They couldn’t cover Sidney Rice, and they couldn’t
stop Brett Favre. Combine that with an offense that
dropped passes and a big fumble to start the second half, and it all come out as another Lions loss, this time to the Vikings 27-10 in Minnesota. “You see the progress and see ...

Count me as one of the optimists that
thought we would see significant improvement over last season’s
debacle in terms of wins and losses. It’s obvious now that the Lions will not be a competitive team this year, but that four-letter word, hope, is crawling back into the picture. All hope for ...

This week’s evaluation of Matthew Stafford’s play was

Running back Kevin Smith (shoulder) did not practice
on Wednesday, Mlive.com reports. Smith is the teams leading
rusher with 393 yards on the ground with three touchdowns. Next on the list is Maurice Morris, who has just 106 yards, so losing Smith vs the Seahakws would be a big blow.

UGH. Every Lions fan knows the Lions had
the opportunity to take a big step forward yesterday.
A win shows progress and puts 0-16 one step further into the rearview mirror. A win keeps the attention on how bad the Rams are and the Lions move into the relative obscurity of 2-5. No more punch ...

Before the season began, a friend of mine
offered me a pair of his season tickets to
whatever game I wanted to see. I chose the game against the Rams, since in my opinion, I figured it was the game least likely to result in a depressing drive back home to Lansing. Apparently, I miscalculated. ...

The Lions have had some drives into Rams
territory but have only a flukey safety to show
for it. On the defensive side, the Lions have been able to get off the field, and only some special teams trickeration allowed the Rams into the enzone. Still, its a gloomy bunch here at Ford Field as the ...

Oshiomogo Atogwe plays safety for the St. Louis
Rams, but according to Wikipedia he grew up across
the Detroit River in Windsor, Onterio. He apparently ensured that the Rams would have a cheering section at Ford Field by bringing his old school’s football team to the game today. I surmise ...

Pregame warmups are going on now. All three
Lions quarterbacks are warming up, and it does not
appear that either Stafford or Culpepper are favoring a leg. Aaron Brown and Derrick Williams are taking the kick and punt return warmups. The wide receivers are warming up now. No sign of Calvin ...

The Lions-Rams matchup this week is a meeting
of two teams still trying to find themselves. Both
teams have given up big numbers to opponents all year, so avoid either team defense like the plague. On the other hand, because the Rams and Lions defenses rank 30th and 31st in points per game ...

Detroit’s rookie quarterback practiced every day this week,
so it would seem that he had no setbacks
on the recovery of his knee. Therefore, Matthew Stafford is expected to be back under center this Sunday. His supposed number one target, on the other hand, was very limited in practice this ...

more time to heal for Calvin Johnson, Matthew Stafford, Larry Foote, Daunte Culpepper and a host of other Lions players. Who does what in practice over the next few days will be an indication of who will be ...
