EVERYBODY GET YOUR ROLL ON!!!

 

[SeaDogStat]

LOL @ a pick. :X

Well, that was quick

 

[MSULions]

Dear God this is going to be ugly. I honestly can't believe they put him out there. and I could believe just about anything the Lions do :X

 

[Anthony Borbely]

The good news is Calvin had 2 targets.

 

[steviey]

Anyone have a link for that website where you can watch games online for free? Blacked out here.

 

[Grahamburn]

How awful was the pick? Is Daunte at least throwing spirals?

 

[Interseptopus]

sack

 

[MSULions]

it wasn't the worst thing you'll ever see. just tried to force one into coverage. in other words, he hasn't missed a step

 

[djmich]

Wonder how much confidence Stanton will have after they throw him in and he knows the OC expects him to embarrass himself.

 

[MSULions]

could be a good day for Kevin Smith. he's going to get a lot of work today and looks solid so far.

 

[MSULions]

bomb to Calvin!

 

[Anthony Borbely]

Bombs away to Calvin.

 

[MSULions]

that was a great throw

and Calvin brought it down despite being tackled before it got there. hauled it in w/ one hand.

If i'm the lions, that's your playbook right there.

 

[MSULions]

and now a scramble and catch and run by Kevin smith for 27

 

[MSULions]

Smith down the 2.

 

[Zow]

Daunte can throw the long ball...

 

[MSULions]

grrr....Smith back to the 5. Fade Fade Fade!!!

Are the Lions doing so bad that they can't afford real uniforms? Who in their front office thought the practice jerseys and helmets was a good idea? Every week I keep expecting the QB to have a red jersey on.

those are the same throwbacks they've worn for years.

 

[MSULions]

facemask gets 1st and goal...now Stanton is in.

 

[MSULions]

stanton throws the TD to Owens on play action!

 

[Finless]

This Culpepper/Stanton combo is looking dangerous.

 

[Mr. Brownstone]

####### Jaguars.

I LOVE those throwback uniforms.

Stanton the goal line QB?

[TheFanatic]

Stanton the goal line QB?

 

[Zow]

MJD is a bad man

 

[EdwardCat]

Stanton the goal line QB?

That's ####### fantastic. Great. ### #### Lions.

please tell me you didn't actually expect Culpepper to do something and actually started him

As a Vikings fan, I sincerely hope he does well.

 

[jabarony]

Stanton should retire now.

 

[Interseptopus]

So Culpepper came back and then Stanton threw the ball?

So Culpepper is their running play QB and Stanton pass play?

 

[pinequick]

Stanton the goal line QB?

Was Culpepper dinged or yanked... or is this a strategy thing (Stanton is the "goal line QB")?

 

[Interseptopus]

1-10-DET 20 (14:15) Det #11-D. Culpepper back in game at QB. 34-Kevin Smith right end to DET 27 for 7 yards (52-D.Smith).

2-3-DET 27 (13:31) 34-Kevin Smith left end to DET 26 for -1 yards (52-D.Smith).

3-4-DET 26 (12:45) 5-D.Stanton pass incomplete short left to 81-C.Johnson (27-R.Mathis).

that's wrong. Cpep was in the next 3 and out. he again threw a quick slant behind Calvin identical to the first throw. if he can get the timing, however, that's available all day.

 

[duece2626]

Matt Jones?

Good to know. I feel better about JAX D if Culpepper is in

 

[JaxBill]

Matt Jones?

He's in the game, but I think he's the only receiver that the Lions are covering lately.

 

[Spartans Rule]

Stanton the goal line QB?

Was Culpepper dinged or yanked... or is this a strategy thing (Stanton is the "goal line QB")?

It seemed like a strategy thing, but then again Stanton didn't come in until after Culpepper had run a failed series at the goal line. The Jags got called for a facemask on third down and then Stanton took the field.

 

[JaxBill]

From the Jag blog at the team website:

10:27 left in 2nd Qtr -- JAX: 10, DET: 7If you turned the music and the PA off, this building would be quieter than the hallway outside my hotel room last night

 

[uconnalum]

Why is Taylor getting the reps i thought Jones Drew was the starting RB.... what is going on here....

 

[ceisenhower66]

MoJo is the goalline back and now has 2 TDs. Why are you complaining? I'll take that any day!

 

[lyon812]

Another touchdown for MJD. Guess as long as he gets the important carries..

 

[JaxBill]

JDR has used them both all year. Team shows a lot more spark with MJD, though.Fred ran the ball all the way down until he got inside the 10, then Jones-Drew came in. 32 doesn't hesitate to hit the hole on the goal line.

 

[uconnalum]

I posted before he got his second TD sorry. I would like to see MJD get some more carries between the 20's also. I'm not complaining.

 

[MSULions]

damn...another long ball but underthrown. 5 yards longer and it's a 70 yard td for megatron.

 

[ceisenhower66]

That's OK - sorry about the tone...I was only joking around in my excitement!

 

[MSULions]

nice 15 yard run by Kevin Smith.

Dan Miller on the radio said Stanton will be the "Red Zone Specialist" today.

Good, let's red zone specialize to Calvin Johnson.
