So, where are all the jokers who said the KC game showed our WRs are mediocre without Jennings, or without Rodgers?

No Jennings. No Rodgers. No matter. The Lions couldn’t cover them all day.

I’m still worried about the defense. I know we were missing Wood and the Claymaker, but the bottom line is that we have no pass rush to speak of. I recall one play down by the end zone where 98 was on an island with the left tackle while Stafford was passing out of the end zone. There was a good few feet between the LT and the LG and no one outside the tackle. CJ Wilson just stands there playing patty cake. He made no move whatsoever. I’m like “REALLY? That’s the best you’ve got?” A good pass rush will cover up a lot of the mistakes that the secondary makes. I miss Jenkins and Nick Collins.

Jim Schwartz is a whiny bitch and that’s why the Lions will never go very far. I LOVED his half time comments to whatever sideline reporter there was “we need to get a few calls” as if it’s the ref’s fault.

as far as the playoffs go, There’s not a defense out there that makes me concerned. Ideally, SF beats the snot out of NO and we play them at Lambeau in freezing conditions. I do worry aobut getting in a shoot out with NY and NO, however.

Now that Jarrett Bush has turned into a serviceable player Pat Lee has kindly stepped into the roll of worst player on that team that should never see the field.

Great job all season to dedicate the time to write. Really appreciate the in depth analysis (packer games) that you can’t find anywhere
