[CBFF] Week 9 thoughts about rivals

[azbearfan34 at cox.net]

I agree with Chris on this one.  I would not classify the Lions defense as good. Their DL is OK, with some solid players, but the LB core is average and teh secondary is below average.  they are benefitting as much as anyone on the parity in the league.  Their "impressive" win yesterday underscored how supposedly good teams could be overrated.  I am really getting tired of reading what an offensive genius Shanahan is bye the way!!!
