The human race amazes me. The Lions were supposed to be a lousy team this year. Only a few on this board picked them to be a surprise team this year. So when they stumble a little against an awfully good team....they suck. Kitna can lite it up. I do agree he gets frustrated too easily but he's a pretty good QB. They have very good WRs. The offense stutters at times. Not unusual for a team on the rise. The defensive front is good to better than good. The secondary plays tighter than we do more often than we do.

They aren't far from being a pretty good team. The Packers are very real and definitely on our level. Maybe better.

Notice the pass from Kitna to Calvin Johnson for those who say Kitna sux.

Hahaha, remember that 4th and 2 on the goal line when they kicked it instead of going for a TD like the Pats would have, think it'll come back to haunt them? I'm sure Bellitard is going to use it as a reference then next time someone asks him.

what if they didn't make it? they would be WAY worse off. the lions have been moving the ball, the bills weren't doing squat.

If they didn' get it, they would be down 9. I think it was the right decision. Now he has to hope the defense steps up on one more possession.

Too much can happen to make that not necessary. Better to wait until they have to go for the two.

or with the better field position on the kickoff just onside worst case GB gets the ball on their own 45?

all GB run is slants

Troy must be lurking this forum for ideas.

Well bad coaching decisions it seems. If the penalty is enforced on the field goal then they change it to 2 point attempt and only have to go 1 yard. Oh well, they need to stop GB now.
