Even though the score may not reflect it, we owned this team.

Fumbles hurt, bad.
Penalties were no help either.

Props:

Edwards
Sapp
Favre (of course)
-LNAD my fucken ass!
AD minus the fumbles
Sick Sid
Shock and AWWE
Stafford
Defense - Love the pressure
Chiller
Kluwe
Harvin

The only team that can hold us back is us.

Ray Edwards is a beast.

And you are right ultra. We are actually the only thing that can beat this team. We left points on the field and were a few plays away from turning that into a 50 burgar.

Great game. We played down to DET I liked that we won.
Hopefully the pack lose.

**Freakout** · 11-15-2009, 03:21 PM

Just mental errors that I blame the 2 weeks off on.

Still not the biggest fan of the way our secondary plays - too much cushion especially on 3rd and longs.

I thought it was nice to get Reynard back.
Few good returns brought back by stupid penalties.

Percy is just amazing.

I think the coach staff came in overconfident in the first half and tried to do too many cutesy plays that didnÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t work.
In the second half it was more back to basics and we executed some beautiful big plays.
Lots of good performances in both offence and defense!

Eh came out rusty

Hope if we get a first round bye in the playoffs we don't come out rusty like that

But still decent.. Luckily Lions are horrible

Take a friggin shot at the end zone instead of the damn running plays on 3rd and long inside the 15.

**Purple_Jesus** · 11-15-2009, 03:28 PM

Terrible ref calls.
We deserved about 75% of those.
Good game though, on to Seattle next week.

Yah it's really puzzling why we don't use Sid down there more

I hope it was just bye-week rust, but we looked sloppy.

Berrian was effectively useless today. We should have pulled him after the second drop.

Four men and a baby, Triple P, Shock and Awwe, whatever you want to call them were great.

Officiating was suspect, but not as blatantly one-sided as the Pittsburgh game. When is the NFL going to spring for full-time officials?

Sidney Rice is awesome, we need to start giving him some TDs, he's earned them.

Childress/Bevell are still offensive jackasses IMO. If it weren't for our incredible talent level and Brett Favre they'd both be out of a job. Playcalling was really questionable at times today, again, hopefully bye-week rust.

Why run gadget plays against a team we can beat straight up? Save them for a real opponents, and make sure we can fucking execute them when we break them out.
