[DA RAIDERS]

no kevin smith thread?

 

[Big Rocks]

Fumble!

 

[lyon812]

That isn't the way to carry the ball, Mr. Nelson.

 

[Sack-Religious]

Given his history of non-disclosure regarding injuries this year, I'm wondering if Schwartz purposely held Calvin and Stafford out of practice this week and made it appear that they were in worse shape than they actually were to get a leg up on the injury-riddled Packers.

 

[IDrinkyourMilkshake]

Why aren't the Lions wearing their turkey day uniforms?

 

[ArcticEdge]

GO MEGATRON!!! GO LIONS!!!

Mangini, is that you?

 

[r0llin_game]

yikes, gg petti

 

[Chargers86]

Pettigrew down..knee.

 

[Anthony Borbely]

Pettigrew down....looked like his cleat got caught in the turf.

 

[Desert_Power]

God roughing the passer rules are stupid.

 

[Jeff Pasquino]

Pettigrew down - looks to be left lower leg - hopefully not a knee. Maybe a twisted ankle? Happened while engaged and blocking the defensive end.

 

[HF21]

That penalty was weak.

Calvin!!

 

[ArcticEdge]

CALVIN JOHNSON!!!!!!

 

[Jeff Pasquino]

[staples] That was easy. [/staples]

 

[lyon812]

Nice touchdown there. Johnson looks gimpy. Guess he hasn't been "lionized".

 

[Anthony Borbely]

Calvin !!!!!!

 

[Zigg]

God roughing the passer rules are stupid.

I understand wanting to protect the QB, but they really need 5 and 15 yard options. 15 and a automatic first is too severe for some of the minimal contact that's getting flagged.

 

[cmv5]

Finally starting to see the rapport between Calvin and Stafford.

 

[mozzy84]

nice!

I couldn't agree more.

Seriously though. The Packers lost a key member of their secondary and one of thier best pass rushers and DET basically says, for the first time this year, two of our major weapons won't be playing on Thursday. The Pack are already reeling coming up with schemes to minimize the loss of Harris and Kampman and they're told they likely won't be facing Megatron and Stafford, so they probably don't gameplan quite as hard for them.Then the Lions announce about 1.5 hours before the game that both guys are playing and it puts the GB defence even more off-balance.Just sayin'

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Calvin !!!!!!

 

[ArcticEdge]

Almost had to play stinky Braylon Edwards today. God Bless Calvin Johnson and GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!

 

[QUEZILLA]

Just when I thought I found a serviceable TE.

 

[Guru]

Pettigrew limping and being assisted to the locker room. They said his return is questionable.

 

[kd1]

that run by brandon jackson was a forward pass. i'd imagine they'll switch that later in the week

 

[Jeff Pasquino]

Pettigrew limping and being assisted to the locker room. They said his return is questionable.

They said "knee" too - of course guessing, but has the look and feel of an MCL.

 

[ArcticEdge]

Ahh!!! You suck Crosby!

 

[lyon812]

Crosby really isn't that good.

 

[Osaurus]

Missed the first 9 minutes due to Fios schedule saying it started at 1. Doesn't look like I missed much.

 

[Your Mom]

Is Finley always used this little? Seems like he is in once every 3 downs or so.

 

[cr8f]

Who's game plan is this. They are 32nd against the pass so run, run, pass to the fullback?

Throw to Finley they can't cover that guy.

 

[cr8f]

No the whole gameplan is unusual.

 

[Jeff Pasquino]

Not even close to open....

 

[Mr. Retukes]

Collins bobbled the ball out of bounds. Detroit should throw the flag.

 

[kd1]

playing the worst pass d in the nfl....better hand it off as much as possible mccarthy.

Thought so, but wasn't sure. Thanks

 

[cr8f]

Stop running the #### ball! You've made your point.

 

[Chargers86]

WOW. I didn't realize how bad the Lions defense was....

 

[Jeff Pasquino]

I think Driver was a little open there.

 

[Zigg]

Is Detroit going to put a hammock in the pocket for Rodgers?

 

[Big Rocks]

Rodgers had enough time to twitter there.

 

[Zigg]

I think Driver was a little open there.

I imagine it's tough to cover a man for 6 minutes.
