Submitted by Maison Bleue on

Just when I thought the Lions had a real shot at finally winning in Green Bay... Those chances have taken a huge blow with this news. LINK

Man, that's unfortunate.

But in all seriousness, lions fans, don't let this give you an excuse to downplay things if you lose today. We won the Super Bowl with 15 players on IR. Next man up!

cause I was hoping for this game to be a good challenge for us. No offense but your backups are a joke.

Kris Durham has played more snaps, has more targets, and more catches than Broyles. He may be the better fantasy play if you are into that sort of thing.

Hopefully, Calvin is back out there as soon as possible - I had nearly forgotten that it has been about three years since he last missed a game. Most teams would love to have some not only that good but also that reliable. It will be interesting to see how they line up at WR now - do we see Reggie in the slot a little bit in addition to his RB duties?

Alright, question for you all. Who would you plug in in your flex now. Joique or Broyles? I am playing what is easily the best team in my league this week and am hoping plugging in Broyles as a flyer works but Bell has been productive and it's PPR.

It's not so much that they're losing that bothers me. It's in Green Bay. It's the look on all the Lions' faces that seems like they're totally cool with losing, that drives me up the wall.
