Week 2 - Lions vs. Bears

Will Detroit continue their winning ways and beat Chicago at Soldier Field this Sunday?

Detroit's offense wasn't setting the world on fire vs. Green Bay, so there's definitely room for improvement there, and their defense did play surprisingly well, especially in the second half.

Chicago losing their starting QB in preseason should bode well for the home team. But, can Detroit put points on the board against a much better defensive unit then what they faced in week 1?

I'll be surprised if they can't beat the Bears. The Bears shouldn't be able to put up as many as the Lions. If the Lions can't beat the Bears it's going to be another one of "those" seasons. Last year, I believe Kevin Jones did well against their defense. If Harrington is allowed to throw the ball our receivers will find a way to catch it.

Detroit 21

Bears 12


Did I just predict a Lions victory...I should know better than that.

IT happened again today for the umpteenth time:

Darth wears Lions baseball cap to retail store

Young male clerk (YMC) : The Lions...You're from Michigan?
Darth: Yeah, lived there my whole life. Just moved here.
YMC: Too bad they stink all the time
Darth: This year will be different I think...really, it will...I mean it
YMC: **snickers** uh huh

D-fence

I think this game is going to be ugly. I can see this game being a TD free field goal battle.

This is the worst possible game for Hanson to go down to injury.

Nah...

I expect the offense to wake up this week. We are lucky to draw Chicago in a week without our most reliable special teams player.

I see a very low scoring game. With Hanson out, we could be in trouble. With Chicago's quarterback woes, I think our defense may even outscore our offense tomorrow. I still think Detroit will prevail. 10 points may win this game.

Wow is this a debacle at half time or what?

Joey is getting zero protection, the D-Line is embarassing and Roy Williams is dropping balls/running bad routes.

Even Troy Aikman is sticking up for JoJo and I see the same thing. These young guys are playing like crap. And Mooch's game plan as usual is so vanila, it might as well be water because it's see through and flavourless.

This team is so far away from being good, it's not even funny. What a joke. Man, I hate the Lions.

Unbelievable. No way I saw this coming. I wonder what Ford thinks about that contract extension to Millen right now.

Same old Lions.
