GOTTA Love It...But Lots to Fix!

The Lions coming back today was huge! HUGE! I would've never thought it possible when we were down 27-3, especially with how we were playing to that point. Romo had to let us back in, which he did. And our guys are damn good enough to take advantage of such an opportunity. WE ARE 3-0 ON THE ROAD! We've played two games in a row in hostile environments, while down huge at halftime....and won! Calvin Johnson has 8 TDs! (Suck on that, Cris Carter.....I hope CJ gets 2 more next week and passes him!) The offensive line did not allow a sack against the sack leader, DeMarcus Ware, or any of his teammates. Pretty good response to the Vikings game and Jared Allen.

With all of that said, we have so, so much we need to shore up. We cannot be coming out early and allowing the big stage, the elements, and whatever else to create jitters and flat play. Can you imagine how we'd be playing if it were all four quarters like we've been playing in the second half?

Either way.....I LOVE MY LIONS!! JIM SCHWARTZ IS INCREDIBLE! MEGATRON IS INCREDIBLE! STAFFORD....BEST....SUH.....CHRIS HOUSTON.....CARPENTER (FOR STEPPING IN BIG FOR DURANT).....AND THE REST....HUGE!!

Enjoy this, but we have to stay grounded. The Lions are lucky to be 4-0. And to keep this up the rest of the season, they have to play more consistent.

I can not believe we changed the entire momentum here. Such a great win. I think these huge first half deficits were directly the fault of no running game so we abandoned it. Obviously Best can not run north but i am guessing that Harrison can not run either or they would play him. We have to fix this run game or the teams like Minn or Dallas are just going to tee off on us and distort Staffs rythem.

Agreed

Lot’s of room for improvement but exciting none the less.

How big is the Bears game now.

They are drooling over the possibility of putting that first L on us.

I know we are going to lose some games but anybody but them. Please God!

And I don’t know if it’s the tv or what but Detroit hasn’t seemed anywhere near as loud as the domes in minny and Dallas. Here’s hoping the fans bring the pain

I know a lot of NFL teams would love to have all the problems that we have.

Come on Twon, outside of the Packers, what other NFL teams don’t have more “problems” than us?

Problems are good

Improvement is good, having things to improve and be undefeated, that’s awesome.

Just because were 4 and 0, and were all giving serious props to the Lions being where they are, and sure all teams have problems.

Doesn’t now mean were to stick our heads in the sand and blow roses out of our ass. They know the issues they have also, but to just sit here and not be able to discuss the SHITTY starts because their 4 and 0 is ridiculous.
