That hit has been called all season long.

And it was the crap coverage that lead to the Td as it was already a first down but keep crying little baby.

Cute.

But I've said nothing about the game until that call was made and nothing really since.

5-0 whobey calls and all Brars aren't close.

Odd decision to not kick the FG and try an onside kick/hail mary in the dying seconds.

The slim chances of the post season just became none with that loss barring a Stafford/Rodgers major injury. Hoping for a house cleaning in management

[ResAlien]

My god are the MNF guys insufferable. Are we all going to line up like circus seals to suck off the Ford family? Plan the parade it sounds like. Good game and good start but let's slow down a bit eh?

I gave it to the Beats a bit this game but there can be be no questions about Cutler after this he single handily kept his team I'm this game.

Sweet baby jesus how drunk are you? That wasn't even netminder english.

[DropIt]

Cutler did have a solid game while still proving that he and Forte are the only good offensive players on the field every week. He basically gave the Oline a middle finger

[d_phaneuf]

ya I thought it was one of the best games I have seen Cutler play, especially the 1st half, Oline gave nothing tonight for him

So you have zero examples then?

Lions have handled every team in front of them it isn't their fault that they beat the teams on the schedule.

[Lil Pedro]

What has impressed me about the Lions is the way they have been winning games- whether it be through dominating offensive and defensive performances or by late 4th quarter comebacks. They're a scary team in the NFC, and not only this year, but for years to come. Its a young core group of guys, and if Stafford can stay healthy they will continue to thrive

Examples? The previous posts in this very thread.

Who is blaming the Lions for who was on their schedule? Im simply stating I want to see what they do against a better than mediocre team...no more and no less. That chance may have to wait til Thanksgiving day mind you...but all the same i will be watching until then to see if they are for real. No reason to get defensive about it.

The previous posts in this thread that make sense except for maybe one mistake from auto correct on an i-phone that I already said I was using?

I guess nobody is blaming them but the cheap shot from you because people aren't falling all over your precious Packers is unneccesary.

The Lions have beat every team in front of them, looked good doing it and don't need to justify their record to be acknowledged as a top team in the league right now.

Wow...i never mentioned the "precious" Packers once ....only that the Lions are still a bit of an unknown with the way they have played in a couple games thus far.

I guess with their recent woes it's only natural to want to see them do it against some top teams...something their schedule has not allowed thus far.

A little sloppy, but I thought the Lions did what they had to do. I love the pressure the D-line is getting. They didn't get a ton of sacks but they had Cutler running for his life and Cutler had to make some great throws.

I like how the coach has the team in line and if you watched the press confrence after the game it almost sounded like the Lions were on the losing end. Three important games left leading up to the bye week (vs SF, vs ATL, @ DEN). I don't think any of those teams can be over looked or the games considered easy (maybe the boncos game but it is in Denver).

I know it is early but I am really looking forward to the Thanksgiving game.

It's officially Tebow time in Denver. Really it's the perfect situation. How many teams can tank the season to win the Andrew Luck sweepstakes and at the same time give the fans what they want to see on the field?
