Thank the refs for screwing us on that fumble. It would have been 21-7. My hats off to the Saints for going for it on those 4th downs, they knew what would have happened if they didn't. Well played fellas, well played. My boys gave it a good effort, but some of those cats on the secondary have to go. Missed interception opportunities and blown coverage, put the game out of reach. Fixing that secondary is going to be job one in the off season. It was a great year. We will be back. Saints are my pick for Super Bowl Champs this year.

I was a good game. Up until the 4th. Typical lions getting hosed by the refs. Not sayin Thats not why we lost though.
It was a good season and gives us something to look forward to. Hopefully we get some good players out of the draft. Im hoping for a top CB and/or OT.

Great season by the boys. With healthy running backs and some new faces in the secondary and the lions will be beasts.
Man the wheels really came off on the second half

One thing, the Lions do have to learn how to tackle a running back. Wrap them up. Too much launching in the NFL and not enough fundamental tackling. Use your arms, wrap them up.
Kudos to Sean Peyton and Brees. That's a great offense. Lions are not far behind though, we just need a complimentary running game.

Wow, give them credit for the first half...but overall in the game they couldn't stop the run or 4th down attempts.
Thought the officials werent that bad bc I was hosed in 2009 with officials in the Vikes/Aints playoffs. I thought they really let em play. The blown dead TD was a bum deal, but doesn't change the fact that Brees got away with three passes straight to the Lions secondary that they DROPPED. Ugh.
Lions need a run game and some secondary pick-ups in the draft. But they are good.
Oh and props for the youth of this team keeping their cool and not getting dumb penalties.
