Never thought I'd be saying this, but I'm glad Denver is on the road this week.

Choo Choo -- That Lions bandwagon is rolling down the tracks! You better hop on now before its too late!

 

[Courtjester]

KJ is running really well today...

I thought that was the sound of Duckett & Jones..... Hopefully they can keep the running game up like they did last week.

Missed FG by Elam makes the botched on side kick attempt by the Lions look a little better!

 

[ffldrew]

Broncos off to a great start on offense. Get ball in Detroit territory and put together an awesome 20 yard drive punctuated by a false start on third and inches followed by a missed Elam FG attempt. Whoo Hoo! Go Broncos and take Shanahan with you.

Hope D had time to rest and get ready for Detroit to run ball down their throat.

Yep -- once again, the Lions D (somehow) gets off the field without allowing any points.

What are the odds of Kitna throwing a TD today?

 

[ffldrew]

This is sad. Shades of Michael Dean Perry.

 

[2Young2BBald]

What are the odds of Kitna throwing a TD today?

Not very good at this moment, he is 2 of 7, I think.

 

[Mt. Man]

At least Hanson is in top form for Detroit.

Just, please, don't onside kick this time.

 

[MCguidance]

Henry might not find much room all day, huh? 5 for 6 yards?

 

[2Young2BBald]

Great Sack by BIg Baby. Cutler is down.

Not to quote myself, but now he's being carted back to the locker room.

 

[MSULions]

Cutler riding cart to locker room. It's Patrick Ramsey time.

Cutler being looked at after taking a sack

on his way to the ocker room, no idea what he hurt.

 

[NatronIsMean]

F'in Cutler. I've been awful at QB all year... starting with the Bulger draft pick.

PLEASE keep us updated on Cutler's status!

 

[hofer]

Patrick Ramsey.......

We're doomed.

 

[BigRed]

Henry 135 yards 1 TD

Whatever you're smoking, pass it over. Henry is easily one of the most overrated RBs this year and isn't doing squat. Course neither is DEN in general. He'll be lucky to get 50 yds total and lol @ scoring.

 

[ffldrew]

Cutler going off in cart - looked like an ankle/high ankle area injury.

I'm trying to remember back to preseason and I don't think Ramsey had any particular favorite targets. He just hit Stokley and Scheffler so I would think he's going to look for the safer guys to go too for now.

 

[MSULions]

For those keeping score: Bly 1 ROY 0

Roy ran an end around that bly got him on for a loss of 8. that had to hurt

 

[EdwardCat]

Denver's offense can't seriously be this bad, can it?

 

[MSULions]

KJ with 9 more on 1st down. he looks elusive and FAST.

 

[Courtjester]

I am no doctor, but I am guessing it is a knee injury for Cutler.

Ramsey looking decent so far. He put that ball right in Graham's hands for the 1st down and it was dropped.

 

[MSULions]

What are the odds of Kitna throwing a TD today?

if Dre Bly plays the whole game? 99%

 

[2Young2BBald]

Just saw Cutler replay, big helmet shot to the ankle as he was being upended on a sack and it didn't look good.

 

[2Young2BBald]

TD Furry from Kitna!

 

[Mt. Man]

What are the odds of Kitna throwing a TD today?

There you go.Nice run by Furrey -- that's his 1st.I'm not sure if he actually got in, but it's too late to challenge now.

 

[MSULions]

This could very well be a route. There's something about this Lions team....They look really good. And Denver looks pretty bad.

 

[ffldrew]

Even a challenge there would have been a waste. Broncos couldn't stop them from a yard out.

He didn't get in and Detroit gave them plenty of time to appeal.

 

[Mt. Man]

F'in Cutler. I've been awful at QB all year... starting with the Bulger draft pick. PLEASE keep us updated on Cutler's status!

Announcers just calling it a "left leg injury" for now. Hopefully more info will come at/after halftime.

Thanks - and thanks for all the updates everyone--

Travesty Henry having another huge day. He's almost broken the 10 yard barrier.

Don't worry I saw Towelie on the sidelines.

 

[2Young2BBald]

Kitna is getting amazing protection.

 

[MSULions]

it's the Roy Williams and Calvin Johnson show on this drive. lions at the Denver 20 with a minute to go. They've had 3 posessions and scored on all three in addition to burning a lot of clock. Extremely impressive.

 

[MSULions]

3rd and five w/ 45 seconds to go. I say this is 4 down territory. two runs by KJ can get five yards easy.

 

[MSULions]

Got greedy and went for the endzone on 2nd and 3rd downs from the 20. Hanson on.....

 

[2Young2BBald]

Ho Hum, another Hanson Field Goal.

 

[MSULions]

16-0 Lions. 4 possessions = 3 fgs and a td. Should be one more TD, but can't complain with getting points every time you get the ball.

 

[ffldrew]

Another fantastic special teams effort by the Broncos.
