Really can't see this game going to well for us. Our secondary is bad and unless Cliff Avril is in the backfield on every play, we're going to lose this game.

Drew Brees will finish where he left off last season, passing wise.

We MIGHT get lucky and only lose by 21.

0-16 Pt 2.

Call it wishful thinking or whatever you want, but I could see this game being closer than most people think. Maybe, just maybe the Lions will squeek out with a win.

I don't see it happening lol. The Saints passing attack is too much for the Lions.

I think Detroit could actually put up a good match against them. This may sound crazy but for some reason the Lions play a decent game on opening day. This is how they look since 2003 on opening day.

2003 - ARI 24 @ DET 42 W
2004 - DET 20 @ CHI 16 W
2005 - GB 3 @ DET 17 W
2006 - SEA 9 @ DET 6 L
2007 - DET 36 @ OAK 21 W
2008 - DET 21 @ ATL 34 L

We'll put up a fight, but we'll lose..

42-14 Saints

I don't see our offense struggling too much, but they'll get outplayed by the Saints.

[Primetime]

If Stafford gets the start, I see him only being mediocre against a poor defense. Saints roll all the way to an easy win.

I didn't even know they scored 21 somehow when we played them last year..lol. Lions played horrible that game.

[kmanharris]

lions with an upset

edit: Lions come in ready to play and the Saints overlook them. Reason why they win

Every team they beat were worse than them in the season. So, they probably should've beat them.

drew brees is going to go apeshit on this secondary.
