Let's go Leos!
The Pack is ready to finally lose to the Lions in Green Bay after 20 some-odd years of domination. Fairley and Suh will have to make Rodgers life miserable in order for the upset to happen.
After seeing the Lions opening line-up I lose some faith. They sped a draft pick to get WR Thomas and now when they are desperate for WRs, they start a dude from their practice squad??
Lions currently driving for what history tells me will be a FG. Prediction Lions 20 Packers 23

As always, I nailed it. Stafford runs one in on a 4th and inches. 7-0 Leos.

Lions drive down the field for a short TD grab by Sheffler. 14-0 Good Guys. Packers pretty listless at this point. Better wake up cheeseheads, the playoffs may be riding on how they respond.

Joique Bell once again looks like a much more complete RB than Mikal Leshoure. If he had any speed....

What a poor showing at the end by Stafford and the Lions. Series and game in the balance and not one pass to Megatron. Not the first time this has happened. More disturbing was watching Stafford sling the ball around to receivers who were not open. So if you are just going to toss a pass and let the receiver fight for it, wouldn't you want Calvin to be the guy?
Classic Schwartz, one team came out with answers after half time and the other team was the Lions. Pretty frustrating times for Lions fans as the realization that we are much more like this year's team than last years.
BTW, all the fluff that Collinsworth is saying about Suh is just pr. The guy doesn't talk to local media, only national coverage that won't ask tougher questions and are easier to manipulate to pump up the Suh brand.

Agreed, I was rooting for the Lions since I like the Bears more than the Packers and sadly they couldn't play a good 2nd half.

That's the real kicker. The Pack were very beatable tonight. NFC Central leaders suddenly looking shakey
