I wonder if Stanton is really hurt or if they're just keeping him inactive
so Culpepper can start and there won’t be calls for Stanton to take over during the game.
"It's probably similar to being in New York City and having a cab driver behind you and you're driving too slow. It's not the most pleasant thing."
Barry Sanders, on what defensive backs who played against him compared him to.
I think they don't want Stanton to get hurt
If he got in and took one hit, he could go down for good. I look at Michigan running back Sam McGuffie. He probably came back too quickly after his concussions and ended up with three this season.

I was hoping they would be out so we would have a chance to run the ball.

we're screwed
as far as recievers go today, CJ’s going to be triple teamed today. I mean standeford is our number 2 guy.
fluellen
I wish he wasn’t hurt, I was hoping to see him start the rest of the season along with avril to see their potential. From what I’ve seen I think Avril could be a starter, especially with a dominating end on the other side.

i read a good article
about how this is the first time smith is running with a healthy line
I was playing madden this week...
and every time stuart schweigert made a tackle on special teams I laughed my ass off. I think these guys should feel awesome just to be immortalized in video game form. Does this mean that I’ll be throwing to kerry colbert this week.

why is it...
that we have played our best football against the nfc norths number 1 team. Does that say alot for this division or what.
id be pissed...
if I was a team like the eagles, redskins or cowboys and saw a team like the vikings or bears making it to the playoffs.
Who is Ryan Nece?
I’ve been seeing him the past couple weeks but I don’t remember him being on the team early on
free agent..
we picked up in like week one or two because dizons either a bust or our coaching staff doesn’t think he has the right personality to play football.
So Culpepper threw a bomb into the end zone and it was intercepted

Kevin Smith needs 30 carries today

the best thing that could happen to the lions is to turn this season around and get the 2nd overall pick (which they will be able to get either andre smith or michael oher or matt stafford) without paying out that #1 pick salary.

Tebow won't be a first-round pick because of the things you said
He is not an NFL QB.
Check out Pride of Detroit, SB Nation's Lions Blog
Just impressed by the game yesterday….i know all the reasons for why he isn’t supposed to be NFL quality….but count me as among those wondering why he wouldn’t rate a shot, anyway….
not as a 1st pick overall, that was silly hyperbole on my part….
Well, the problem with Tebow is that he’s going to impress the hell out of everybody with his interviews, and he’s going to test out extremely well also. I think somebody is going to take a chance on him earlier than he should actually be drafted, so even if he’s not a first round prospect I could see him sliding into the late first on draft day. He’s a great kid, but I just don’t see him being a good NFL quarterback.
The problem is somebody is going to buy into the hype and I sure as hell hope it isn’t the Lions.

Tebow is nothing in the NFL
We need to sign matt Cassell as our QB. Shore up the D and Oline with the draft.

Haha thanks man
I certainly feel like doing that right now. Oh well, Michigan beat Duke yesterday and I got to rush the court. So that makes up for the Lions for sure.

Yeah that was unreal
I wish I was at that game. Two top-5 wins is a lock to make the tourney now if we have a decent year. And Manny Harris…holy lord. Straight pimp.

I'll have the recap up sometime late tonight/early tomorrow HOPEFULLY
I have a paper due tomorrow and a pair of exams on Tuesday, so I have to study. I’ll be back Wednesday and will be done with the semester, so there will be plenty of time for posting.

Thanks Sean.
Good luck on the exams.

Barry Sanders, on what defensive backs who played against him compared him to.
