Megatron practiced today

I notice that no one took offense at the thread title calling Calvin Johnson: "Megatron".

We often disparage nick-names around here.

I, for one, think that he has earned that moniker.

Helluva player, imo.

He is a beast, love to have him. It will be hard to shut him down again, just have to limit the damage.

I don't think people mind you using his nick name, it's when you use those not so funny old cute nick names for teams is when the natives get restless around here

We cant count on them self destructing like they did last time (11 penalties for them??)

Weird I'm saying this, but I think we need to run a lot this week. Detroit is more reliant on the pass than we are...

Smoke screen. He'll be just fine.

You might be on to something . . . there is a stat out there about you guys not playing as well if Brees has 40+ pass attempts and we're something like 23rd defending the run . . . that's what I'm thinking your game plan should be . . .

go Lions.
