Detroit Lions - Team Notes

Matthew Stafford against normal rushes Sunday: 80 percent completions, two pressures. Stafford against the blitz? 47 percent completion, six sacks, 12 pressures. First time back-to-back six-sack games since Weeks 7 & 8 of 2015.

Jim Caldwell is saying "check the report" on all Matthew Stafford injury questions. If the info isn't on the report? "You're out of luck," Caldwell said. Caldwell did say he's sore like a lot of other players.

Jim Caldwell on his offense: "At this point, we need to improve on everything." He also include defense and special teams on that.

Jim Caldwell: "We just can't have the kind of lapse that we had in the middle." Believes his team played well at the start and end.

Jim Caldwell told as a preface to a question: "This might be a weird question." Caldwell: "There's no such thing. [pauses] In this room."

Matthew Stafford wasn't spotted in the locker room Monday (not a huge surprise). Jim Caldwell said earlier Monday that Stafford was "sore," like other players, but offered no other updates. Backup quarterback Jake Rudock said Stafford was "good" on Monday and that they watched film as normal.

Matthew Stafford on WJR Radio in Detroit on if he'll play Sunday: "I don't know. We'll see." Wouldn't say much about his injury but said he is driving home (he hurt his leg/ankle). Said Jim Caldwell will handle all injury questions. Was in a good mood though.

Lions QB Matthew Stafford suffered a sprained ankle and a hamstring injury in Sunday's loss to the Panthers, source says. Plan is for Stafford to see how much he can do in practice this week and try to be ready to play Sunday in New Orleans.

Pride Of Detroit Lions PODcast doesn?t think this Lions offense can get much lower. 70 minutes.
The Lions got beat in every phase of the game, but some worse than others.

This week on the PODcast
If there were flaws with the defense, the Panthers exposed it pretty quickly.

Boy we were just talking about fool?s gold, huh? I guess I deserve that.

This offensive line is going to get Matthew Stafford killed.

The offense spent nearly half the game looking for a first down. This isn?t good, and there?s some serious issues that need to be addressed.

Is it time to sell stock on Jim Bob Cooter? Why isn?t his offensive scheme working as well as last year?

Eric Ebron had another woeful day and I have to personally eat crow.

We unveil a new segment: Happy Thoughts.

Ryan has a Rage Corner about Odell Beckham Jr.

The reviews are mad at us, and we get mad back (hey guys this is your warning that things might be ?political? for like two minutes or whatever).

Mailbag makes Ryan mad again, but this time about McDonalds.
