Bad defensive teams dont get calls...never will.

I thought Lions would have learned something last week against GB, it isn't all about the refs. In fact, their coach even said, it isn't the refs!

Brees has all day in the pocket, can throw to whoever he wants, they can't stop Sproles.

The 49ers defense is going to be tested next week. I hope the Saints win because I'd like to see another Packers - Saints shootout.

The Lions with some defensive tweaking, are going to hard to beat in the years ahead.

They remind of the Pack now----they can throw the ball all over the place, but have trouble shutting any one down-----the only thing they cant do that the packers can, is pick off passes---without those 31 ints the Packers really would have lost several more games this year.

Lions fans----from a Pack fan---your day is coming---things are looking up for you guys.

The Lions need to improve on their defense and they also need to learn to take advantage of takeaways. They had two early in the game and didn't capitalize on either of them. If they can fix those two problems, they will be a tough force in a few years. Good season for them though overall.
