Restore The Roar!

The Detroit Lions are on a streak that cannot be tamed, like a loose Lion. Oh wait... they are the Lions. Matthew Stafford is playing as if he were 100% and with him staying healthy they will remain unbeatable. ESPN analysts were ranking the Lions as the top team in the NFL into week 6. The only two remaining undefeated teams in the NFL are the Detroit Lions and Green Bay Packers, which both happen to fall in the same division. After last night's Monday Night Football game, the Detroit Lions look like a 'team-to-beat' which does not seem will be happening anytime soon.

The Detroit Lions fans are getting rowdier than ever, as we saw last night at Ford Field. The first time in nearly ten years that the Detroit Lions have had a game at home on Monday Night Football. The closest we had to a Monday Night Football game was last year when the Minnesota Vikings Dome collapsed and they had to move to Ford Field for the game.

Many Detroit Lions players are setting NFL records and the most notable one is that of Calvin Johnson’s. He is the first player in NFL history to catch 9 touchdowns in their first 5 games of the season (not including the pre-season games)

Along with the Lions playing last night, the Detroit Tigers had a rescheduled game from Sunday night due to weather that took place before Monday Night Football. The tigers had a great game going for them and went into the 11th inning until Nelson Cruz nailed a grand slam for the win. The Detroit Tigers are now down two game to nothing and are still playing their hearts out. This is Detroit's year in sports so my bet is that they will recover and come back to victory like the Lions have tended to do.

With outfielders Magglio Ordonez (ankle) out and Delmon Young hurting, the Tigers simply do not have enough firepower to match up with the Rangers. This is the main reason why they allowed Texas to pitch around Miguel Cabrera, Detroit's best hitter, especially with cleanup man Victor Martinez struggling at an 0-for-7 clip in the ALCS.

Look for The Detroit Tigers to get back on track and the Detroit Lions to continue their killing spree that has shocked the world. The Lions are on their way to the super bowl and the Tigers are on their way to the World Series. Here we go Detroit!

Lions Preview Week 4

From this.........
          
To.......This  

Last week, the Lions pulled off an amazing 20-point comeback against the Vikings. This week the Lions take the national stage as FOX's premier game against the Cowboys. The Lions come to Dallas as one-point underdogs despite their 3-0 record. Oddsmakers apparently were convinced by the Cowboys' impressive win over the Redskins on Monday night.

Let's not let that distract us, because we are obviously the best team in the NFL and wouldn't want to get cocky. The Detroit Lions will come out with that fire as they have been doing all season and will show the Dallas Cowboys that they cannot pull those comebacks against the Lions.

Led by a quarterback who grew up in Dallas during those Aikman, Smith and Irvin glory days, a receiver who might be the best in the NFL and a rapidly maturing defense, Detroit is on the rise.
The Lions head to Cowboys Stadium on Sunday seeking another victory that could stamp them as a team to beat in the NFL this season, that is, if they aren't already. Detroit (3-0) has the league's longest winning streak, seven. If we count the preseason games, than they are at 11 consecutive wins.

Tony Romo has won the past two games while playing with a cracked rib, and many of his most talented teammates are sidelined or also playing through pain. Romo is expected to wear a protective vest and to take painkilling medication before kickoff.

Goals for each team
 Detroit:

1. Start off strong 
2. Contain Tony Romo and bring pressure because he is hurt
3. Play as a team

Dallas:

1. Prevent the Lions from starting off the first quarter with fire
2. Guard all short passes to the running backs
3. Put points on the board
4. Touchdowns instead of field goals

Michigan Football Update Week 5

The fans of Michigan have no reason to not be happy.. They are looking like the best state of sports currently. The Detroit Lions are undefeated at 3-0. Yes, I did say 3 and 0 this time. Not 0-3! The Detroit Tigers are the top team in their division and the playoffs are underway and they look like a world series team. And now the Michigan Wolverines football team are also undefeated  at 5-0. This is my first time cheering for both of my favorite footballs teams with both of them being undefeated a few weeks into the season. Let's hope these results keep up and the smile on my face will also stay on.

Michigan is starting to look like the Wolverines from a few years ago. In order for us to be a threat in the upcoming games they are going to have to keep playing with that force they have shown thus far. Denard Robinson overcame the struggles in his decision making and is starting to look like the best quarterback in NCAA football. Our defense played like a wall and did not let anything get by them tonight. When a defense holds the other team to 0 points at the end of the day there cannot be any complaining.

The offense looked like they should be the number 1 team in the nation. Vincent Smith played with a new goal, to be the new Heisman trophy winner at quarterback, wide receiver, oh and running back. Vincent Smith caught one touchdown, threw for a touchdown, and also ran for a touchdown all in one game this afternoon against Minnesota. Our offense completely embarrassed the Minnesota defense. I do not like to say this because my teammate from high school football is the corner-back of their defense but Go Blue!
