We have a lot of work to do with a lot of issues that we have to deal with this next week to go on the road to Lambeau (Field) to win for the first time since 1991.

Half time comment: Week Five isn’t going well for the Lions, although going by the half time score board thing ain’t as bad as they might be. It clearly shows them just eight points adrift of last season’s NFL Super Bowl champion, Pittsburgh Steelers,

The Lions end a 19 game winless streak stretching back to December 23, 2007 when they picked up their last victory, defeating the Kansas City Chiefs, 25-20.

I’m looking forward to the Lions-Redskins game this afternoon. After last week’s loss to the Vikings I feel confident the Lions can continue their improvement [...]

Okay. That’s not a great start. Marcus Coulston just had cocktails in our endzone. Seven down and only three minutes off the clock. Oh well, at least we get to see Matt Stafford early.

The NFL currently projects 80% of blackouts will be lifted, significantly more than the 59% that were lifted during the 1990s when a similar if less severe financial crisis occurred.

With the Lions announcing Matt Stafford as their starting QB questions were raised as to the ongoing status of veteran, Daunte Culpepper. More than a few cynics mentioned that he’d be unlikely to stay around.
