Week 1 Lions at Raiders

Lions 34 at Raiders 31

An offensive shootout thru the air. Raiders QB Rich Gannon threw 51 passes for 387 yards, 3 TDs and 2 picks. Ty Detmer got the start for us and did not disappoint going 23-35 310 yards and 4 TDs without a pick. On the ground Reuben Droughns had 17 carries and 95 yards. Herman Moore led the way for our receivers with 111 yards and a TD. On defense the only bright spot was Alonzo Spellman who had 1.5 sacks and 4 hurries.

Our secondary which we knew would be a problem is going to have to improve or every game will be a shootout. Our offense should keep us in every game if only we can stop someone.

Injuries: Charlie Batch is probable and looks like he will be ready to start.

Next Up: Minnesota Vikings come to Detroit. Randy Moss and Cris Carter are just licking their chops looking at our corners. Early odds list us as a 7 point favorite.
