I flirted with the idea of picking the Chiefs, but decided against it.

Anyone else find it amusing that the Lions went for it, on 4th down, inside the 20, up 17? I wonder if Raiolo cut block his own team :D

They were up three possessions with less than two minutes to go. A field goal doesn't change anything, so you go for it. If you make the first down it's game over. If you don't they have to march the field 85 yards and have two onside kick recoveries. It's really just basic strategy to end the game.

Riiiight, I guess concussing the holder, inside the 20, giving the opposing team another TD is strategy too :D

Detroit strategy is different from normal strategy

Lol, I knew Romo was in for a game where he sucks. Then again the whole offense sucks
