Very big game for the Bears. Much better team than the Lions, they just cant get caught here. As long as they play smart they win.

Im still nervous because this is the type of game they will get caught off guard and lose late.

The Road to Redemption begins today. Detroit Lions Super Bowl 2010!

 

[BuckCherry]

Chicago trap game... Lions are at home, off bye, against a hated division rival, and Matt Millen finally GONE!

Kitna to MEGATRON, Touchdown !

Agreed, I'll be pleasantly surprised if the Bears don't slip up. Orton throws a few picks, Kinta picks apart the cover-2, bad times....

 

[lord_helmet]

I'm looking for Olsen to have a nice game

 

[timschochet]

Very curious to see if the new 4 man wide receiver offense (as reported) means more or less targets for Calvin Johnson.

 

[RBM]

Ha, Matt Vasgersian just called Kevin Smith the "Lions' outstanding rookie back"

 

[DTW_flyer]

No HD, wth? Am I the lone ranger getting only SD?

 

[Addai's Adidas]

Kevin Smith Starting.

 

[BoulderBob]

Long return from Hester called back...

Forte already with 2 receptions/2 carries...beast!

 

[Goooals]

Anyone know why K Smith is starting?

 

[BoulderBob]

Beautiful 60 yard play action pass to Greg Olsen...didn't see that coming from the goal-line!

 

[Anthony Borbely]

Anyone know why K Smith is starting?

This is the Lions. Your guess is as good as mine.

 

[flapgreen]

The Lions suck

 

[RBM]

Hester....nice hands on that 3rd down catch

 

[Mt. Man]

The Lions suck

Detroit now outscored 38-0 in the first quarter.Lions with -4 yards of offense -- (+)6 if you count two penalties by Chicago.

 

[vacaver1]

Kevin Jones in the last two series. Anything wrong with Forte?

 

[flapgreen]

hell yeah

 

[W1cked]

Fire Kitna!

 

[vacaver1]

Never mind. Back in.

 

[flapgreen]

PASS? WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[flapgreen]

Damn the stupid play calling. YOU'RE AN IDIOT, RON TURNER

 

[BoulderBob]

Bears not putting points on the board, momentum will change at some point...Chicago should have scored 2TD's by now...

 

[Mt. Man]

Calvin gets his first target... but drops the sure first down.

 

[flapgreen]

I feel bad for the Bears defense and special teams all of these years. The offense has done nothing but hurt this team. Sad

 

[BoulderBob]

Lions d-line starting to abise the Bears front...not looking good for Forte...

 

[RenegadeGM]

"He's the best tackler, and stripper, in the league"

 

[BoulderBob]

TD REC Forte, should be reversed...Bears will probably have first and goal from the 1...

Why? More detail for those of us who can't see it, please.

 

[BoulderBob]

He was tackled before the goal-line, terrible call by the review crew, but the TD stands...

 

[Addai's Adidas]

I think we will be seeing Stanton soon.

 

[vacaver1]

He was tackled before the goal-line, terrible call by the review crew, but the TD stands...

Thanks!

 

[Anthony Borbely]

He was tackled before the goal-line, terrible call by the review crew, but the TD stands...

He was a full yard short. I can't believe they let that stand.

 

[BoulderBob]

Lions in the hurry-up, picking apart the Bears D!

EDIT: Until the great Kitna takes another sack, what a bum!

Hester with a long reception, 4 of them for first downs today according to the TV crew...

Orton with another long completetion(30+ yards) to R. Davis

2 Minute Warning

HESTER TOUCHDOWN! Looks like a WR today

 

[SierraKiloBravo]

Granted, I'm watching this via stats on NFL.com, but DET looks dreadful. Just dreadful. They must be very thankful that the NFL doesn't have a promotion / relegation system.

 

[skillz]

He was a full yard short. I can't believe they let that stand.

It was the wrong call but the Bears would have scored on the next play anyway

 

[brady2moss]

ANY CALVIN JOHNSON

 

[flapgreen]

It's amazing how much different our defense is with Mike Brown. It must be a mental thing.

 

[Mt. Man]

TD Hester, making the Lions D look... well, like they have most of this year, honestly.

 

[BoulderBob]

Calvin Johnson hasn't been involved much...although that should change now that the Bears are up 17-0...

 

[BoulderBob]

The Lions run defense has played well, and the front four have been getting significant push, but outside of shutting down Forte/Jones, this has been a debacle. Didn't Millen spend some cash on the secondary?

 

[RenegadeGM]

Man, has Leigh Bodden ever been a disappointment...

 

[Mt. Man]

Detroit allowing under 21 points in the first half for the first time this season.

On the other hand, the Lions had at least scored by my this point in the first 3 games.

 

[jonboltz]

Who is this guy in the Orton jersey this year?

 

[timschochet]

You know Lions, you're not doing so well, perhaps you should think about...

THROWING THE DAMN BALL TO YOUR BEST WIDE RECEIVER MORE THAN ONE TIME IN A HALF!!!!! (And yes, I'm talking about Calvin Johnson.)

Sometimes I get so frustrated...

 

[gbill2004]

Any word on whether Stanton is coming in for the second half??

 

[Mt. Man]

Any word on whether Stanton is coming in for the second half??

He's the 3rd QB, so he won't come in before the 4th quarter. Kitna's not the (sole) problem, as WRs have 4 drops. No word, but I wouldn't be surprised at this point.

 

[One]

Orton

GB Detroit

 

[spacepimp]

Ernise Sims "injured, injured" or just "Ernie Sims injured"?
