Kris Durham...I told you so! : )

Earlier this year, I wrote a post saying how I wanted to see Kris Durham start opposite Calvin Johnson because it would give the Lions two big receivers who would be matchup nightmares for a defense. You guys ripped me apart. Well yesterday, Durham confirmed my belief as he made several good catches for the Lions giving Stafford another big target. Two bonuses to the equation is that Brandon Pettigrew is coming back to life, holding on to the ball and making plays and that great free agent pick Joseph Fauria! To quote the great former head coach Buddy Ryan, all Fauria does is catch touchdown passes! That's just fine with me! All those guys are 6-5 or taller and can catch the ball. Even when Nate Burleson does come back, I would start Durham and make Nate the 3rd wideout. And would the Lions please get rid of Patrick Edwards! He's totally useless! Everytime the Lions throw him the ball he either drops it or has the DB knock it away! Like I said, totally useless! Ryan Broyles better step his game up too or else he'll be on the streets! But back to the original topic, the Lions have found something special in their "Georgia Connection" with Stafford, Durham and Calvin!
