Is it just me or did Marshall Faulk pick the lions because they are a better coached team?????

There was some severe holding going on during much of that drive.

Looks like our defense ate the turkey before the game. Maybe our offensive line will start the game with more energy... :lol:

It all hinges on whether the DL is getting pressure on the QB. When we do it, great things happen. When we don't, it's like a hot knife through butter.
