"And that's all I know. I don't want it to happen. Nobody wants Samson Ebukam Jersey it to happen. Nobody likes to look over there and watch them having a great time because they kicked our a s.Nobody thinks that's fun, but I know that motivates me for next week, it motivates our team. You'll do any and everything you can not to have that feeling again.

"Our energy was good, which is crazy when you come out of a game like that and look at the score ... our energy was good, but our detail and discipline, which has been so good over the last four or five weeks was not good enough, so self-induced."That was a combination of a lot Andrew Whitworth Jersey of different things, and just like we win as a team, we lose as a team. That was one of those."MORE:That said, despite all of the i sues that appeared for the Lions on Sunday, the team still owns a 5-2 record and is in command of the NFC North seven games into the season.
