This is a tough game to figure. I look to it being a defensive battle. Both teams are excellent on takeaways and score off them. Both offenses have injury problems. Wouldn't surprise me to see it come down to 13-10 Lions.

Don't quote me on that Dlev. When it was originally scheduled, it was at 4pm and it was said it was nationally televised.

Edit: I just checked the Lions' website and they have it at the new time and it still says that it's national. Actually, it says that about all of their remaining games, so I don't know how accurate it is.

If the Lions D was able to tackle or get pressure on the QB and the Lions O was able to protect, run block or play call, this team might actually be good.

I'm less and less impressed with Shaun McDonald each week. He just tries to do too much and ends up making mistakes. It has been resulting in fumbles, loss of yards, and wasted time (instead of stepping out of bounds, he tries cutting it back inside when time is more important than yardage).

Oh yeah, and Troy Walters is absolutely garbage on returns. He needs to go North. PERIOD. He is not fast enough to try this East - West crap.

McDonald ends the game on a missed catch tipped into the air as the Lions were driving for hte winning score. Game over.

McDonald must be cut tomorrow. He's been the worst player on the field all day.

Didn`t get to see the game but did the Lions face Eli or Peyton today??

The stats seem to indicate Peyton!!!!!
