With Keynan Parker and Ryan Phillips covering the wide side of the secondary, Ricky Ray can play pitch and catch all night. The Lions have to give them some help.

TD for Ray & Co on their opening drive. Convert makes it 7-0 Tor.
Sports can be a peculiar thing. When partaking in fiction, like a book or movie, we adopt a "Willing Suspension of Disbelief" for enjoyment's sake. There's a similar force at work in sports: "Willing Suspension of Rationality". If you doubt this, listen to any conversation between rival team fans. You even see it among fans of the same team. Fans argue over who's the better QB or goalie, and selectively cite stats that support their views while ignoring those that don't.

Gaitor and Parker scorched on that series. Could be a long night. Parker looked awful on a ball that could have been knocked down.

And why the hell do we go into the wind and kickoff to start the game? Dumb decision.

Roh negates the sack :thdn:

Costly costly penalties. Just brutal.

Methinks the Lions will need to match score for score. Especially if they don't generate consistent pressure. But Brooks is back...Thank God!
