Fitz tweaked a hamstring in practice. I already had a lean on Lions anyway, so I just went ahead and made it official at -1.5 -108.

Tailing as well!Comment -
My team is average. Lions also missing a lineman, Bush slightly dinged up, and Lions never win at certain places in which Arizona is one of them. Only issue I have is I am having a hard time putting my money on Carson Palmer and I plan on rooting for the Lions. I am solComment -
Had my eye on this one also. Made a thread about it this morning. Thanks for the injury update.Comment -
I like Cards. No play though now.Comment -
He's playing, told all the local media he was fine. Tweaked it 3 practices ago. The "Game Time Decision" is most likely gamesmanship by Arians. How effective he will be is another question. Cards only kept 4 WR's on their roster. If Fitz goes down, you have Roberts, Floyd, and Brown, all pretty average. The TE Housler is hurt and out. The O-line is below average and Brown is bottom 5, if not the worst left tackle in the league.
The Lions will get plenty of pressure up the middle. If Brown cannot improve from last week's performance, Palmer will not have much time to operate...which he needs due to the fact he has zero scrambling ability. Phoenix University Stadium will have plenty of Lions fans as well. Not quite as dramatic as when the Cowboys come to town, but you'll be able to hear a lot of cheering when the Lions score. Last year's game was a case of the Lions beating themselves. The Cardinals defense has taken a major step back. New system, DC is a downgrade, Washington is suspended. The Cards don't have a lot going for them offensively. They cannot keep up in a shoot out. I teased the Lions. If the Cardinals win, it's going to be a late FG, OT, something dramatic.Comment -
i like the lions, their front 4 will get to palmer and force rushed passes. last week the lions outplayed the vikings and aside from that one big run by AP their defense played very well. with bush this is when the Lions take that next step.Comment -
The cardinals are still the cardinals to proven otherwise, ill take det. And ill tease them aswell cause it'll be some dramatic shit if they loseComment -
Detroit should get so much steam 24 hours from game time.... scary actually. Sounds like a trap.Comment -
wasnt det laying like 5 or 6 in zona late last year? now only a pickem type game? zona blowout cityComment -
Unless his hamstring is complete torn off the bone Fitz will play. 90% of NFL players tweak something in practice and still dress up to play on Sunday.Comment -
Palmer is one of the biggest losers in the NFL even though eh ahs pretty good stats
Cannot deliver in big time moments kind of like RomoComment -
As I said in Post #1, I already had a lean on Lions anyway, so there is really nothing to lose by betting them now. If he plays, OK I'll live with being on a team I leaned on anyway. If he doesn't, I probably got a great line.Comment -
Thx for the update on him.Comment -
This can't be good.
Kerry Taylor - WR - Cardinals
Cardinals promoted WR Kerry Taylor from their practice squad.
Saturday signings are often made when teams anticipate injury situations affecting their Sunday rosters. Larry Fitzgerald is questionable with a hamstring injury, so it's possible Taylor's promotion is an indication the Cardinals are worried he'll miss Sunday's game against the Lions. Beat writer Darren Urban calls Taylor "Larry Fitzgerald insurance." We hope to have a more definitive update by Sunday morning, but the Cardinals and Lions don't play until 4:05PM ET, putting fantasy owners in a bind. Keep an eye out for updates.

Cards will win!!!Comment -
Lions will prevail!!!!!!Comment -
ARZ easy, stafford throws 3 picksComment -
Louisville I disagree the offense line of Arizona is horrible. I say take Detroit. The only way Arizona wins is if they get some turnovers on their side and give Palmer some short fields.Comment -
while that true who would you say has the worse secondary? sure palmer will take some sacks but he will have guys roaming free while peterson will lock up megatron and if im DC i use honey badger to shadow bush, all a sudden stafford doing what he does best and forcing balls into coverage that get picked.. not to mention big time special teams adv for zona..no way am i ready to lay a dime in points or juice with the dumbest most undisciplined team in the league on the road simply cause they beat a totally overrated shit vikings team at home..it zona or nothing in this one and not saying passing a bad idea but playing det is..the over prob worth a look (long as fitz a go) as both teams will have few big plays and both will turn it over leading to scores as well...Comment -
The one thing scaring me away from Arizona is that Palmer loves to stay in the pocket... Detroit tackles should collapse it a lot...Comment -
yea i have no doubt he will take some hits and prob fumble it away once or twice. trying to decide if i think that will negatively impact cards more than the pick or 2 i suspect stafford throws and also the superior field position zona should have with their special teams..im still not 100% but know im not touching det, still looking at the over as well as that and zona the only 2 playable sides imo..Comment -
Got Lions ML $1.862 earlier in the week, feeling all right about it.Comment -
I see Megatron having a big game than Reggie Bush for this week against the Cardinals defense.Comment -
Anyone want to bet me money that Fitz will play today? This is the most important game of his career and he won't miss it.
Anyone knows what's the Lions record on the road as a fav or pick em?Comment -
one of the places that sends updates to my phone told me a hour ago he playing so id say if there a lock this weekend that would be it (you can prob still find a few hamburgers around here that would take the bet tho!) ..hell fitz could whip this secondary in a walking boot...Comment
