Trivia question:

The last 11 QB #1 draft picks who started game 1 of the season, lost game 1 of the season. Who was the last that won?

(Disclaimer: This is according to Chris Simms and I haven't fact checked it.)

I thought blitzing is the main counter to the Air Raid...?

I don't want to hear any claims it's pretty-boy football from the Lions. When the Lions blitz the Cardinals need to make them pay for it. None of this stuff like with the Raiders.

I don’t know the answer but I can tell you NONE of them came in knowing the system. Huge difference.

Stop the run or turn out the lights!

3 of the first 4 games are against teams the will pound the rock & the Lions did as well towards the back part of last season, it’s gonna be key as well today.

Go Big Red
