Lions v. Titans Open Thread

Good game to watch to get your mind off of things. Most of us are rooting for the Lions, but it's nice to see Mike Martin already make a stand at the line of scrimmage. Mikel Lesure looks solid so far. Lions having trouble in the passing game and can't get anything in the endzone. It's a good thing they have Hanson, who has made 3 FG's and is now punting for the team.

The Titans had a succesful lateral on a punt return that went for a TD, and a 60 yard TD pass from Jake Locker. Lions don't look terrible, but they certainly don't look like a playoff team.

Ours plays for the Chargers. This guy is Ryan, a DB. But not a common enough name you'd think there'd be two in the NFL.

He had a nice 3rd down stop on Leshoure as well, although I'm not sure why the lions run the ball on 3rd down. Have they ever converted a 3rd or 4th in short on the ground?

Edit: and a TE strong enough to grip the ball
