After the game Seahawks' DL Michael Bennett had some interesting comments about Lions' QB Matthew Stafford.
The Detroit Lions were once again playing a half game of football, but this time, they were playing the second half. Unfortunately, a fourth straight loss to open this season came to the Seattle Seahawks thanks to a simple mistake by a veteran wide receiver.
With the Saints beating Dallas on Sunday Night Football, the Lions are officially the only winless team in the NFL.
"If you do something new every play, your players probably won't be good at it, and if you do the same thing every play, the defense will probably be good at stopping it."
Matthew Stafford and the Detroit Lions haven't lived up to the hype surrounding the 2015 Detroit Lions.
"Nobody has said anything to me," said quarterback Matthew Stafford when asked if he had heard opponents calling out Detroit's plays.
The Detroit Lions have started the 2015 season 0-3. A lot of the blame from the fans has fallen on the shoulders of Matthew Stafford.
The Detroit Lions put up their best fight of the season and they played like the team that many expected them to play like all season.
"That's why we're 0-3. We're hurting ourselves. No one in this league can match us or play against us unless we hurt ourselves and we've been doing that for three straight weeks."
Peyton Manning converted a fourth down with a 45-yard touchdown pass to Demaryius Thomas with 5 seconds left in the first half, and threw an 11-yard TD pass to Owen Daniels with 2:28 remaining, lifting the Denver Broncos to a 24-12 win over the Detroit Lions on Sunday night.
The Detroit Lions are 0-2 this season, and they are hoping to get off of that skid this Sunday night against the Denver Broncos. They are dealing with an injury report that doesn't have a lot of serious things going on, but Matthew Stafford will be starting, and that's a good thing.
"Just knowing that we have good players, knowing that we've executed well in spots and when we get a little more consistent, we're going to be a lot more excited about it."
Jimmy Fallon gave the Lions and the Broncos the superlative treatment on Wednesday's episode of "The Tonight Show".
"A lot of the things they're saying about him, the same thing they said about Peyton early on in his career."
Quarterback Matthew Stafford was a full participant in the Lions' Wednesday practice, as he deals with an unspecified injury to his ribs that he suffered against Minnesota.
The Detroit Lions are sitting at 0-2 with a game coming up against the Denver Broncos on Sunday night.
Head coach Jim Caldwell again deferred to the injury report when asked about the status of quarterback Matthew Stafford.
The Denver Broncos don't look like the same dominant team from the past few years, but they're still extremely dangerous. With the way the Detroit Lions have played so far, they must not take anyone lightly in search of their first win of the season.
"I think everyone in this building – I mean, hopefully everyone in this state – support Stafford and this team. … I wouldn't pay too much attention to all that BS. That's just someone trying to start something, give someone something to talk about."
"We'll see. Like I said, he's very, very sore. There's no question about that. He got hit far too many times."
To add literal insult to injury, Pro Football Focus now says that Stafford has the second-worst grades of any quarterback through the first two weeks. PFF grades each player in the NFL each week, based off their performances, then those grades are normalized based off individual game situations.
USA Today ran the numbers, and teams that start 2-0 like the Lions are - newsflash - far less likely to make the playoffs. According to the story, "over the past six seasons you have a 4% chance of making the playoffs if you're winless headed into Week 3." And since the NFL expanded to its playoff format in 1990, only 11.2 percent of 204 teams to start 2-0 have made the playoffs that season.
The Detroit Lions played great last week, but couldn't keep it going for the entire game. In week two, the Minnesota Vikings just dominated from the start and the Lions really had no answer for Adrian Peterson whatsoever.
"His second interception, I think might've been affected by that just because he was a little bit numb and I wasn't as aware because it was pretty quick that we were back on the field."
"You get into crunch time, there's an old saying out there, 'Think players, not plays.' And sometimes you've got to find 81, and there's no question about it."
