Of course that is great. Even though we learned the hospital trip was precautionary its still very good to know that nothing serious happened to a good young man whos career did not even start yet.. however that was still a great play by Burzinsky have to be happy for a no offer walk on who worked hard enough to battle for a starting spot on a top 10 team

At the 3:00 minute mark, the snap count is almost immediately after the head raises. I hope that changes or get ready for the bull rushes.

It seemed like they did that alllll the time last year too. I was hoping they would figure it out because it is so easy for teams to just pull their ears back and rush in when they know when the ball is going to be snapped. Gotta learn to mix it up.

that he wants his practices closed, but if you are trying to practice with distractions you need to make it a public practic and let "real people" cheer and actually distract the players.  How else are you going to get a game type atmosphere?  Not playing videos on the scoreboard, that's for sure.  I understand they practiced in a different facility, but it seems silly to me to expect distractions when it's only the team at Ford Field.

I'm excited to see Cam Gordon out there at SAM this season.  I bet he gets alot of playing time now that he's healthy when they put Ryan at the line.  He should be great against spread teams like Ohio and NW .

that Howe jersey is that it was in fact a jersey Gordie Howe himself wore for many many games.

And now to bring this back on topic.  Gordie Howe played for the RedWings a professional sports team in the city of Detroit,  The same city where the Lions play,  whose facility was just  made available to our Michigan Wolverines.

Ha, I pulled it off in only two degress of separation.  Suck it Kevin Bacon!

There was another example of them running the pop pass. They clearly did not take advantage of the big cushions that corners were giving them last year. Al was completely against it during the season and would not field any questions about it. I'm pretty sure after this season he watched tape and realized what a big mistake it was not to run it.
