Looking ahead to @DET

Lots of analysis here... maybe too much. We have two 5000 yards passers on the same field. It'll come down to which defense does a better job and of course turnovers and special teams play.

Yep, gotta' talk about something during the Bye week ... besides, I got a sinking feeling "Touchdown" Teddy Bridgewater just might gonna' be more than the Lions can handle this weekend & I'm trying to avoid the subject,

.

I like the 5000yd passer comparison ... even though MattFord has really only done it once, whereas Brees sets the standard. That one season I thought Staffy was gonna' win the crown, Brees beat him by something like 50yds, but both can certainly put on a show.

In other news, they resolved "laserpointer-gate" at Ford Field, so there'll be no shenanigans from the crowd ... unless that guy that called the bomb threat into the Superdome the last time has been paroled,

... and people ask, "Slo, why don't you go to more games?",

Update: The Lions found out who the fan was from the incident and he will be banned from attending games, according to Mike Garafolo of Fox Sports.

Full health, this should be NFC game of the week.

Our offense should be fine. Ingram should return. Call me crazy but the loss of Jimmy Graham may help our offense, at least in the short term.

Our defense is streaky but improving. Breakdowns in the secondary will happen but I expect them to improve. Don't look now but Junya and Camouflage Jordan are #2 & #3 ranked in the NFL on QB hurries. They're getting closer!
