The sky isn’t falling, the offense can still sizzle, and Ben Johnson's departure isn’t the end of the world. The Detroit Lions proved all three in a 52-21 demolition of the Chicago Bears in Sunday’s home opener at Ford Field.
In just about any universe, the Lions should beat the Bears 52-21. Talented players can make any scheme work well. Campbell has the players, the Bears are quite a bit shy of that.
My favorite as a kid was Greg Landry. But when I was really small, Larry Hand visited our elementary school and the principal had me get him a glass of water. So he's up there. too.
Just read that some lions fans at the stadium started an “F” Ben Johnson chant. This is typical classless behavior on some lions fans who don’t understand that it is a compliment that teams are hiring coordinators from us. Hats off to Goff for saying he didn’t approve.

BJ had a another rough Q3. Glad that trend seems to have followed him to his new job.
Love seeing Porcher being added to the Pride of the Lions. He was my second favorite player in my youth, after Barry.

I respectfully disagree.
You disagree that he was my second favorite player? Who was then? I feel like I should know my own opinion a better than you, whoever you are.

This may sound like I'm being snarky, but I assure you I am not. I hope Davenport is okay.
They need to throw to TeSlaa more often, so he gets a chance to develop his other hand.
Overall great game no complaints
The Lions didn't play to near their potential and they still dropped a fitty burger. Hard not to like what you see.
Well done
I love Davenport
Firing on all cylinders. As expected. Stuff to clean up and special teams didn't look great, but that was dominant.
The Bears never recovered from the TeSlaa catch and timing snafu.
You'll never get used to the shoe being on the other foot.
