Today is the day that Jahvid Best becomes a viable RB! ( I hope)

 

[BobbyLayne]

Not a lot of respect for Stafford in this thread (not that I blame anyone, you have to stay on the field). Perhaps respect is the wrong word - but very few are high on him. Here's hoping today is the start of changing some minds about him.

Great opportunity for him to have a good game, and a very winnable game for the team. They could have won any of their last three losses *(two on the road), but didn't get it done. Sure the Lions have been more competitive, but sooner or later you have to win games if you really want to prove you are better.

Detroit has to play with more discipline today; the stupid penalties have got to stop. I have a good feeling today they put it together and play solid.

Not a good first play for the Skins.

Was McNabb hit on all three plays? Yikes

Not on his first carry...

 

[BobbyLayne]

3/O & 3/O

 

[southeastjerome]

Skins offense looking good.

 

[DCThunder]

This is going to be ugly...

 

[BobbyLayne]

Vanden Bosch has a great motor for an old guy

 

[BobbyLayne]

19 sacks on the year for the Lions (3 today)

 

[BobbyLayne]

Pretty sure Best leads the league in carries for exactly one yard

 

[hutchins929]

glad I picked up the Lions Defense as a spot start this week! 2 Sacks in 4 and a half minutes

 

[terpdx]

Lions convert 3rd down. Laron Landry flexes.

 

[hutchins929]

they have 3? I only saw 2.

 

[nysportsfan]

Hall with another INT. Stafford tried to use CJ's height advantage and didnt get it up enough.

You're prolly rightOld schooling it today - watching Jets, listening to LionsRadio guys said 3

 

[terpdx]

DeAngelo Hall is picking up where he left off.

No excuse for not putting that ball 8 feet in the air when you're throwing to Megatron.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Picked up the Lions as a bye week filler DST, looking good so far

 

[Football Menace]

Seems like everytime I look at the boxscores, Best is getting a yard per carry. Is there no room to run or what?

 

[hutchins929]

Man, they are getting after McNabb BIG TIME! He's running around a lot trying to make something happen! If they keep it up... He might be blowing chunks on the field again!

 

[BobbyLayne]

Gotta convert something here - that is three short fields in a row to start the game

You too? I guess I wasn't the only one thinking it might be a good play! They get some pressure on QB's that's for sure!

KVB has been a nice surprise - I honestly didn't think he had much left. Suh is great.Those guys cover a multitude of sins by the back 7.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Dangit...just doing nothing with great field position

Thanks 'skins

Mike Shanahan had to have ##### slapped that guy who got the defensive holding called on him.

 

[duece2626]

Best injured?

Best ineffective?

What's he got, like 3 carries?

 

[hutchins929]

Best injured?

I don't know why they keep trying to rush him up the gut... he's a outside rusher or a dump off receiver if I've ever seen one.

 

[DCThunder]

Don't we have anybody better than Rabach at center?

There's a rotation, and Kevin Smith is part of it

Use K. Smith for those tough up the gut carries. Of course you have to change it up every once in a while, but come on!

Yeah, that was a terrible pass.

PfftObviously you have never seen Hunter Smith puntJust enjoy it for the beauty it is

 

[timschochet]

This game is pretty hard to watch so far.

wow nice play by Buchannon. I don't think I've said that before.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Lions RG Stephen Peterman leads the NFL in penalties

Awesome the info you get in a game like this

 

[KnowledgeReignsSupreme]

Less than impressed with the Skins so far.

 

[2Squirrels1Nut]

That's how they roll.

 

[KnowledgeReignsSupreme]

What's the record for most three and outs in a game?

 

[southeastjerome]

How was that not a block in the back on 45?

 

[BobbyLayne]

Hunter Smith going over 200 yards with his 5th punt

Anyone play in a league with Punters?

How do you score inside the 20, inside the 5, no return/FC?

Always thought that would be fun

 

[BobbyLayne]

Logan has been terrific all year
