For GUYSwanting 100 yards and 6-7 catches a game??? Not going to happen with any 3rd option in Detroit. I hated the pick and position of the pick.

Ding, ding, ding. We have a winner. This is exactly what I've been saying.

I love seeing Lombardi using pass plays with Collins in there.

I have been calling for this for weeks. Its about time.

That is that blueprint MikeD and Thunder spoke of I do believe.

So much for the blueprint. Lasted a little over a quarter and Austin shut it down.

Yes Mike, but this also goes for all the receivers you bring up. Main reason I wanted defense defense defense. I unlike you am not right always, but I knew I loved the Tate signing and said so from the beginning.

Watkins and Evans were my options for anothwer receiver if one one was taken. Even they would struggle for targets. Would have been nice during CJ's absence, but not much better when Tate and CJ have proven you can not cover them.

On a day when IMO Stafford had his best game of the season and prolly top 5 in career. He showed a 3rd option is used rarely. Besides RB's I think all other WR's and TE's struggle to get 12-15 targets most days between 6 guys.

I still fear Packers can use it. As I said on my pick ems' thread. I was not worried because of one Mr. Cutler.

Austin had no answer last week. Still think we see it again down the road.

As have I... stops the predictable shit.

That roll out backside was sweet when Bell and Collins went left. Almost all the defense went with the run.

I still notice Bell got all carries today. Need to use Riddick next game to mix it up and give teams more to think about.
