Cason has been very solid on returns since he was picked back up. He should be taking all of the returns away from Walters, who shouldn't even be in the league.

Cason has also been an excellent receiver out of the backfield.

Re: Lions vs Packers - 2007 - Turkey Day Game Thread

The O-line is horrible as always, but Jon Kitna needs to learn to SET UP IN THE FREAKING POCKET!!!!

Especially since the O-line is so bad. If you look at almost EVERY single passing play, the entire defensive line usually gets well into the Lions' backfield. All Kitna has to do is take 2 steps up and there is NO ONE within 10 yards of him. That would buy him an extra 4 or 5 seconds to find an open receiver, or at the very least, take off and SLIDE to get some positive yardage.

HAHAHAHA

This team can't do anything right. Packers driving and have the ball in the end zone. Lions tip the ball, pick it off and would have returned it 90 yards for a score, but the play was called dead because the Lions' D called a timeout (their 2nd defensive timeout of the 2nd half) just before the snap.

I honestly don't see this team winning another game this season.

Kitna takes 1 or maybe 2 steps up while the pocket is closing around him and he has open field, but won't run the ball. Stanton could fix this next year.

You guys enjoying the game? Wow, this is terrible. I guess they need to draft O-line for next season, huh? Kinda like this season.

Lions need to go 4-1 the rest of the way to make good on Kitna's pledge.

Re: Lions vs Packers - 2007 - Turkey Day Game Thread

Farverre' had 19 or 20 straight complete passes because his players know the routes and he gets rid of the ball within 4-5 seconds after he receives the snap. Kitna took 3-4 sacks because he holds it to long and his receivers can't get open. Calvin Johnson seemed lost out there today and maybe Charlie Sanders should have suited up since he was there.

The penalty on the first scoring opportunity was a momentum killer and downer for the offense and then to come up empty on first two offensive series where they had to settle for the FG's set the tone for the rest of the game.
