Guessing it didn't go too well for you Scottaa. Condolences.

Sadly condolences are also in order for the Lions. Call them the not ready for prime time Lions. They simply lack the intelligence and courage to play with the big boys. Stafford needed to have a big game. No law against it, all he had to do was try. But despite throwing for over 400 yards his game reflected the Lions team - fraudulant. He was no closer to winning that game than the Lions are to making the playoffs. Just ain't happening. Mirroring again the team he plays for, Stafford showed he wasn't ready to compete in big games when he underthrew Megatron when he was wide open deep. Not unlike head coach Schwartz missing the opportunity to get his team to grow up. By not publicly admonishing Suh for his childish, selfish behavior the rest of the team learned nothing as they had several personal fouls and rediculous offensive PI penalties. I am not talking discipline as much as I am the product of discipline: focus. Schwartz's teams simply don't seem to understand that they are supposed to try and win a game, on every play, between every play. Very saddened to see Schwartz lack of awareness of this basic tenet of leadership. Until he does, or they find a coach who will, the Leos will not be ready for prime time.
Losers make excuses, Mr. Schwartz, and dumb penalties are just an excuse used by losers.

Sad to see K Smith hurting, such a good story.

Don't forget the pass to Young at the end of the first half. Yes, it was a 49 yard completion but if he lead him (or at least didn't underthrow him as well), it would have been a TD.
