Shoots Fired! Griffen Calls Out Robinson...

Griffin just put more pressure on himself, not smart IMO.  Just play and let the results show.  

Yeah, I don't get it.  Not typical for our D to talk before the game.

This just might inspire Robinson to tighten his brassiere & bring it...  ;)

wow, that is awful.  He makes TJ clemmings look servicable.  The flat feet, lack of power.  Wonder if Griffen is setting him up somehow.

I wonder if Griff know the guy gets flustered with smack talk and is starting early to get in his head all week?

Stupid thing to do and say...

I'm sure coach was pleased.

Very stupid. Pretty much guarantees Robinson will give 100% effort Sunday. Probably fired up their whole offensive line. Just keep your #$%^ing mouth shut and play. You want to say this privately in the meeting rooms? Go for it. But to say it to the media guarantees they will run with it, which they did both local and national. This is the kind of shit that puts Griff just below a true leader status, you don't say stuff like this.

I've got this gut feeling that Detroit is going to wax the Vikings big time on Sunday.

Only thing I can think of.  Already playing mind games.  EG has to be about the worse interview because he just repeats what the coaches said.  Cliche after cliche after talking point.  So this smells like something intentional. 

And no way we lose to the Lions in our house again.  Stafford is going to get his ass kicked again.

I think Everson has enough equity to be allowed a little slack here. Sitting at 4 sacks through 3 games he is doing alright. Besides it isn't like we haven't had great Dlinemen talking smack before.
