Wouldn't surprise me if they did just that to decoy the Lions' defense for a series or two before they figure out he's just running routes.

Payton be tricky.

Kind of like on Josh Hills long touchdown pass; Graham ran the out and cleared the safety and corner, Hill hit the seam for the easy touchdown...

I'll take being a dog with those odds

Yeah, but it's only the 2.5 you typically get for being the home team, so what's that telling ya? It's a pretty even matchup from what I'm seeing ...
