I am actually looking forward to this game, as I hate pre-season, but love the tenacity of guys trying to get a spot on the roster. Patriots have dominated their preseason, so it seems like a no brainer here, BUT..... the Lions are showing a bit of roaring since last season with their defense as well as offense. I expect Detroit to play competitively, as well as the Patriots. Might be better than the Colts Packers last night.

The Lions are a much improved team but the Patriots are still an elite team. This will be a very interesting game to watch even if it is preseason.

The Colts gave the Packers all they could handle last night. Their pass rush was impressive.

both games were close,i'm surprised about the Colts though without Peyton in there,they did good.

Painter was impressive and looked like he has good arm strength. The Colts defense came up with big plays throughout the first half.
