The Calvin Johnson Incompletion

[Saluki]

Lions defense dominated the Bears. Mistakes affected them early, Lions killer D dominated late.

I dunno about dominated, they forced 4 turnovers and played great in short yardage, but Cutler still had over 300 yards passing and a late TD. I don't know about killer D but they did do a solid job vs the run.

I agree, I think the D did well in short yardage. Part of that is the play of the defensive line, part of that is Chicago's piss poor offensive line. Either way, defense looked good, but sloppy against the pass. Secondary still needs major help.

Also, I think Stanton's ability to get out of the pocket should be a factor in deciding the starting Quarterback. I think it will be Hill against Philly, but once he is lit up, I can see Stanton in for Week 3 or 4.

Everyone who knows about the Lions knows the secondary is atrocious. We have one guy who could be considered competent at the moment at that is Louis Delmas. Although to be honest I thought Chris Houston and CC Brown did ok while Wade was awful. However we have little depth so any team with 3 decent receivers will run circles around us.

Stanton will never start the guy is a bum.
