Lions still lack offensive punch despite new depth

DETROIT. Lions head coach Harry Gilmer faces a stubborn lack of scoring fire as he reshapes the backfield after two top players left. Milt Plum is under scrutiny at quarterback while receivers Gibbons Kramer Cogdill Studstill threaten big gains if the line protects and Plum connects. The defense remains strong with Brown and Karras anchoring the line and Lucci replacing Schmidt as the expected middle linebacker. The secondary shows vulnerability to long passes but Gilmer aims to fix it before the NFL opener.
