To be honest

If you told me last week that the score by the 4th quarter was 38-27, I wouldn’t be too disappointed. Better than 45-7.

depends on your scoring

in general if you break 100 you’re ok

Bell with another big run

Down to the Lions’ 31. Pathetic defense again.

Last year I won a Yahoo Survivor league by picking the Lions' opponent every week....

I really don’t want to have to do that again. The first 6 games look rough, but I’m expecting us to go 4-6 the last 10 games.

Brees

Man, this reminds me of Tecmo Super Bowl. Easy offense the first 5 or so weeks. Then it gets harder.

To hell with moral victories—but at least this game has been interesting. Don’t remember the return game mattering since EDDIE.

SNOIL!!! (lions flags running out and seated on the backwards side of the field).

I said when was the last time Brees threw for 6 TDs.....

in the same comment that I said they will not score on the ground…..

I was not overly cocky…..just figured it was unlikely that he would throw 6 TD passes….and I was wrong.

by KDawg on Sep 13, 2009 4:18 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Don't forget this one KDawg
My prediction:
Lions – 24
Saints – 27

It will come down to a late FG. I think it could easily go the other way too…..if we control the time of possession.

We had a bunch of chances that weren’t capatilized on, as well as defensvie lapses. Schwartz will no doubt have alot of fun with this game film

> Little to no Pettigrew, he would’ve helped out Staff alot because he’s a big target. Kind of like a security blanket.

> The Secondary, wow just wow. Buchanon can’t come back quick enough

> Calvin didn’t get the ball enough. They tried to throw to him, but most didn’t connect. That needs to change. On a team with little talent, you need to take advantage your advantages.

> Kevin Smith didn’t have the game we needed him to have.

> Refs are garbage, all of them

> Yes, Drew Brees really is that good

> Our Run defense wasn’t all that terrible at first, then we let Mike Bell look like Steven Jackson

> There’s gonna be alot of growing pains with Staff

> Damn losing really makes you hungry.

I was trying to distribute the Kool-Aid freely before the game this week.....

I really believed that the Lions could win this game…..sorry if my optimism got anyone else’s hopes up….what a let down…..

I gotta say, it did seem strange

But I didn’t have high hopes for the game, I always thought we would lose, it just wasn’t a good matchup. However, I think we did a solid job, we were competitive and we showed that we could score points and cause turnovers.

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