While Slay has been Detroit's best defender the past few years, making three Pro Bowls and being named a first team All-Pro selection, he doesn't get the credit he might deserve with the Lions struggles during his tenure in Detroit.
The Philadelphia Eagles once again had a chance to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat and failed losing at home to the Detroit Lions 27-24. Their two losses this season have come by a combined total of just seven points.
