How did the safety happen? Was the interception outside the end zone? ---

> [@Jimmy\_Chitwood](#): > > How did the safety happen? Was the interception outside the end zone? Yes… and Butler went back into the end zone and got tackled.Then just now a ball hit him right in the chest for another INT and he dropped it. Sorry..the INT was in the end zone,he came out and went back in. ---

The Lions give up a TD on a fake 56-yard field goal. Some years, you know it just isn’t your year… Or was that some decades? Hard to keep straight… ---

Nevermind, [NFL.com](http://NFL.com) fixed it. Must have credited some of Bulger’s yards to Brown. ---

But they won, and broke a shorter losing streak then the Lions did. Looks like St. Louis will be drafting a QB in the first round next April. Bulger is not the man for this offense. ---

Bulger is not the man for this offense. Well, with Tampa and Detroit having just drafted QBs, they’ll be competing with the Redskins and Titans for Sam Bradford’s services. The Raiders are probably a dark horse contender too. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/rams-lions/515965.md?page=2)
