For those blaming Joe Lombardi on the failed two-point conversion, you can put your pitchforks down (temporarily):

Stafford said he checked into the run on the failed 2-point conversion, didn't want to burn a timeout despite a tough look for run

Ezekiel Ansah and Larry Warford suffered injuries in the game and did not return. Jim Caldwell did not provide an update on their statuses after the game.

Matt Prater played Sunday despite suffering from an illness.

Please, please, please, please, please, please, please:

DeAndre Levy sounded optimistic he could return this week. Will know Tuesday or Wednesday.

Sunday's loss was the Lions' first home-opener defeat since 2010.

This can't be good:

Broncos CB Bradley Roby on the Lions offense: "We pretty much knew what they were gonna do, and they did it."

Okay, you can bring those pitchforks back up.
