The Lions finally broke through the win column today with a beat down of the St. Louis Rams. The Lions were able to put together a complete 60 minute game today winning as close to a must win game as you can get 44-6 in Ford Field. The offense was able to to consistently gain yards and put points on the board on every drive and on every redzone possession. Shaun Hill was what he had to be today for the Lions to get the win and was the star throwing 3 TD with 0 INT and running the offense as well as anyone could have expected. Megatron and The Beast were the feature players on offense today with Calvin catching 1 touchdown and Jahvid helping to keep the Rams D off balance with picking up solid yards on his carries today. The defense was making big plays all over the field today holding Steven Jackson to under 100 yards rushing before the 4th quarter and 0 TD and keeping Bradford to going 23-45 with 215 yards and 0 TD with 2 INT. The Lions D were able to cause 3 turnovers including Ndamukong Suhs' first career INT and Alphonso Smiths' pick six and not allowing the Rams to score a point in the second half. The start of the game was exactly what the Lions needed they recovered an on side kick on the opening kick off which set up a field goal to go up 3-0 then Stefan Logan took one to the house returning a kick off 105 yards making it 10-3 followed shortly by a TD catch by Megatron making it 17-3, Pettigrew would catch a late TD pass making it 24-6 at the half which basically ended the game. It was great to see the team finally come together and play like a team for 60 minutes and get the win today.
Goodnight from the greatest sports city in the world and take it easy with the shoulder this week Calvin we dont need another franchise player injured this year
Drew in the D
