No Waddle either. Tate, Riddick, Fuller, and Bell have to step up. This is another chance for Broyles to do something.

different teams' jerseys in the stands.
Yep, this IS just like a Falcons' home game.
October 26th, 2014 at 10:11 AM ^
The Falcons have the worst home field "advantage" in the NFL. It's a city of transplants, most of whom keep their allegiance to their original hometown team. In the home loss to Chicago a couple of weeks ago Ryan had to call a timeout due to crowd noise.
Seeing people in, as an example, Steelers jerseys attending a game between the Falcons and (not the Steelers) is pretty common.
October 26th, 2014 at 11:19 AM ^
It really isnt...when the Falcons are good they have great homefield advantage. Detroit shouldnt be talking. That is a city of frontrunning fans
October 26th, 2014 at 12:43 PM ^
Are you serious? The very existence of Lions fans disproves your point.
October 26th, 2014 at 3:16 PM ^
shit aint much better with the Falcons but they have just as many fans....i just think lions fans are some of the biggest whiners in the NFL...they never stop with the "woe is me" attitude.
October 26th, 2014 at 9:41 AM ^
Love that the Brits just wear any NFL team jersey to the game. Lots of Aaron Rodgers jersey's in the stands. Just like people at soccer matches here. Well I'm going to see Manchester United and Real Madrid so I'll wear my Chelsea jersey!
October 26th, 2014 at 9:45 AM ^
Someone needs to make a play.
October 26th, 2014 at 9:45 AM ^
I can't believe they want to put a team over there.
October 26th, 2014 at 9:46 AM ^
Horrible first series.
October 26th, 2014 at 9:55 AM ^
Like yesterday?
October 26th, 2014 at 9:47 AM ^
Stafford and the offense better come to play today or this will be a long day.
October 26th, 2014 at 9:46 AM ^
Yikes, did Atlanta even have a 3rd down on that drive?
October 26th, 2014 at 9:48 AM ^
That will be it for Atlanta.
October 26th, 2014 at 10:23 AM ^
not so much.
October 26th, 2014 at 9:50 AM ^
I literally just realized that I set my alarm for 6am for THAT.

Anybody have a link to watch the game online? Can't get in front of a tv. Or to a bar. Or to a Chili's.
October 26th, 2014 at 10:01 AM ^
My anitvirus software got lit up like a Michigan secondary with that link. Any other links? Preferably one that won't give my laptop crabs?
October 26th, 2014 at 10:05 AM ^
I just google streaming sports and find a link.
I don't think one is any better than another.
October 26th, 2014 at 10:07 AM ^
adblocker and ghostery. Use them.
October 26th, 2014 at 9:56 AM ^
Flat and uninspired.
October 26th, 2014 at 9:57 AM ^
He's not bad, and he shows signs of brilliancy, he's just too inconsistent for having as many weapons as he does (when everyone's healthy).
My dream proposal, in which I have know insight as to if this would even be possible (haha), is trade him to somebody for a first round draft pick and pick up Marcus Mariota!
October 26th, 2014 at 9:58 AM ^
No like know, and I know that is not how u spell no. My bad :)
October 26th, 2014 at 10:00 AM ^
You're forgiven, but only if your doing as well as I am after attempting to drink away what I saw yesterday.
October 26th, 2014 at 10:04 AM ^
You're serious? First of all, nobody wants to trade for his contract and second of all where are all of these weapons? Golden Tate is the biggest star on the offense right now. The average person couldn't name a single person on the offense that hasn't been hurt most of the season.

And did you NOT see the part where I said "WHEN EVERYONE IS HEALTHY". Jesus Christ.
October 26th, 2014 at 10:13 AM ^
I know that because come on.. You're the one that said he has "many weapons" and I stated what is basically fact. This idea that he has had weapons to work with is a myth. I'm not making excuses for his inconsistent play but I'd wait until he has a semblance of an NFL team around him before deciding we should trade him for a draft pick. People don't realize how difficult it is to come across an even competent QB in the NFL.

Did you miss the part where I said my DREAM SCENARIO. As in its not likely to happen, but I can DREAM.
October 26th, 2014 at 10:16 AM ^
I don't know what you're getting so defensive about. I didn't call you an idiot or anything. I just don't understand how that's a dream scenario. It's OK that it's your dream. I'm not mad at you or anything!

but I can't see the posts that you are responding to. It looks like you are a Sybilian meltdown.
October 26th, 2014 at 10:26 AM ^
Yeah... Don't know what happened to the other guy. Basically he said the Lions should trade Stafford in hopes of drafting Mariota. My response was mostly to his comment about Stafford having so many weapons, which in reality hasn't been true. The offense is about as patchwork as it gets.

Defense has to play a lot better.
October 26th, 2014 at 10:02 AM ^
It's too easy running and throwing.
October 26th, 2014 at 10:03 AM ^
Inept offense, bad defense..just an ugly performance. Caldwell did not have this team prepared to play.
October 26th, 2014 at 10:08 AM ^
It's still very very early and this is a team that plays well from behind. Take it easy
October 26th, 2014 at 10:10 AM ^
Is that Dierdorf in the booth?
October 26th, 2014 at 10:12 AM ^
I'm not denying that. It is a terrible start. But it's not over.
October 26th, 2014 at 10:13 AM ^
He also just had surgery so he missed yesterday's game.
In other words, no.
October 26th, 2014 at 10:09 AM ^
has it that Brady Hoke Skyped an inspirational speech into the Lions pre-game locker room.
October 26th, 2014 at 10:13 AM ^
We're fucked.
October 26th, 2014 at 10:25 AM ^
I'm assuming he stressed the importance of practice and execution in practice.
October 29th, 2014 at 3:04 PM ^
He gave them the clap?
October 26th, 2014 at 10:12 AM ^
OL sucks again and suddenly the Falcons OL is a dominant group. To much english lager for the Lions obviously.
