by Chris Burke Filed under: Lions Calvin Johnson , now is his third professional season, has shown flashes of brilliance. His 1,200-plus yards receiving and 12 touchdowns in 2008 were incredible numbers considering Detroit finished 0-16.

One play and a Willis Reed moment by Stafford later: Lions win. And while Chris Mortensen noted that players are taught to do...

... pass play. He added two more in the second quarter, including a 75 yard heave to wide receiver Calvin Johnson. With the Lions defense playing better in the second half, he added two more with each being a one yard toss to his tight ends.

... a re-building phase and I think they have a solid foundation with Matthew Stafford, Kevin Smith, Calvin Johnson and the newly drafted Louis Delmas. Rome wasn’t built in a day and neither will the Lions. 5. Kansas City Chiefs – OT – Russell Okung – Oklahoma State The Chiefs need help on both sides of the ball.

First he read a Browns blitz and hit Aaron Brown on a bubble-screen for a 26-yard touchdown. Then he threw a nifty pass to RB Kevin Smith for another 25-yard touchdown. He then avoided the rush on a second and five from his own 25-yard-line, stepped up and unleashed a bomb on the run to Calvin Johnson for a 75-yard touchdown, a pass which displayed just how big an arm the young quarterback...

... we might have to worry about the prospects of Massaquoi or Robiskie contributing next year too. WR Calvin Johnson is still a star in the making. For the Lions' sake, hopefully they don't trade their best receiver again, because they'll just draft another one.
