Thanks but not necessary. Many years of disappointment by the Lions has kind of made me no more than a casual observer. I generally enjoy reading what stupid thing that they did to blow the previous game.
The game was blacked out here and my interest lies with the Tigers who are being chased relentlessly by your baseball team. They flashed the Lions score at one point, so I knew that they were winning 13 to 7, but I know absolutely nothing about what happened.

All that money that Dan Snyder pumps into his football team and they still suck.Proof that money can't buy everything.

Ya'll watch out,the Ravens are one of the best teams in football and they will go very far this year. |
Aw man, why are the Browns despised. We probably won't get a win this year and the Ravens wouldn't even exist if it weren't for the Browns. You took all our talent and kept it.

Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal.

Agreed. No one, (who is realistic) is denying that he is still good, and he still has the love for the game. The way he's been throwing blocks and making miraculous comebacks is impressive, but expected. He's still a prima donna asshat Soooo how about those Steelers? I'm 100% neutral on the team, but I died a little bit watching that game. Random note: I have been a huge fan of Pierre Thomas ever since he went undrafted, and made it on the roster beating Antonio Pittman. 126 yards and 2 TD's The guy is pretty damn good, and while Brees was held captive, Thomas won the game.

What's with the Steel Curtain these days? Two games in a row lost on the last play of the game. Big Ben is not doing his job either, they should have had 3 TD on their first 3 drives.

Last week it was two missed should-be-automatic field goals, this week it was a touchdown that Linus Sweed dropped after Ben hit him in the hands in the end zone. It's just kinda been a perfect storm of mediocre play and really sh*tty luck the past two weeks.

With Stover gone there is not one Raven who was ever a Brown.Ozzie Newsome is a draft genius and has consistently drafted extremely talented players that everyone else overlooks.That was all done after the team relocated to Baltimore,so give us some credit.
Cleveland got to keep their name,logo and colors.Baltimore wasn't allowed that luxury.f**kin galls the sh*t out of me that Unitas is in the HoF and all of his accomplishments are credited to the INDIANAPOLIS Colts.So Cleveland got off easy.

I don't know really, the yesterday's game was a example that Tomlin needs to fix some defensive issues and tell Big Ben that they are a team that play 4 quarters instead of two.
Reed have very strange problems, he's failing every kick that have in foots  .
I'm hope that the coach team revise this game as an example of how you forgive and lose.

Right! |
Don't blame Ben, the only time the offense is effective is when he calls the majority of the plays. The Offensive Coordinator (Bruce Arians) is a dunce, a complete bumbling idiot, but he has a ring and there's no way he's going anywhere anytime soon.

Yeah, I used to not like Ben...but over time I've grown to like him.
Can't deny his toughness. Guy takes a sh*t load of hits and keeps on going.

Hard to believe how good they can be with a terrible offensive line.They can't protect the QB at all.

It is pretty amazing. One of the fundamental keys of football. I guess they compensate with their D and Ben being such a big guy  Random note: Vikings V. Packers! Should be a good game, for several reasons

The guy is listed at 6'5" 241 lbs
And of course these official listings are not always right on. I wouldn't be surprised if he was 250.
Big dude, and not too bad a QB (even though I used to think so) I really do give the guy props for what he does.
And besides the Favre/Rodgers battle, some good ol smashmouth tough defensive teams.
Can't wait
