If DT Kyle Williams misses the game, that will be HUGE for the Lions running game.

CJ HAS to be more than a decoy though.

If he's anything less than 90%, he needs to sit and rest. I want this win, but I'd rather make sure he doesn't end his season trying to beat a team that we should be able to beat without him.

Buffalo has a good defense. I absolutely do not want to lose to Schwartz.

No Riddick.
No Bell

I'm not saying without CJ we lose.....but we'll have a much harder time moving the ball against Buffalo than we did against the Jets.

How bout maybe just use dump offs and screens to bush in place of the running game this week if Buffaloes run d is so good

 

[grandy]

Maybe Reggie Bush will finally have a big game....

Mort just said Caldwell was ready to sit him this week but CJ proved he could go. We'll see how much he plays.

 

[mhughes0021]

go team!

 

[tigermud]

Alright! Two weeks in a row the lions get the ball first after half time, I much prefer that for some reason

 

[grandy]

Good job Ford Field

 

[mhughes0021]

[mhughes0021]

[tigermud]

Alright! Now let's light gym shorts up like an Xmas tree

Alright! Now let's light gym shorts up like an Xmas tree

Hope they drop 3 TDs on this D in the first quarter

Then when the crowd is going crazy, Shorts can turn around and tell the fans to shut the fuck up again.

 

[grandy]

Sigh...

 

[michiganalex]

[atxlion82]

Just another 3 and out.

 

[tigermud]
