Besides giving playing time to Asher and Paymah could really payoff in the long run. Good idea Adam. Besides giving playing time to Asher and Paymah could really payoff in the long run.

Again, we'll know more by this evening. Anybody will matchup poorly against Detroit's receivers (and tight end) but that only does Detroit any good if they can protect the quarterback... which they can't against the Vikings. If Winfield is even a question mark, then I don't think it is worth the risk against the Lions. Perhaps just use him in nickle situations is what I would do... let him get back on the field and loose, but not over doing it. As of now, the Lions receivers appear to be fully healthy.

I hope the players do not get too confiedent, but I also hope the coaches are confident enough to realize when they've won a game and pull the starters. Helth going into the playoffs will be a huge factor as to how this team does. That’s a good point, and we’ve seen that in the past.

It would be very easy to start looking past some weaker teams we play. I dont think they will because of the veteran leadership they have.
