Buffalo & Detroit, destiny or fate?

[Denny]

Well the NFL has suspended Suh for two games and the Lions will be without him on Sunday Night down in New Orleans when they play the Saints. However, the big news though is in Oregon today where he lost control of his car and crashed it. There were two passengers inside the car with Suh and fortunately nobody was hurt or injured. Sounds to me like Suh is crying out for help as far as his on the field problems. If the Lions don't make the playoffs this year, just wonder if they may try to cut him or trade him?

[Denny]

I watched the NFL Today pregame show on Sunday and they said that Suh's salary is about $80.000 or something like that a game and if they suspend him for 2 or more games then the Lions have to start paying his fines or something like that. Didn't Suh and the commish Goodell have a meeting not too long ago about his antics?

[Ohio Bob]

Mama Suh may be the reason why he is a dirty player. For all the charitable good he does, when he gets on the field he throws tantrums. Looks like someone needed to tell him "No" a long time ago.

[Ken Niemi]

And, if Mrs. Suh does not tell her son that he Is a dirty player, he may continue to hurt his team like he did in the Thanksgiving game.

Well, Brian now you did it as you brought on a curse for both Detroit and Buffalo by predicting them to go to the Super Bowl. The big questions are can the Pack run the table at 19-0 and will the Colts equal the Lions record in 2008-09 of 0-16? Before anyone makes a bet on the Pack at 19-0, don't forget the Pats almost did it a few years ago and look what happened as they got shell shocked by the Giants or G-Men in the Super Bowl a few years back. Just wonder how much longer that '72 Dolphins team will wait before popping the champagne cork on their pefect season as the only team to do it? And to think the Lions started out at 5-0 and now are 7-4 and people want to know why I am not on the Lions bus and band wagon yet? Can't say I told you so.

I hereby withdraw my suggestion of a Detroit-Buffalo Superbowl. Forget I even thought of it.

Look what the Packers did to the Vikings Monday night, 11-14,
45-7 ! Wow!

[Denny]

Well I wonder what some are saying and thinking now about the Lions since they got blown out by the Bears in Chicago? Hard to believe at one point they were tied with the Pack atop the North and now are tied with the Bears for second place in the North? And the Lions still have to play the Pack twice yet? Like I figured too good to be true and the same old Lions. Sort of like the Jets and the Patriots as the Pats are always on top and the Jets are always look up north at the Pats. Same thing with the Lions.

[Guest]

At least the Lions are not the Colts! Lost to the Saints 62-7 Sunday night.

After 4 years in the "D" all about Detroit. Have faith in the D 2020 vision, also see that in Buffalo, Good Blue color hard working people will get it done

[Guest]

So far the Red Wings aren't doing too bad at 5-1.

[Denny]

Well, it looks like the Lions are back to their typical and usual old selves again with two straight losses now. They have now lost to both the 49ers and the Falcons and are now 5-2 and way behind the Pack whom I may add beat the Vikes today and are on a roll at 7-0. Keep in mind Detroit still has to play the Pack twice both at home on Thanksgiving and at Green Bay on New Year's Day where they haven't won in Green Bay since 1991. Good Luck!

[Denny]

I would have to bet on Green Bay vs the Patriots in the Super Bowl and that would be a tough one to call considering both teams have experience. However, as much as I hate Tom Brady and the Patriots, give them credit as he's helped them win 3 titles and Brady was the Super Bowl MVP twice. Also, they got Belichick as their coach as well. The Pats are also tough to beat at home especially in the snow and cold weather. Can the Chargers travel to New England and beat them in the cold? I don't think they can.

[Isaac]

I have San Diego over Green Bay in the Super Bowl.

[KariAnn]

Packers all the way.Is there any doubt? Kudos to Detroit! Still cheer for them over the Bears and Vikings Brett Let's just forget about him.Cannot believe he was out running his mouth about Packers. Brett Love U all

[Denny]

Rob, Detroit may be on a roll but, look at their schedule for the remainder of the year. They play the 4-1 49ers at home this week and then they still have to play the Packers twice both at home and in Green Bay on New Year's Day where they haven't won since 1991. The Lions also play in New Orleans yet and also on the road in Oakland and home to San Diego on Christmas Eve. Let's not forget too that Matthew Stafford has not been healthy since the Lions drafted him. It seems that every QB the Lions have had through the years has been injured and been a bust at some point in their career. Look at Rodney Peete years ago from USC when they got him. Everyone thought he was great and then he came here and he was injured all the time. Look at two other QB's both from college Joey Harrington and Andre Ware both of which came here and their careers were a bust. Get my point?

[Rob]

Detroit is on a roll and if they can keep healthy they are going to have a good shot. The defending champs the Packers have the grit and experience to make it back and Rogers is a hell of a quarterback. It will be a toss up between the two of them in the NFC. As far as the Bills, I have to see them get in the playoffs for certain before I will speculate anything. I have been a fan since I was in diapers and spent my fall/winters from 12 yrs old to 28 yrs old sitting at the Ralph (Ralph Wilson Stadium) watching them. I was at the greatest comeback in NFL history game. I have seen the best years and the years were you could barely give the tickets away. This year has been a surprise, but remember in 08 we went 5-1 only to lose the rest of the games. Time will tell, but it would be nice to see two rust belt teams battle it out!!

[Ohio Bob]

Just a thought that Green Bay may have something to add to this conversation.

[Denny]

I'll bet all those Vikings fans are wishing that Favre had not retired after last season afterall? Isn't it ironic that the Redskins once had McNabb as their QB and they are 2-1, while the Vikes now with McNabb are 0-3? Wonder how much longer McNabb starts?

After last Sundays performance, we know it won't be the Vikings and Buffalo .
