Serviceable back.

Saw that, strange. Doesn't seem like they need another RB, they've got Smith who's carrying the load right now and seems to be ok, and Leshoure is coming back. I wonder what role they're looking for from him?

I see they're bringing in Steve Slaton too. There's a guy who fell off like an eight ball rolling over the edge of the table!

If Detroit signs Grant he'll be easy to tackle seeing he can't break one to save his life...

Yet the Packers haven't had a RB break a long td run since Ryan Grant.

Isn't Smith injury-prone?

We need a RB that can move the chains. Our home runs come from our passing game. Surely you agree Grant isn't one to break a tackle and get something out of nothing. MM and TT not resigning him (and him still unemployed today) spoke volumes to me. Benson isn't a long term answer to our running game but from what I can see he has better vision than Grant and he's better than any back we've had in a while.

For some reason, ex-Packers have big games against Packers.

We want the ball and we're gonna score!

God I love that video! But when I remember the game itself, Hasselback really was driving on the GB defense at will. Thank God for Al Harris!

His single moment of greatness. (AH)

Maybe not his single moment of greatness, but a singularly great moment for Al, surely.

He was a very solid corner who made probably the play of his career.

Majkowski lost as Lions QB in 1996.

Edgar Bennett lost too a few years later with da Bears.

I'm not afraid of Ryan Grant in a Lions' uniform.
