Is it weird that I would be happy for either team to win this game?
Too bad, I fell that way about both teams.

I wish I could go back in time to the preseason game thread
I would make a “bold” prediction that the bengals would be in the playoffs then everyone would worship me as the second coming

You build on failure. You use it as a stepping stone. Close the door on the past. You don't try to forget the mistakes, but you don't dwell on it. You don't let it have any of your energy, or any of your time, or any of your space.
-Johnny Cash
There is a conspiracy against Detroit.
I love watching the Wings play the Maple Leafs on Hockey Night in Canada. Well, the Red Wings are playing Toronto tonight on CBC. I’m convinced the networks knew how much this meant to me and purposely created a scheduling conflict.

I feel so bad for Schaub
they FINALLY get there and without him. Man they’d be so lethal with him and Johnson healthy.
The boys are back in town!
they haven't really played as well when Schaub (and Leinart) went down

It might be a good think for Schaub
He has potential to be a top 5-8qb. With a full off season hating that he did not get to play. Might be just enough to push him to the next level.

oh yeah sorry, not saying I think he'll Lynch the Saints, just that I think he could run the way he runs and do it well today.
it would go a long way to our offense clicking…3-4 yards on 1st down would be huge.

Yeah definitely
I like our chances a lot better if we can run for over 100.

I wonder what the W/L split is when we rush for over 100 yards vs. under 100...

Dalton is a pretty smart QB

Yeah I'm kind of pissed that they can dismantle everything
Get rid of their best corner, franchise QB, best WR, and then they hit on Dalton and AJ green and make the playoffs.

i just had a random thought..drew stanton or mark sanchez? haha. i think stanton..fuck sanchez.
anyway, this will be the night of the cat. bengals and lions are gonna roar! woooo
I have myself convinced that we're going to lose this game
Just so that if we actually lose I won’t be as devestated. But I’m still hoping like hell that we win somehow.
Formerly WestSideLionsFan. Fan of all Detroit sports teams.
You know I really don't have a problem with Mark Sanchez.
What is there to hate on him for? Matthew was a higher pick, hes the better QB, and we are in the playoffs. Not worth it.

I think people mainly hate him because everyone was saying he was better than Staff
That debate is pretty well settled now. The only thing left to hate him for is that he’s a pretty boy and he plays for the obnoxious Jets.
Formerly WestSideLionsFan. Fan of all Detroit sports teams.
Well let him be a "pretty boy" who might have lost his starting job
He really doesn’t even need to be mentioned here anymore. Unless we are playing him

Go Houston
Always liked them, Schaub to the other Johnson is a lethal combination, and I love the underdog story of a 3rd string QB winning a playoff game

Bengals I think
Just because they have a lot of Millen-esque ineptitude in their front office and I’d like to see them overcome that and make a playoff run.

Evening everyone
Not sure how much of this game I’ll watch, I don’t usually get into football unless I’m with other people or watching the Lions. Right now I’m doing neither.
You build on failure. You use it as a stepping stone. Close the door on the past. You don't try to forget the mistakes, but you don't dwell on it. You don't let it have any of your energy, or any of your time, or any of your space.
-Johnny Cash
And that's cool, I'm not going to leave the thread
But I can’t high-five you guys when something cool happens.

Nice.
If we lose today I will probably root for the Saints the rest of the way. I like a lot of their players and they have a solid well run organization.
Agreed
I’d have to pretend to root for the Patriots (my mother is a Michigan grad and in love with Brady) but in my heart, I’ll be supporting the Saints.
But let’s hope they lose today.

were gettin excited down here in texas. lots of lions fans gathering for food, drinks, and playoff football. doesnt get any better than that! C’mon Lions! make the Pride proud!
second half predictions anyone?
I am predicting the lack of challenges is going to bite Cincinnati in the ass.
I still think Cinci wins.
BTW, that was one of the sickest pick 6s I have ever saw.
