OT: Open NFL Thread/Detroit Lions Thread

Submitted by Michigan4Life on

Thanks to the Bengals game blacking out, I can watch the Lions/Bears game on tv!  whooooo.

 

In other news, I'm expecting a Lions loss since Drew Stanton is the starting QB.  Stanton is pretty bad, but you already knew this.

That is a tough pick all around. I guess I would go with Crabtree, but I don't think any of them will be racking up too many points. I have to play a questionable Mike Williams (Sea) because Brandon Marshall is out.

As a Bears fan, I originally thought Week 1 revenge for the Lions + Bears getting more national exposure after beating Philly + Bears looking ahead to New England next week = Lions win.  However, throwing in Drew Stanton as a variable certainly helps the Bears' chances.

I would be lion if I said I could bear to watch this game. Maybe I'll go with the Finacee to pick out some Cutler-y for our registry. I'm thinking of taking the staff ford I get though my work, but it seems to always break down, espially on a steep Hill. Best to leave it be, wouldn't want to out Fox myself. Anyway, I hope Stanton will be all right; he Pettigrew on me during the exhibition games. Even so, as I told my old drill instructor from ft. Campbell when asked if he had an NFL future, "No Suh!" (When he asked about my sudden southern drawl, I told him to "Backus off!" and left without even wishing him a Cherilus holiday season.)
