There’s something special about Lions wide receivers.  There must be something in the water there in the Detroit.  Check out this little nugget from Lions wide receiver Nate Burleson:

“Yeah, I said we’re going to win. We only have five games left and my goal is to finish 7-9. Like I’ve been saying all year, we don’t have a team on our schedule that we can’t beat.

“I am not saying the Chicago Bears aren’t good. They are a very good football team. They can take this as bulletin board material if they want, but we play to win the game. I am not going to tell you I hope we win or that we’re going to lose in a close battle. Whoever steps onto our home field Sunday, we’re going to try and leave with a victory.”

Thank you Nate.  In case the Bears were nodding off at the wheel, this is just what they need.  If I were you, I’d keep my head on a swivel.  Look out for Da Hitman Chris Harris  or old faithful #54 across the middle to help you with that guarantee.
