Week 5: Bears @ Lions, 12:00 Central time FOX

[cbbryan]

Papa Roach is down.

[Soul]

you guys try to imagine what it's like to watch this team every week

 

 

Is it worse than being a SF Giants fan. It has to be terrible.

 

Getting to watch Tim Lincecum every 5 days has to better than the Lions.

 

Plus they're starting to build a good farm system. Conor Gillaspie and Buster Posey will be really good hitters. They also have terrific pitching prospects.

 

Bumgarner is such an awesome name.

 

Umm, wow.

 

Ok, scrap the Giants idea.

 

How about Baltimore Orioles.

 

Replace "Conor Gillaspie and Buster Posey" with "Nick Markakis and Matt Wieters" and you pretty much have the same story.

 

 

The Lions have good players too....................

name em

 

Calvin Johnson, Roy Williams and Ernie Sims basically sums it up.

 

I like Smith, but won't see him too much more today since they're down 31.

[Jon]

Ugh. Be okay, Nick.

 

Almost two years to the day since his senior season-ending injury.

[UMFan83]

Hester really doesn't look the same as a return man.

 

I think its more the special teams being different this year than Hester.

[Cynosure]

CHI 31 DET 7

[Soul]

Well actually, there's Smith.

 

He's got some good upside.

 

How about no more stupid mistakes.

[UMFan83]

This game feels like a 2006 game, where I get mad when the other team scores because 31-7 isn't as cool as 31-0

Calvin Johnson, Roy Williams and Ernie Sims basically sums it up.

The team leads the NFL in drops, largely due to Roy & Calvin's focus lapses

 

Ernie Sims is good but they still have nothing even remotely resembling a pro bowler

You could very well be correct.

[Jon]

I miss those days.

[Guest]

Packers still down 17-10.

[Cynosure]

What the hell is Hester doing today?!?!

[Guest]

Nick Roach out, shoulder injury.

[Brian]

Big Kyle real close to getting 300 yards

[rawaction]

Packers still down 17-10.

 

Matt Ryan just threw a pick in the redzone.

[Soul]

What the hell is Hester doing today?!?!

He looks very tentative, not quick at all. I don't know if it's because there are no lanes to run in, or if he's still a little hurt, or what.

 

It's not the same right now though.

[Brian]

Kyle!

[UMFan83]

This game feels like a 2006 game, where I get mad when the other team scores because 31-7 isn't as cool as 31-0

I miss those days.

 

The pinnacle of those days was that game against SF when we got 40 points in the first half, and I spent the entire halftime debating with my friends how many points we would score in the game. As it turns out they didn't score at all in the second half but it was fun to ask questions like "when is the last time an NFL team scored 70 points in a game?"

[Soul]

Nice.

 

Orton with the sneaky run for 1st down.

[Outshined_One]

There's something inherently amusing about seeing a QB lower his shoulder on a run.

[Jon]

That was apparently Orton's "oh crap" brace for impact. Tried to make a hit, then thought better of it.

Calvin Johnson and Roy Williams are 2 of the best in the league.

[Guest]

Packers still down 17-10.

 

Matt Ryan just threw a pick in the redzone.

 

Bah.

[Soul]

Tied in GB. I'll bet GB goes on to win that one now.

[Brian]

Packers still down 17-10.

 

Matt Ryan just threw a pick in the redzone.

 

Bah.

 

and Packers get a TD, tie game
