Detroit at Carolina (1 Viewer)

[Maurile Tremblay]

Go.

 

[Liquid]

Let's go Megatron and the Lions.

 

[jon_mx]

Freeze is not going to last long.

 

[Mt. Man]

first drive:

Tate looking pretty good with a few catches. Calvin will still be the focus, but there looks to be more options. Lions deciding to (almost) fumble instead of just dropping passes, but get into FG range.

Freese... might not be the right call at K, though.

 

[Ilov80s]

Freeze is not going to last long.

He is awful. What a terrible draft pick.

 

[Ilov80s]

Tate is so shifty, he is going to be a PPR stud.

 

[Mt. Man]

Likely a good call for the Lions to hurry up after the Calvin catch, though it looked like he dragged the toe.

Ugh, Bell fumble. Detroit two good drives, 0 points.

TOTAL YARDS 1st Q: DET 126, CAR 15

Scoreboard: 0-0

 

[Mt. Man]

Carolina has basically nothing on offense, and has maybe had the ball for 4 minutes, but find themselves at 0-0 after the first quarter.

 

[pollardsvision]

Whew

 

[Mt. Man]

Kelvin Benjamin possibly hurt.

I didn't see anything on field, but he's been on the sidelines a few plays.

It happened on the play he was penalized for holding. Doesn't look serious.

 

[pollardsvision]

We need the 6'5" guy back on the field to catch balls like that

 

[aardball44]

Too many CAR first downs on third-and-long for this Lions fan's liking. :(

 

[Mt. Man]

Benjamin back in.

 

[pollardsvision]

Go get'em Stew

 

[The Commish]

Go get'em Stew

Really hoping he'll stay healthy this year.

 

[The General]

Cam needs to introduce himself to Benjamin.

 

[Mt. Man]

Nice drive for Carolina; they looked unstoppable for a while, though only up with a FG.

Mind you, the Lions have failed twice to get even that from deep in CAR territory.

 

[Mt. Man]

Calvin gets Calvin'd.

Freese misses from 49 again.

Who are the best FA kickers?

 

[The Commish]

 

[Ilov80s]

Only the ground can stop Calvin...Get Freese out here and let Suh kick

 

[pollardsvision]

KBoom!

 

[Mt. Man]

Gano makes from 53.

Lions' best halftime move will be to secretly exchange kickers.

 

[Mt. Man]

Stafford in 2 minute drill: look to calvin, look to calvin, look to calvin, look to calvin, throw ball away. Punt.

 

[BobbyLayne]

No penalties in the 2nd half of the Monday night game. 2-15 in the first half of this game.

There, something positive.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Ebron getting involved today

 

[Mt. Man]

Calvin? Bell? Ebron? Tate? nah, Collins. Wait,who?

Freese makes the XP (and yes, that's worth noting at this point); Lions take the lead.

 

[jonboltz]

Jed Collins moving to another team, but still driving me nuts.

 

[FUBAR]

Ebron getting involved today

Jed Collins

Hey, my kicker got a point

 

[Ilov80s]

Lions are playing like a real team. This is nice to see. It's a shame we can't make a field goal, that probably will be the difference.

 

[Mt. Man]

Tolbert on the sidelines. Looks like something with his right elbow.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Tolbert back in / timeout

 

[BobbyLayne]

4 sacks for DET

 

[The Commish]

Kalil needs to do a better job communicating with the rookie

 

[Spartans Rule]

Carolina should've gone for 2 there. The Lions can't kick field goals, so there's not much difference between a 5 and 6 point lead. But a 7-point lead would be huge.

 

[footballguy#1]

Is Stewart as bad as his stats are showing?

 

[BobbyLayne]

3 n out

Let's go

 

[BobbyLayne]

Is Stewart as bad as his stats are showing?

yes

 

[The Commish]

Perhaps a camera angle issue, but that looked like a broken leg with the way the upper half of his leg was "indented".

yup....camera angle.

 

[The Commish]

woot

 

[Mt. Man]

Stafford decides just to effectively punt it. Forcing the ball to Calvin? That NEVER happens...

 

[Acrobat7]

Benjamin!!

 

[The Commish]

Kelvin provding fodder for his SP thread with all the drops and then he goes and makes a catch like that....UNREAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Ilov80s]

Benjamin drops that easy one and then pulls in the best catch of the week. Wow

 

[Grigs Allmoon]

Benjamin drops that easy one and then pulls in the best catch of the week. Wow

Not sure it'll be the catch of the week. Mike Wallace had a heck of one, too. But, anyway... Yeah, that was a heck of a grab by Benjamin.

 

[The Commish]

Damn Shula...don't waste that catch with the play calling.

 

[Tango]

Benjamin drops that easy one and then pulls in the best catch of the week. Wow

2 catches

8 targets

so far

 

[The Commish]

STUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
