Moseley has been injury prone his entire career. No big loss.

The Gardner-Johnson injury is of significant concern to me.

Sounds like there's a 50/50 chance Branch will return in time to face Tampa Bay.

I can't wait to watch Baker shred the Lions defense!

I'd be all in on the Lions but I just heard Tampa is wearing their Creamsicle jerseys. I love those Creamsicle jerseys! No bet for me.

Gibbs and Branch both ruled out for Sunday, LaPorta listed as questionable.

I gotta say, some of these defensive penalty calls in the early games simply beggar belief. :rolleyes The Niners in particular are getting screwed big time.

Jake Moody misses a 41-yard game-winner.

I was very pleased with the Lions' defensive intensity in the first half. Hope that can continue in the second half!

I hope they don't and lose 31-10.

That flag on the hit by Walker that was picked up was the same hit that the Niners were called on and cost them the game.

Holding a team to two field goals on the road is a fine accomplishment for the Lions' defense. :hat

OUTSTANDING win. Holding the Bucs to a measly 6 points; awesome! Pass coverage was excellent and Goff and St. Brown were each great.

Craig Reynolds laid an outstanding block on St. Brown's catch & run that resulted in a TD.

I will say this would've been a much different game if Mayfield's pass accuracy had been better.

Goff currently has the 4th best QB rating in the NFL.

If someone had told me the Lions would win on the road in KC, in Green Bay *and* in Tampa Bay, I'd accuse that person of using illicit substances.

If the Lions win in Baltimore next week, I'll be euphoric!

Series history: Lions are 1-5 against the Ravens. The only win came, surprisingly, in 2005.

The icing on the cake is Philly and San Fran both melting down late to lose. Detroit now in a 3-way-tie at the top of the NFC.

The conclusion of the Jets / Eagles game was great!

First win ever for the Jets against the Eagles in series history (I believe today was only the 12th meeting between the two teams).

The way they are winning is so impressive. Against Patrick Mahomes team at KC or a defensive Bucs team in TB.

Goff deserves MVP consideration if you ask me, and I thought he was a bum..

This team is legit.
