Interesting read on our offensive game film
I am sorry but I can't call DA soft. Did you not see some of those shots that he took during the game, but yet he still continued to get back up and go at it again. Cutler needs to try and limit those other wise DA or another receiver will get killed trying to make a tough catch.

Why the heck are we not in the mix on this?
I agree, there is no way we trade away a high draft pick. Especially with the uncertainty of the coaching staff. I know JA doesn't think like this. But if we do ax JA and company we are kinda tieing the hands of the next coaching staff.

Just heard on the Score...Hilly on IR
Wow it must be serious I sure hope he's alright. He is a class act

Optimism
Your absolutely right. We had over 400 yards of offense and the D held lions to less than 200 total yards. If we limit the TO's and the coaching staff(LS) learns how to coach(i know i know) we could do alright.

Lovie Must be Fired!
Lovie Smith on going for it on 4th and goal: “I said I would make that call at that time every time. That’s what I’m saying now." I found this on Zach Zaidman's twitter page. Seriously can we just fire him now and give someone with a brain the job.

Yup, I see that. I am watching the game also. Kolb isn't hurt hurt he just had a concussion and I think Vick could hurt them more because of his altheticism. but if Ryan Grant is out for a while thats good news because they don't have a running game without him. I know Kuhn is doing alright but hes just a FB and Jackson sucks.

Your right. great pt. Prior to that last drive the defense gave up something like 108 yds total offense. Thats great.

I am so glad I will be home next week 2 watch the game. Unfortunately I just know that I will miss the Monday night game against GB in wk 3. I normally leave Sunday nights, like I will tonight probably around 8. I was glad 2 see that the offense is making strides, unfortunately we do have a tough schedule this year. I don't believe Minny will be as good as they were last year but GB is tough.

another ridiculous call would be on Marinelli. On that non-TD catch by Johnson he was 1-1 with Zach Bowman, who was strugging today with cramps. Why would you do that.

Lovie Must be Fired!
Yeah I can't imagine what he was thinking. Usually I can understand where a coach is coming from although I may not agree with it but I thought that call was a no brainer. And I can't stand how a team goes into a prevent defense. Its a horrible D and should never be used.

Exactly, great point. Cutler threw for 372 yds and would have been over 400 yards if DA didn't drop the perfectly placed ball in the end zone. I think I counted DA with 4 drops, not sure what the NFL count is cuz its not up yet, but then you consider the fumbles by Olsen and Forte when we are driving. The Oline wasn't great but they weren't horrible either. Detroit had 4 sacks, which isn't good however that means the oline performed better than they did in the preseason. Oline did allow Cutler some time 2 throw. By no means were they great but they did perform better than they did in the preseason which is a step in the right direction. The next 2 weeks will be tough ones though and the Oline must do better.

That I am not sure. I didn't think Williams was having that bad of a game.

I thought thats a great feature to have him on call during a game. I love that new rule lol. We just dodged a HUGEEEEEE bullett

hopefully this stands.

Lions @ Bears, 9/12/10 game thread
DA has to hang on to the ball. enough with all these drops.
-
Lions @ Bears, 9/12/10 game thread
great throw. hopefully hes alright.

You are absolutely right.

Lions @ Bears, 9/12/10 game thread
If LS thought we wanted him gone to begin with just wait if we lose this game by this same score. There is absolutely no reason why you don't kick the FG. The Defense stepped up once again and gave us great field position. We MUST score NOW.

Lions @ Bears, 9/12/10 game thread
LS should be fired for that call. What is he thinking.
-
Lions @ Bears, 9/12/10 game thread
Yup the offense is so bad yet Cutler has 300 yards passing. Its the key drops and fumbles thats killing us.

Lions @ Bears, 9/12/10 game thread
Here is the best stat in the game. Calvin Johnson has 0 catches

Looks like Shaun Hill is the #2 if Stafford can't go. Honestly I wouldnt be surprised if he suffered a seperated shoulder for the 2nd straight year against us.
