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.
