The Lions are missing many players on the DL ...
But I was pleased with what we have so far ...
Ben Watson looked pretty quick on his one catch. TE may be fine...in week 5.
That was my thought too. Hopefully Lacosse is alright, because I think between him as the receiving TE, the last man standing from the blocking TE hopefuls, and Watson as an adequate mix of the two, we'll be alright. It's not gonna be Gronk, but let's be fair: No one was going to be, and I'd say most NFL teams don't have dangerous weapons at TE. It's no longer going to be a strength, but it doesn't have to be a weakness.

LaCosse looked like Gronk on his first catch.
Some will say, 'He doesn't get great separation." which is kind of an inaccurate statement. My assumption is his route-running and technique will improve. However, what he has you can't teach....his size, ability to box out defenders and catch radius is absurd.I absolutely LOVED the 2 catches Harry made. Those type of plays are almost impossible to defend and will add an element to the offense that has been missing in recent years. He seems to play big.
I think BB wants to prove that he can win a SB without TB, so i don't see him retiring when Brady does.If BB had any thoughts of retirement I bet they're off after watching Stidham's play. They can add more Lombardis as long as Brady is here and it looks like he has another Garoppolo or better in the making to add even more. Admittedly it's early but why not think BIG? I bet there are other teams this morning saying "Oh no, not again!"

If it's not, which one are you keeping? I assume Stidham, but I would like a little more time to assess whether he's the real deal. Hoyer looked poised and it's tough to let go of that security blanket. If he continues to look good in the preseason and we let him go, someone else will snap him up. No way you can put Stidham on the practice squad, for the same reason.How is that a tough decision?
What was the rest of the Patriots Starting O-line? Patriots.com mentioned Froholdt at LG and St. Louis at RT with Karras at Center.
Did Stephen Anderson see time at TE? What about Beck?
Did Christian Sam see time during the game?
Did Kamalu see time on the DL?

Ebner is still on PUP. It was Dawson on the one punt I was paying attention for.Anyone watch the punt coverage team? Was Ebner out there as the Personal Protector?
