I will definitely take the Lions being 7-2 right now. I was just impressed that the Dolphins tried to do something akin to "The Play" save for a squib kick in order to keep the game alive for them. 

Meanwhile, the 49ers have managed to get to overtime. This is a good thing, of course, because it gives Jim a moment to collect all the play sheets that just rained down on him.

that will cost them. This game should have been over, but Stafford's underthrown ball after the INT of Tannehill resulted in a denied chance for at three. Then there was the blocked FG that lead to a Miami TD. Combined this was a 16 pt swing in the game. The same thing happened in the Buffalo game. Missed field goals, untimely interceptions... this has to stop.

The Lions defense is legitimately good and Stafford is clutch. So I don't want to overstate the problems. But these issues need to be  cleaned up.

Oh and Joe Lombardi is not good at his job.

It's weird to live in a world where the Lions are winning their division and Michigan can barely win (I still feel like we lost yesterday). Remember when everyone loved 2014 because it wasn't 2013?
