Jamie and Wojo have consulted with Lions fans and concocted a formula to determine whether or not this season will be another labled "Same Old Lions."
"Once I got to the locker room, I kind of remember some stuff," Bell said. "[On the sideline] I didn't remember everything, though. I can't remember what I couldn't remember, but by the time I got in I remembered just about everything."
Prater, the third kicker for the Lions this season, will debut with the team on the road Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings.
"We have people in the building that have gone through similar issues and problems that we think have a lot in common with him in terms of being able to give him a support system," Caldwell said.
Off three straight 4-1 weeks, we are going undefeated this time around.
Matt Prater will be the third Lions kicker of the season when he starts in Minnesota on Sunday.
The person accused of using a laser pointer at Sunday's Detroit Lions-Buffalo Bills game has been identified and effective immediately will be banned indefinitely from attending all future events at Ford Field, the Lions announced today.
If Joe Lombardi knows whether wide receiver Calvin Johnson will be available Sunday, he did not tip his hand Thursday.
"You've never heard me ever use the term 'decoy,'" Caldwell said.
Teddy Bridgewater wants to win, of course, a given when it comes to any NFL player's public commentary.
Injuries took a toll on the running game last week, Bell out with a concussion and Riddick sidelined by a hamstring issue.
"Some of these things require some rest," Johnson said. "You can't keep on pounding on it and expect it to get better."
George Winn could be getting more help in the running game this week.
Lions coach Jim Caldwell would not provide specifics about his hour-long talk with Matt Prater, but he said he believes in second chances.
The NFL is attempting to shed light on who allegedly shined a laser pointer at Buffalo Bills players at Detroit's Ford Field last weekend.
Prater made 25 of 26 attempts with the Denver Broncos last season, but the team cut him right before he finished his four-game suspension for violating the league's substance abuse policy.
Schmidt said he had the laser pointed at him while holding on a 50-yard field goal attempt that Dan Carpenter banked off left upright in the third quarter.
Two former Michigan players want in on the Lions kicker competition. One played his ball at Michigan and the other played at Michigan State.
While the kicker auditions will garner the bulk of the attention this week, the Lions are reportedly checking out cornerback options, too.
"You know he is a gamer," Rapoport said, per NFL.com, "but he wants to make sure he gets this ankle healed for the long haul."
Sunday was another frustrating day to be a Lions fan as they fall to the Bills 17-14.
Johnson had 19 catches for 329 yards in Detroit's first three games. In the last two weeks, he has caught just three passes for 19 yards.
Caldwell said there is someone out there who is right for the team; the Lions just need to track him down.
All three misses came in the second half of Sunday's game, which the Lions at one point led by two touchdowns.
Evidently the person pointing the laser forgot to try and distract the Bills on the 58-yard kick that elevated Buffalo over Detroit, 17-14.
