NOLA54 · 10-15-2014, 08:28 PM

All we need to know is that this is a road game & we have not won one since the playoffs.

I think you forgot whose defense Stafford is facing.

I think we all saw first-hand how beneficial it was to have Josh Gordon out.

Nah ... in the grand scheme of things, it really doesn't matter that much to me who wins this one and I can be equally glad regardless of outcome. I got friends here,

.

Pre-SuperBowl Saints/Ain'ts fans can probably relate to where I'm at with the Lions as a fan,

. I've seen 'em blow too many games like this ... Wk #5 (BUF) being the most recent example,

.

New Orleans/Detroit are kindred souls, IMO ... so much so, JaredAllen (CHI) was quoted as hating to travel to each equally for games,

That Gordonless team has only lost ONE game and is in FIRST place in the AFC North. They are proving to be a far more impressive team than what we thought they were coming into week two.

Why is there no love for Golden? Having Falcons-West as part of his resume is a red flag, but so far in Detroit he seems to be a solid guy ... am I missing something? Is this guy locker room poison?

I think NOLA54 has made the best point.

THIS IS A ROAD GAME, REMEMBER!!!!!! - Gulp!

The media are already saying that Drew is going to struggle against the strong Lions D.

Hope we prove them wrong and get our first road game win but I think it will be tough!

GEAUX SAINTS!!!

There's quite a bit of hate for him when we played the Hawks twice last season

Basically he tried to make out he was a big time player squaring up to our players, until he met rafael bush, it only took one hit and Tate was not heard from the rest of the game

The three teams that beat us this year so far... Calvin Johnson didn't play for them, either.

Means nothing. We will fight for this win if we can get it.

Media hype ... they built their rep on the Giants (on MNF, which was this year's "SuperBowl" for Detroit, IMO), a Packer team without a game plan (that's gonna' smoke 'em in Dec,

), the NYJ & the Vikings ... IDK about you guys, but I'm expecting Brees & the Saints to put up a better showing than any of those teams, and even Carolina/Buffalo, the two mediocre franchises on the schedule that did manage to beat the Lions.

I'd honestly be surprised if the Lions (without Calvin) pulled this one off.
