Week 1:
Detroit Lions 0-0 vs. Indianapolis Colts 0-0
GameDay - Amazing first half of defense for both sides! The Lions are up 7-0, and there has been three interceptions, and two sacks. The first two picks were on Andrew Luck, and the third being on Matthew Stratford late in the second. Both sacks have come from the Lions putting tons of pressure on Andrew Luck. The Colts have not been able to establish neither a running, or a passing game so far in this one. It seems as of the Lions have a solid passing game working, and are starting to pour on the running game on the stunned Colts. Let us see what the second half has in store! WHAT A START! The Colts run it back for 102 yards to make it 7-6! Not sure what really happened there, but it is now 7-7. Golden Tate III tore his shoulder late in the third as we marched down and connected with our second touchdown to regain the lead, 14-7...this couldn't really be worse. This game got intense in the 4th and final quarter. The Lions failed miserably trying to run out the time, and had to punt. 1:28 if what is left in this one, 21-14 Lions lead, and Luck is on a quest for the W. Play one...SACK! Play two...SACK! Play three...50 yard bomb! OUT OF BOUNDS! 3rd and 22, Luck goes for it again, incomplete pass! The Lions have :48 seconds remaining, and are at the 5 yard line. Riddick rushes it in! 28-14! Luck tried his best to air-mail it, but in the end a 6th, yes SIXTH!.. Sack ends the game.
