Here's one -- you have Calvin Johnson!!! arguably in the top 3 wide receivers in the league, we have nothing, squat at receiver. It is so bad that we had to let an underperformer go because he was doing even less than the last few years he's been here. Our current running backs were pulled from the practice squad. Our #2 and #3 receiver are 38 and played in the Intense Football league respectively. We have a completely new coaching staff, new offense, new defense, new QB -- everything is new AND WE ARE 4-3. By rights we shouldn't be doing this well but we are because despite all these issues, we have found ways to win, the Lions haven't and that's what matters in the NFL.

whoah. Not to descredit the "you are what your record is" statement, but the Redskins could easily be at 2-5. They are winning close games, but the lions have played in a lot of close games. If the redskisn fire on all cylinders, I think it's going to be a blow out, but the lions have some things that can cause us problems as we have some things that can mess with their schemes. I still think it's going down to the wire.
