Color me unimpressed

Really? This team is 5-0? Really? I'm sorry, but the Lions suck. Well, maybe not suck, but they are not any better than the 49ers. The Bears are God awful. The Bears played about as well as the Bucs played yesterday, and the Lions only scored 24 on them.

The Lions were very very lucky to beat the Vikings, a terrible team. They were EXTREMELY lucky to beat the Cowboys, a middle-of-the-road team. They played pretty unimpressively against the Bears, a TERRIBLE team. I'm not that worried about the Lions. They can't run, and if you put 3 guys on Calvin Johnson then there's not much they can do passing either. Their defense looks tough up front, but once you get behind their D line they are decidedly average at best. I don't buy the hype at all.

Know who went 6-0 one year? Josh McDaniels and the Broncos. Jim Zorn was 6-2 in his first 8 games with the Redskins. I'm not buying this. The 9ers should be able to beat this team and beat them handily.
