[Bemular]

Shut-out for 59:24 seconds then give up a TD - that sucks

 

[NinerSickness]

I'm rooting for the Bears, but I actually hope the Lions get the onside kick just to make it interesting.

Thanks...maybe it'll help him get rescued by next week.

Jalen Rose said that if the Lions lost tonight he'd shave his head, goatee and eyebrows. Of course he'll probably not go through with it, but I thought I'd pass that along.

6 fumbles for Detroit tonight (3 lost). Two were by Pettigrew but they were right at the sideline and they went out of bounds.

wow, what was the context for such a bet?

Michigan roots?

I don't know how it went down or who he bet but he's originally from Michigan and is a big Lions fan.

That's a big fumble if it stands. Just when Detroit finally was getting something going. Stafford is averaging 2.9 yards/attempt so far. Cutler is averaging 4.3 yards/attempt.

My God those are hideous YPA numbers

Flacco was 4-15 for 32 yards and a INT at one point. Not sure if it got worse before it got better, as I know he had two INTs and a 0.3 ESPN QBR.

Man, I know Cutler can be hot and coooold, but I'm not looking forward to playing their defense. Best in rushing and I think they'll get to Smith, despite our o-line improvement.

Follow-up: Heard it on PTI, Flacco was 7 for 20, 50 yards, 2 INTs. (4.17 rating, one completion from 0 rating).

Bears are always a good defense but don't give them too much credit. The Lions turned the ball over 2x in the redzone, Stafford was off with his throws and Megatron is under the Madden curse.

But the Bears D is good, but our O should be able to handle them by that time.

It will happen, or I'll personally beat the sh*t out of Alex after the game.

Those are Takeaways, not Turnovers.

Bell was a dope for diving 5 yards away, extending his arms out thus exposing the football.

LeShoure, IIRC, needs to be stronger with his carries.

I guess I gave too much benefit of the doubt to Stafford? I saw him struggling due to pressures and not being able to get to Megatron, so I assumed it was the Bears D'. He's been having an off year (unless last year was an abberration, which I don't think), but it just looked like there was frustration - but that might have been their O'.

I then looked at what Smith has struggled with and that seems like it could be a long day. Smith struggles with a lot at different times and different games, but that's what makes days long for me. Cutler helps us though sometimes. With our defense, THAT Cutler, the INT machine, is more likely.
