ALLEN PARK -- The Detroit Lions are saying all the right things about not overlooking the struggling Tennessee Titans. Aaron Glenn, the team’s defensive coordinator, added context to those efforts, saying he can’t overlook a scrappy, hungry team because he remembers a time when the Lions were there, too.

“This is an opponent, in this league, records doesn’t matter. You can get your (expletive) kicked at any given time,” Glenn said. “We understand that, because we were in Tennessee’s shoes before. We were that team and we were out for blood every week. I know this team feels the same way.
