Calvin a surprise inactive...yikes. I don't think we can win it without him but this would be a huge one. Should be fun

I know the Lions were without Calvin and Nate so it was tough to expect a win, but the penalties and mistakes made it clear that this team is not competing on a meaningful level yet. Consistency is part of being able to compete at a high level, and consistency is NOT in the Lions' playbook yet.

Missing Calvin really showed the lack of speed from the rest of the WRs. They could not get open.

Green Bay handles its business at home. It was not going to be an easy game even with Megatron. Without him, very little chance unless the defense and special teams could produce points. They did not.

My initial takeaways from the game, in slideshow form. You'd be surprised how hard it is to write to the format for those suckers.

Some observations from yesterday's game:

1) Scheffler is basically done, right?

2) We didn't play Bell nearly enough

3) Bush danced around behind the line way too much

4) Delmas played well

5) We lacked pass rush yesterday

6) We need to trade for a WR
