Forget it, my friends. Peter King has picked the Lions to win, which means they don't have a chance. Read it and weep:
Minnesota Vikings (1-0) at Detroit Lions (0-1)
In 2007 at Ford Field, Detroit beat the Vikes on a Jason Hanson field goal in OT, 20-17. In 2008 at Ford Field, the Vikes overcame a 13-10 fourth-quarter deficit to win 20-16; at the Metrodome last year, the Vikes survived 12-10, thanks largely to Lions QB Dan Orlovsky running blindly out of the back of the end zone. This is going to be an emotional game, the Lions returning home and starting yet another new era. Jim Schwartz is going to send the house at Brett Favre, and I think the Lions will get there a few times and force him into some mistakes.
Prediction: Detroit Lions 23, Minnesota Vikings 21
