who is this nut for the Lions

I'm just not a believer.

The Lions were so awful on Sunday, I don't think you can take anything from it from the Bears standpoint. Jon Kitna is just a poor excuse for a quarterback, and one break - that piss poor "hand to the face" call on Fernando Bryant - and the Lions are within ten in the third quarter. That was the game right there.

I don't think you can put the blame on Kitna, 23-30 passing is pretty good. The Lions were penalized 14 times for 104 yards and turned the ball over three times including fumbles on each of their first two possessions leading to ten early points for the Bears. Which one of those fumbles was Kitna's, but as a whole, I thoght he played OK. Lions D after that great job they did in the Seattle game was really bad. They made Rex Grossman look like friggin Peyton Manning. Actually, I think the Bears are for real. All they need is about 17-24 pts/game and they win 12 -13 games this year. I dunno about the superbowl, but I think they could go NFC Championship game.

if they play like they have played the first two games all year, we will not lose a game, that being said, I doubt that will happen. I am already on record with friends with a 13-3 predictation, so we will stick with that, they will sweep the NFC Central or North or whatever the heck it is now

Scavs, the Bears are a decent team, but don't you think the fact they played the Packers and the Lions in week one and two had anything to do with how good they have looked? I know I do.

Lions held SEATTLE to 6 points, I know that is a bias argument and it is extremely weak but I am telling you, watch what they do to Minnesota this weekend, gonna beat them by 21 and they will fail to get 150 yards of total offense. The only thing that can stop us is if we are thinking ahead to Seattle, a HUGE game for us from a mental aspect. IF we can handle Seattle and beat them, this team goes to the Super Bowl, if Seattle beats us, and bad, we will be in trouble the rest of the year. There isn't a more talented team then the Bears out there, they have the two best front lines in football, the most important aspect in football, the trenches. When you have four guys that constantly are all over the QB and then you have five guys that don't let your QB get touched, you are going to win alot of games. Grossman has forgot what grass feels like his, his jersey was prestine last week, against a Lion's front four which were suppose to be top five in football.....

The Lions front four are top five in football? What crack smoker made that assessment?

People have said that Shaun Rodgers is the best DT in football. Tommie Harris showed him what's up

I am trying to find a Tank Johnson jersey but they are hard to find, I am most likely getting a Harris jersey to go with my Urlacher and Salamm jersey. Salamm only gets worn when we go to games, it is awesome the conversations that get spured by that jersey

Scavs, you're my boy, but dang, you can be a Bears homer. Shaun Rogers is one of the laziest human beings going. That being said, I could name ten defensive lines off the top of my head who are superior to the Lions. One player doesn't make a great d-line.
