Garcon and Reed benefit a lot from just DJax presence on the field.

Excellent point -- I completely agree. Let's be honest -- if there were no salary cap ramifications, I don't think anyone would be talking about letting DJax (or Garcon, for that matter) go. They're both playmakers and have proved to be good teammates in DC. DJax has been hampered by Kirk's accuracy issues with the deep ball this season (Kirk should probably have another 5 TDs or so), and as the fly route is DJax's bread and butter, it will obviously affect him more than anyone else.

The Lions can be thrown on (and run on too, for that matter). Let's see what happens this week.

To that end, while celebrating yesterday's win is great, no one should look past the Lions. Their offense is humming, and they beat the Eagles, put up a bunch of points on a good Rams D, and nearly beat the Packers in Lambeau (although that isn't looking like the challenge it once was). Now they also lost to the Bears and Titans, and barely beat a pretty weak Colts team, so they're obviously a pretty flawed team. But no one should look past them because any given Sunday (or Monday, or Thursday)....

Oh we are no where near looking past anyone. We can beat the Lions but they can definitely beat us too. We need to be focused every game.
