Detroit Lions - Team Notes

You probably shouldn't cover Boldin -- who passed Andre Johnson for 10th all-time in receptions Sunday -- with a safety. "It was a mismatch we were seeing early on in the game," Boldin said.

IF THE REGULAR SEASON ENDED TODAY...

LIONS WOULD BE WISE TO AVOID BUCS.

Bill Barnwell thinks Tampa Bay would pose the biggest problem to the Lions in the postseason.

Lions coach Jim Caldwell said Matthew Stafford will play next week and that he would not address other questions about his finger injury.

Jim Caldwell on whether or not the Lions playbook will change due to Matthew Stafford's finger injury: "We'll see."

Jim Caldwell said officials told him "they said they could have gotten it wrong" with Graham Glasgow hands to the face call.

COULD JIM BOB COOTER TAKE OVER RAMS?
The Lions' offensive coordinator is sure to be a hot candidate this offseason after molding Matthew Stafford into an MVP candidate.
Mike Sando thinks Cooter's offense would be a good fit in LA.
