Has Cason been playing better lately?  I remeber him having a nice showing in the Packer game too.

Ah well... points is points

Vikings offense is rolling on us.  

We need a turnover right now.

I looked it up.  The Lions pass defense (based on YPG given) is ranked second to worst.  No team has passers complete against them at better than 65% excpet the Lions who allow opposing QB's to complete passes at a 70% clip.  That's what I call soft coverage.

Unreal... 103 yard kickoff return.

Time to see if jump balls to Williams will work again.

Can't blame Hanson though... he's getting a little old.

It's going to take a stop by defense right now to stay in this game.  If the Vikings hammer us down the field again and score then it's pretty much over.

No more jump balls for Williams... it looks like he hurt his knee.

-Quarterback is OK but can he take another season of punnishment next year?

-Recievers are very good.
-Good kicker, good punter.

How much can you really fix in the next draft?

I don't think the Lions are any closer to becomming a good team.  The huge advantage in turn overs that the lions had in the first 8 games were the difference in winning those games... and turnovers are mostly a fluke statistic.

I'm back on the bandwagon for getting rid of Millen.

They could be on their way to owning a record here.  Again... that's some soft soft coverage.

Now that about sums it up.

Next comes untelevised home games due to the stadium not selling out.  

Besides playing terribly the Lions are also giving up.  This really means the season is over.  The Lions are mentally defeated too.  

An entire half of football left and they flat out give up.  The 'D' is pretty much just going through the motions.

The refs take 6 seconds off the clock... trying to end the missery a little quicker.

Kitna sacked.  Giving up.

Lions lose field position and punt.

I understand that when you are playing from behind you have to pass the ball but isn't that only true if you think you can still win the game?

The Lions aren't winning this game... not once in a thousand alternate universes.  Why not try just putting a balanced offense on the field and running some plays?  Only good things could come from it.

Just sayin.

Wow... how about a some salt for those gaping wounds?

Vikings get their just deserts and Fisher picks off a pass.  Karma is a bitch boys.

Tavaris Jackson is passing at a 77% clip.

Furrey makes catch, hit ground, lays there a minute, flips ball away, no whistle, Vikings pick up the ball and run it back to the Lions 5 yardline.  Kitna makes the takle... sort of.

Replay clearly shows that a defenders foot kicks Furrey in the ass while he's down but the official review goes on and on for like 10 minutes.

And...... Furrey called down by contact... no fumble.  The crowd boos loudly.  What a bunch of tools.  Evidentally they want blood.  I don't think the Lions have much more to give.  

We appologise to the citizens of Rome.

False start.  2nd and 8.

Pass Pass Pass.  Lions now have 2 rushes for 1 yard.  

Kitna throws it away to avoid a sack.  It get caught some how for 5 yards.

3rd and 8.

Pass... wide open... hit in chest... Calvin Johnson drops it.

Lions go for it... 4th and 3.

Pass to Johnson... he catches it this time... 1st down.

Kitna pounded while throwing the ball. Was his arm going forward?  Only another time out and review can tell.  

Being pissed off and bored at the same time is sort of a new combination of emotions.  Thanks Lions.

Johnson

Anouncers are befuddled as to what happened as are several million viewers.

Game continues... More unsportsmanlike behavior by the Lions.  They get flagged.  15 yard penalty.

4th and 31... I feel sick.

Play is stopped.  Nobody knows what down it is... aparrently it's 3rd down.

Pass. to Cason... Kitna goes down...  Limps off.

3rd and forever.  Lions punt.

Don't be surprised if Kitna doesn't return.  

They now have over 200 rushing yards.  

More than 200x what the Lions have.

Something in the back of my throat tastes like breakfast.

Lions hold up against a few runs and Vikings punt with 4 minutes left.  Touchback.

Lets see what JT can do.

Correction ... Lions have 1 yard on the 3 rushes.
.33 yard per rush.  Impressive.

Duckett for another 4.

Pitch to Duckett for zero gain.

3rd and 6.  Two minute warning.

Well it seems that Osullivan is only trusted to make handoffs.  This should really help him develop as a quaterback.

The first rush surprised the Vikings.
The second rush... what?  Two in a row? 4 yards aint bad.  Three rushes in a row?  Okay... that's enough... stuffed.

Osullivan in the shotgun.  Drops it.  Punt Time!

Nick Harris pins it inside the 10 and establishes himself as the Lions player of the game.

I'm outa here.  Gotta go clean up around the toilet.
