A TD one
2009 = The start of the Lions Golden Age (We hope).

I really wanna see a good route by a tight end
Let’s get Pettigrew in there!
We didn't lose the games, we just ran out of time -- Bobby Layne
fade to megatron
let the guy jump up and get it
Agree with the fades
Put in near Calvin and let him go get it.

Another check off type of pass
And Smith made a move to get close to the first.
Pride of Detroit, SB Nation's Lions Blog
Whoo 1st down?
Hated that pass though.
We didn't lose the games, we just ran out of time -- Bobby Layne
Let's have some 4th down plays like Michigan did yesterday
Turn it into a TD.
Pride of Detroit, SB Nation's Lions Blog
I go for it on 4th on Madden sometimes
depends on the situation. this is a must have play though.
same

Fake handoff to Felton and a pitch out to Smith
He walked into the end zone.

Now i see Linehan's reasoning on that 3rd and 1 pitch
We didn't lose the games, we just ran out of time -- Bobby Layne
Still have to stop the vertical passing attack of the Saints.....
And playing from behind does not help our chances at all.
I want like 10 catches by Lance more for 1 yard each, and he never gets a 1st down
Ill take those 10 points in PPR lol

To me this season is all about improvement
So far, I think we have, I mean, 10 points instead of 7 against the Saints
2009 = The start of the Lions Golden Age (We hope).
Adrian Peterson
Is just so wild to watch.
We didn't lose the games, we just ran out of time -- Bobby Layne
i'm ok with that
Anytime the Saints don’t pass is fine by me
We didn't lose the games, we just ran out of time -- Bobby Layne
Has Peterson done anything yet? Haven’t seen his name come up

I am listening to them too, those announcers are a trip man

There were a quite a few Lions around the receiver downfield
And Henry actually ran into someone right after the pick.

Dont try that bullshit against Gunther MAN!!!!!!!!!
We dont play that shit!

Stafford's pass is short of Calvin
He stood tough in the pocket despite the blitz.
Pride of Detroit, SB Nation's Lions Blog
They both want the ball...I like that

Who would've thought
Brees throws an interception before Stafford
We didn't lose the games, we just ran out of time -- Bobby Layne
i agree
but our D hasn’t been that bad when we’ve put them in bad field position… better to try to pin them back… take some more chances in the second half (when we’re probably behind a few scores)
I vote we shoot Kerry Colbert

It's like their main goal of the game
Is to make sure STafford looks good on the stat sheet
We didn't lose the games, we just ran out of time -- Bobby Layne
We are behind by 4 points and we are going to play it conservatively on 3rd and 4??
You have got to be kidding me! I could call a better game.
Still early in the game
That’s the only reason I can come up with
2009 = The start of the Lions Golden Age (We hope).
by Hyperion Ecta on Sep 13, 2009 2:05 PM EDT up reply actions
It doesn't matter to me
I would pass on 3rd and 4th unless I was up 2 TDs in the 4th quarter with 1:00 minute left
We didn't lose the games, we just ran out of time -- Bobby Layne
In fairness, though, Staff hadn't had the time to really look downfield.
but the playcalling is very very conservative considering we’re playing a team that could put 7 on us in about 2 seconds.
Can't let them break those big runs
It’s Mike Bell man
We didn't lose the games, we just ran out of time -- Bobby Layne
Stafford and Sanchez...
I live in NY and am watching Sanchez and the Jets play. His stats are poor but they are letting him fling the football at least.
by Barry the Great on Sep 13, 2009 2:05 PM EDT reply actions
i'm watching that game too
and because they are letting him fling it around, sanchez has looked bad at times… really bad
Was it a sitter?

