Lions predictions....

Well, I might as well...

versus	outcome	comment
at Oakland	Lions win	Beating Oakland during this stage of their development should be easy. They are rebuilding
Minnesota	Vikings win	The Viking defense will be too much for the Lions. In addition, the run game will eventually just wear out the Lion D.
at Philadelphia	Eagles win	An Eagle team that is not far out of the race from being the Conference champion will have some troubles with the Lion offence, but in the end stopping McNabb and Westbrook will leave the Lions short of the win.
Chicago	Bears win	The Lions shutdown the anemic Bears offense, but unfortunately the Bear defense scores more than the Lion offense.
at Washington	Lions win	The Lions D steps up and does its job. The hold the Redskins to 21 points, while the Lion offense racks up 39. All in field goals.
bye	No one win	Lions bearily beat no body.
Tampa Bay	Lions win	This is probably the best game of the year for the Lions. This will be one of those games where you wonder why the Lions aren't a contender. Then you realize you are watching them play Tampa Bay.
at Chicago	Bears win	See previous Bears comments as the same crap will happen again.
Denver	Broncos win	The Broncos run game perfectly sets up the pass game as the Broncos D, particularly Bly with 3 INTs, shut down the Lions' offense.
at Arizona	Lions win	In general, this is a close one where the total score is over 100 pts.
NY Giants	Lions win	Eli forgets where the end zone is. Either of them for the matter, and only scores for the Lions in the form of a safety. Kitna is injured. There goes the season. Of course I never thought I would say that in regards to Kitna.
Green Bay	Packers win	Farve has stellar game at Detroit. Sets touchdown record.
at Minnesota	Vikings win	The Lions put up a bigger fight again, but without Kitna the timing offense of Martz is completely screwed.
Dallas	Cowboys win	Romo, Romo, Romo and the blitzing D of the Cowboys.
at San Diego	Chargers win	Even though the game is meaningless for the Chargers as they have locked the division, the backup players still kill the Lions.
Kansas City	Chiefs win	LJ LJ LJ. Even with the upgraded run D, the common theme this year is using the run game to setup the pass game against a depleted secondary.
at Green Bay	Lions win	Green Bay was out of the playoff run so they bench Farve (as management could give a rat's ass about a legend) and the Lions completely shut down Rodgers.

All that said we are looking at a record of 6-10. The best record we have had in years!!! Go Lions. Make me proud.
