We've won 3 times in Detroit, not 2

[Boyzmamacita]

I keep reading that we're 2-8 in Detroit, but I recall us blowing them out in Detroit on three occasions. Once in the 80s with Dorsett and Walker ('86?). Once in the 90s with the Triplets (92?) and once in the 00s with Quincy throwing 3 TDs to Glenn (03?). So the mediots got one wrong again.

The recurring theme is BLOWOUT. If we don't pummell them, we end up losing. So you know what the formula is for tomorrow's game.

We also beat them in 1975.

Thanks windward. I became a fan in '78 so that was just before my time. I didn't look it up. I was going purely by memory. Anyway, it's amazing how the media botches information.

Yeah, I recall the one in '86. I believe it was the 2nd game of the season. The Cowboys had both Herschel and Tony D, and they both had big days running the ball in the Silverdome.

I remember that loss like it was yesterday.

But THEN 1993 happened
