Week 15 Game Of The Week

Detroit Lions 3-10 VS. Oakland Raiders 3-10



The match up of two teams that want to show they are better than their record and with a good draft they will be contenders this year. Both of these teams have some great talent on both sides of the ball but have been victims of the injury bug and that is a great affect of their records. These teams will both probably have a pick in the top 5 in this up coming rookie draft. But no team wants to through a game to get a better rookie this is a game of pride!

Oakland Raiders Keys to Victory:
1) MLB P.Willis needs to be a leader. This guy is the best MLB in the game but has not been thriving in this Oakland D and needs to pick it up. If they want to win he is the key
2) 1-2 Punch at TE. With TE R.Gronkowski and TE B.Celek they maybe be the best TE core in the league. Get the ball to them!
3) QB B.Roethisberger has thrown for 2352 yards this season and will need to have a good game VS the Lions secondary

Detroit Lions Keys to Victory:
1) Work the ground game. RB T.Jones has had an alright season with 739 yards but you need to trust in your veteran to keep you in the game
2) DT F.Robins needs to get to Big Ben. He Robins is tied for 10th in sacks this season and needs to create a good pass rush
3) Stop the Raiders passing game. You have a veteran secondary so you need to play smart vs the Raiders

My Predictions:
I believe the Lions are still to hurt on both sides of the ball and wont be able to pull of another up set as they did last week vs the now 12-1 Minnesota Vikings and the Raiders and their Young D will crush the Lions run game and get the Victory and show us what we should expect Year 2

Raiders 35 Lions 14

What do you think? Did I get it right? Or was I way off? Let Me Know!

I say Lions win 17-14

What is this, the Toilet Bowl? No way the Lions will be embarrassed in their only primetime game this season.

2 weeks in a row I call the score just the wrong way
Lions win 35-14
