When they win the Super Bowl, then you can start taking them seriously.

Not exactly playing great football (1st and goal...settled for a field goal), but they're winning. Already doing better than we have in years past!

5-2...go figure.

I'll jump up and down after a couple more wins.

They did a much better job protecting Kitna today, most of the sacks were coverage sacks.

Their death nell will be their secondary against good passing teams. We'll see what happens against Green Bay.

The defense is playing better lately and creating turnovers. Martz is making an effort to run the ball instead of throwing on every down, which will keep our defense off the field for longer periods of time.

Worst 5-2 team I've ever seen.

On the other hand, I am somewhat excited that we are winning.

There are certain teams that you cannot take seriously, even if they have some success for a year or two: Lions, Cardinals, Falcons and Bengals are at the top of my list of such teams.

The Thanksgiving game scares the hell out of me. Green Bay in Detroit. Lots of bad things can happen in that game. And by lots of bad things I'm talking about a repeat of the Sunday night game against the Bears. As long as McCarthy lets Favre be Favre the Packers should be ok.

Dude, they won ON THE ROAD. It's something to be excited about if you know their road record over the past few seasons :p

People told me I was crazy when I picked the Lions to go 9-7 this year...

They won't win their division, and most likely won't make the playoffs, but they're better than most people think.

Glad to see the Bears suck this year, nothing more annoying than Bears fans. :)

Except the Pats, their fans, their bandwagon, and everyone with their lips stuck to their ass. ;)


<-- Hates the pats, can only hope they choke in the playoffs.