On the bright side
zero sacks on Staff. So much for the “Stafford’s going to get himself killed” contingent.
But most of his passes
Took about 1 second to develop.
We didn't lose the games, we just ran out of time -- Bobby Layne
Colston dropped it (he was wide open)
And it bounced right off of Delmas facemask.
Pride of Detroit, SB Nation's Lions Blog
Bell has another first down
This time on the draw. He slipped and is shaking up a bit. May have a groin injury.
Pride of Detroit, SB Nation's Lions Blog
Bell is back in
So he must have just taken a shot between the legs or something.
Pride of Detroit, SB Nation's Lions Blog
Our D
Horrible in the first two drives, pretty good on the next two drives, now they’re shitting a brick.
We didn't lose the games, we just ran out of time -- Bobby Layne
Finally got some pressure on Brees
But he steps up and finds an open receiver for a first down.
Pride of Detroit, SB Nation's Lions Blog
Put some pressure on Brees!
He has years to throw it!
We didn't lose the games, we just ran out of time -- Bobby Layne
d00d! I thought it was a later game!
and I thought I was gonna be able to watch it, cuz the vikes are playing now, and the pack and bears later….what the fargas!

Gotta be on the ball there ahtrap

being on the ball is more easily accomplished with sobriety

Good stop
3rd and goal. We can still force them into a field goal
We didn't lose the games, we just ran out of time -- Bobby Layne
Where's the internet feed?

Mine was very jumpy
So I abandoned it

Delmas with an unsportsmanlike penalty for knocking the ball out of Shockey's hands after the play
Pride of Detroit, SB Nation's Lions Blog
Geez
Why is that a penalty?

why don't teams just go for the onsides here?
catch them offguard and if you don’t get it, it’s still not putting them in great field position
Pass to Heller incomplete
Not a very good pass. NO only rushed 3 and still got pressure on him.
Pride of Detroit, SB Nation's Lions Blog
Almost picked off
Lions went max protect and there was still a ton of pressure.
Pride of Detroit, SB Nation's Lions Blog
lol
we got one, we should be sacrificing goats just for that.

Let’s at least get a field goal out of this last possession.

Which doesn’t bode well for the rest of the home games.

Stafford's playing timid
He needs to just let loose. There’s nothing to lose
Saints have time to do something still
This is not good at all.
Pride of Detroit, SB Nation's Lions Blog
If they don't score a TD here
My TV is going off
True....
…..But he had a false start on 1st down…..Not saying pass was bad…Saying penalty was huge there

Unsportsmanlike conduct on the Lions for running into an official?
WTF
Pride of Detroit, SB Nation's Lions Blog
did the ref say a "non-player ran into an official"??
Official BYB Juju Consultant...now accepting rally creature applications!
Brees' pass to the end zone incomplete
Good coverage that time.
Pride of Detroit, SB Nation's Lions Blog
Staff did last most of the half without throwing a pick
2009 = The start of the Lions Golden Age (We hope).
Brees hits Lance Moore
Ruled incomplete. Just barely. Another flag.
Pride of Detroit, SB Nation's Lions Blog
Everybody is frustrated

Silver lining to the first half?
Staff was only sacked once and we did intercept Brees….that’s about all I got.
by WestsideLionsFan on Sep 13, 2009 2:44 PM EDT reply actions
1 second left, let's get a good heave!
See that arm Staff
We didn't lose the games, we just ran out of time -- Bobby Layne
Yup
Look at the Pittsburgh game. Almost took a pick back for a TD to end the half.
Pride of Detroit, SB Nation's Lions Blog
Totally different situation
I wouldn’t do it in a tight game. A game where your only chance is to put up a lot more points than you have, though? Take the chance.
in hindsight schwartz should of played for a field goal
games moving to fast for Stafford right now, let’s see after halftime
On the bright side, we're only down by 18
We had enough chances to be down by much less than that.
Pride of Detroit, SB Nation's Lions Blog
We've been pretty lucky
2009 = The start of the Lions Golden Age (We hope).
by Hyperion Ecta on Sep 13, 2009 2:48 PM EDT up reply actions
We have to start bringing pressure
Because as of now even 8 guys can’t stop New Orleans.
We didn't lose the games, we just ran out of time -- Bobby Layne
Wonder if we'll see more blitzing from the Lions
Lord knows dropping 7-8 and sending 3-4 wasn’t working so well
by WestsideLionsFan on Sep 13, 2009 2:46 PM EDT reply actions
Who gets the ball first in the 2nd half?
Official BYB Juju Consultant...now accepting rally creature applications!
Joey all over again?
I’ve seen all this before, stuffed run, incomplete pass, check down, punt.
I’d rather see Staff try to make some plays and take his lumps on an int and possibly make a play than to see this conservative BS all over again.
