- If you missed the story on CBS about Jerome Harrison, you can watch it here:
- After Thursday's game, Matt Schaub had this to say when asked about Ndamukong Suh's kick:
Matt Schaub on Ndamukong Suh and the first quarter incident: "I don't have anything to say about that play -- or that person"
— Lions RapidReports (@CBSLions) November 22, 2012 - I have to agree with Pro Football Focus, which said this on Thursday:
That was easily Suh's best game of the season. Sadly nobody will notice because we'll all be talking about his nutshot on Schaub #Cheap

- In all likelihood, the crappy review/penalty rule that cost the Lions a touchdown on Thursday will be reviewed and changed by the NFL next offseason.
- Louis Delmas was unable to finish Thursday's game because of soreness. Hopefully the extra break in between games will allow him to be ready to go next week.
- Tony Scheffler dislocated his left pinky on Thursday.
-
Jeff Backus said after Thursday's game that he did everything he could to try and play against the Texans, but his injury just didn't allow that to happen.
- As noted by Tim Twentyman, Backus' absence ended a streak of 236 consecutive games going back to when he played at Michigan.
- This is a pretty amazing stat:
#Lions Jeff Backus & Dominic Raiola had started 166 games together - the most by any offensive linemen teammates since the 1970 merger.
— Paula Pasche (@paulapasche) November 22, 2012 - Before Thursday, the Texans hadn't allowed a single rushing touchdown all season. Mikel Leshoure and Joique Bell each had a rushing TD on Thanksgiving.
- Gunther Cunningham was quite angry during Thursday's game, and he showed off his kicking leg to express his frustration.
- Matthew Stafford passed the 11,000 career passing yards mark on Thursday. He joined Kurt Warner as the only two players to do that in 40 games in NFL history.
- Calvin Johnson became only the seventh player in NFL history to cross the 7,000 receiving yards mark in his first six seasons.
- The Green Bay Packers' Brad Jones was fined $15,750 for his roughing the passer penalty on Stafford last week.
