Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler might be showing signs he's a different player this season.
Lions wide receiver Calvin Johnson has been all over the TV and Internet recently.
For every personal foul committed by a Detroit Lion, the whole team will run three half-gassers. Sideline and back. Sideline and back. Sideline and back.
One thing was clear in the Arizona Cardinals' season opener, Carson Palmer has more than Larry Fitzgerald as a reliable target.
For the most part, new Detroit Lions running back Reggie Bush had a fantastic debut in the season opener against the Minnesota Vikings, racking up 191 yards of offense and eliciting chants of "Reggie! Reggie! Reggie! Reggie!"
Detroit Lions head coach Jim Schwartz must have minded the team's 11 penalties for 88 yards a little more than he let on after the season opener against the Minnesota Vikings.
"The league's out of control with some of these fines," placekicker David Akers said. "It's like it's Monopoly money, it's not real. That's a lot of money."
Writing that a perennially hapless Detroit Lions team that went 4-12 in 2012 will play for a conference championship in 2013 takes a considerable measure of vision and optimism.
Detroit Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh says he is appealing the NFL's $100,000 fine against him for his hit on a Vikings player over the weekend.
It's not everyday you get to hear what happens between the lines of a NFL franchise.
Suh did apologize to the team and Deandre Levy directly for costing the Lions a TD. Do you think it was excessive? Anybody out there think he should have been suspended? Has your reputation ever hurt you?
"I don't think there was any attempt to injure or things like that," Schwartz added. "It wasn't 40 yards behind the play..."
Reggie Bush realized right away how much easier his job might be this season, now that he's on the same team as Calvin Johnson.
The Lions won their third straight season opener in front of a packed and drained crowd at Ford Field in downtown Detroit, a game that managed to display why being a Lions fan is a near fatal experience every time the team takes the field.
The Lions picked up a 34–24 win over the Minnesota Vikings Sunday at Ford Field.
