Lions Week 12 Player of the Game: Bo Scarbough

The Detroit Lions had yet another disappointing loss in Week 12, this time to a now 2-9 Washington team.

The Lions had errors in all three phases of the game, and after a very quiet start offensively for the Lions, the second half started and running back Bo Scarbrough emerged.

Scarbrough carried the ball 18 times for 98 yards — just can’t seem to break that 100-yard mark — averaging 5.4-yards per carry, including a long of 30-yards. In a game that needed an offensive spark from any Lions player, Scarbrough appeared to be the only one who answered the call.

Simply put:

Scarbrough has been a workhorse on the ground and while he hasn’t been lighting the world on fire, he’s been steady and finds himself among rare company in Lions history.

In a game where positives were hard to come by, Scarbrough was the easy choice for Lions Wire’s Week 12, Player of The Game.
