[QUOTE="tromadz, post: 20311, member: 306"] If you've ever watched ESPN's "Around the Horn," you know what 'Buy or Sell' and "overUnder" is. You either agree(buy) a statement, or you sell(disagree) with a statement. Then you give your reasoning why you feel the way you do. I am going to do this every week before that weeks game, just so we have some things to discuss, and keep it lively. Also, please no short,lame,one word answers like "I sell...cuz they suck." "OverUnder" is pretty self explanatory. K, let's get this started. Buy or Sell: The Detroit Lions scoring first. -Sell: I think, even if the lions get the ball first, the packers defense can get at least 1 stop on them and score themselves. Buy or Sell: Brett throwing an interception -Buy: Favre will probably force one and get picked off. I still think the pack will win though. Buy or Sell: Brett getting banged up and missing at least one play -Sell: I think the offensive line will do just fine. There will be times when Favre is pressured, maybe even sacked, but with his offseason CORE training, and his toughness, I don't think he'll miss a play. Buy or Sell: Paris Lenon leading the team in tackles this week -Sell: Lenon was a stud in the last preseason game, and probably got himself in the starting lineup untill Diggs returns, but I still think Barnett will lead the team in tackles overall, and in this individual game. Buy or Sell: Joey Thomas having better numbers than Ahmad Caroll (tacklesintspass defelections) -Sell: Joey Thomas has played better all year, and it should continue this week. Buy or Sell: Detroit special teams returning a kickoff to their own 40 yard line -Sell: The special teams for the packers have been awful, but with the packers cutting all the people they did, a lot of them special teamers, I think the 'fat' has been cut (and thats not a reference to hunt). I think the special teams should do fine. OverUnder: 2 turnovers FORCED by the Green Bay Defense -Under: Joey Harrington is too mediocre to not throw a bad one, and he's too unsure sometimes to not hold on longer than he should. We should at least get one, but 2 might be pushing it. I see us getting 1 from Nick Collins. OverUnder: 130 rushing yards total for Detroit -Over: I think our run game is improved with jackson back, but the bottom line is he will not play EVERY down. Also, Kevin Jones is a very very very good running back. When ahman green gets 100 yards, do we say the other teams defense sucks? nah, we say ahman green is good, because he is. Same thing here. OverUnder: 3 penalties on Ahmad Carroll - Over: A lot of you know I don't like Carroll, but this isn't about that. This is about the facts. He is going to go up against (probably) Charles Rogers, and he is nowhere near good enough to hang with him. 2 holding penalties, and 2 pass interference penalties at least. Going to be a long day for Carroll. OverUnder: 3 sacks by the GB defense Over: Jenkins, KGB, Kampman, ACTION FACTION JACKSON. They can get pressure on him, and will get the occasional sack. 3 might be stretching it, but I am an optimistic person. BUY OR SELL: The packers winning the game -Buy: This game should be the begining of the end for Joey Harrington, and our offense should be rolling on all cylinders. the defense will probably struggle a bit, but do good enough to get us through this. Packers 27, Lions 21 [/QUOTE]
