Patriots rocking the red jerseys today and they force Detroit to punt here.

Here comes Brady and the Patriots offense.

I took the Patriots and Jets in a parlay.

Either there is an upset or I win money. I like that move.

That's the Lions strength, the defensive line

Suh and Vanden Bosch particularly

Suh gets the early sack

on the Vanden Bosch hit

I don't know about the Settlers, but the Steelers would've got flagged.

If that was Harrison or Woodley, you betcha, hitting the QB in the back after he let it go.

costly missed FG to end the third

that might be it for the Lions

Lions hung around for 3 quarters but the Pats putting the whooping on them in the 4th. 38 - 24.

this game is over but the fantasy points keep racking up for me

Brady 340 yards 4 TD
Welker 90 yards 2 TD

Lions could use a little help in the back seven, I'd say :D

Patrick Peterson at CB would be a nice start

but they need a top linebacker as well

There is no way I'd be running a QB sneak with Brady up by 14 in the 4th. Just asking for an injury.

Lions tired of being the NFL's whipping boys, fight on the field now.

Lions need some attitude at linebacker. Not that they'll find another Ray Lewis but that type of presence playing behind their defensive line, coming up and making some big hits, setting the tone, would really advance the defense.

They also need to work on tackling in the secondary. That one DB had 3/4 opportunities for tackles that he missed for TDs and big plays.

their secondary needs major help but if they end up drafting high enough, which they should, they'll get either Peterson from LSU or Akumara from Nebraska

then at linebacker either second round or free agency

Dallas is getting deep fried
(I love all of the these little puns you can make related to Thanksgiving and food)

17-0 end of the 1st
