The Denver Broncos don't look like the same dominant team from the past few years, but they're still extremely dangerous. With the way the Detroit Lions have played so far, they must not take anyone lightly in search of their first win of the season.
"I think everyone in this building – I mean, hopefully everyone in this state – support Stafford and this team. … I wouldn't pay too much attention to all that BS. That's just someone trying to start something, give someone something to talk about."
Matthew Stafford was in the locker room Monday, but he wouldn't comment to reporters on any injuries after last weekend's loss to Minnesota.
Here's what some of the league's coaches had to say on Monday about their team's performance in Week 2.
"We'll see. Like I said, he's very, very sore. There's no question about that. He got hit far too many times."
To add literal insult to injury, Pro Football Focus now says that Stafford has the second-worst grades of any quarterback through the first two weeks. PFF grades each player in the NFL each week, based off their performances, then those grades are normalized based off individual game situations.
USA Today ran the numbers, and teams that start 2-0 like the Lions are - newsflash - far less likely to make the playoffs. According to the story, "over the past six seasons you have a 4% chance of making the playoffs if you're winless headed into Week 3."

Andre Johnson and Darrelle Revis have taken familiar paths through the NFL.
All week long, the Green Bay Packers did their best to disregard the noise about their recent, disheartening history with the Seattle Seahawks.
Tony Romo has a broken left collarbone and could miss a significant amount of time for the Dallas Cowboys.
The Viking's Peterson had 192 total yards and the Minnesota Vikings rebounded for a 26-16 victory Sunday over the Detroit Lions.

The Detroit Lions don't really need all the help they can get because they showed last week that they can handle their own, but they simply need to play a solid 60 minutes. This week against the Minnesota Vikings, they have a few key injuries that could slow them down a bit.

DeAndre Levy sat out of the open portion of practice Thursday, continuing a nasty cycle of injury reports with his name on them and rumors circling about why. The Lions have listed Levy as dealing with a hip injury, although no further details have been specified.
"His second interception, I think might've been affected by that just because he was a little bit numb and I wasn't as aware because it was pretty quick that we were back on the field."
"It's not like when a play breaks down, he's looking to scramble. He's looking to keep the play going by passing it with a pass downfield. He does an excellent job there because that puts continued pressure on the defense."
