What to watch this week ...

Found October 02, 2011 on Lions Blog:
PLAYERS: Joe Buck,  Troy Aikman
TEAMS: Detroit Lions

SLR Game Balls: Detroit Lions at Dallas Cowboys

I’ll be honest, I started thinking about this post at halftime. I asked myself, who has actually played well for the Lions? I couldn’t answer the question. I threw it out in the SideLion Report live blog and Brandon Pettigrew was mentioned although I didn’t feel that he had much of an impact on the game despite making a nice first quarter catch. Ashlee Palmer was another answer...
