completion with 5:42 remaining in the game.
Criner beat Lions CB Jonte Green at the line of scrimmage on his post route across the middle, and when Green dove to deflect the ball, he gave Criner plenty of open space to run for the touchdown.
As I write this, Kellen Moore converted a fourth down play with a pass to Lance Long. With about 4 minutes remaining, the Lions face an uphill battle. This is the time for guys to show why they might deserve a roster spot.
