The Lions were looking ahead to playing us on Thanksgiving. They almost lost to the lowly Bears. But alas, they pulled it off and I'm pretty sure will be loaded for....er green and gold come Thursday. We won't get them napping, we will get their best effort. Sadly that is better than our best effort. We managed to beat a below average team in an advantageous situation yesterday, but its unlikely we pull off this one.
Things to look for. Love continuing to spread the ball around. Watson being used correctly. Reed LINING UP at RB and taking a direct handoff about 7 times ala Randal Cobb. Packers going 5 wide multiple times with no RB on the field. Maybe 4 wide with Musgrave inline.

Lets see what happens when Barry has to play a team willing to smash it down our throat if we line up soft. SD didn't do it. Eck got 10 carries for 61 yards against a team that can't stop the run. How fucking bad of a coach is Staley anyway. Don't expect Detroit to go pass happy in this one. If we can hold Detroit to under 30 I'll be impressed.
