Markus Rendell's blog ::Matthew Berry is Atrocious at His Job, Don't Ever Listen to a Single Word He Says
In their previous three games, leading up to their November 4 contest with Jacksonville, Detroit Lions' wide receiver Calvin Johnson has been inexplicably absent in the first two quarters of each, having pulled in a total of one reception during the stint. Hampered by soreness in his knee, speculation ran rampant as to whether he would be available to participate in a game that could, ultimately, be described as a "must win." Sitting at 3-4, clawing their way back from a dreadful 1-3 start to the season, Detroit would need a healthy dose of "Megatron" in order to pull to .500 and give a slim bit of hope to the remainder. Wish granted. Johnson entered EverBank Field for just the second time in his career. The first, still as a member of Georgia Tech in the 2007 Gator Bowl, he had notched nine receptions for 186 yards and two scores. Apparently, those thoughts remained etched in his memory as he delivered another big performance within the confines, catching seven passes for 129 yards in the Lions' 31-14 victory. Arguably the best wide receiver in the NFL, Johnson has performed at a near-superhuman level since he arrived. The obvious choice as quarterback Matthew Stafford's primary "go-to guy," the downward-trending performance of the Lions' passing attack this season had placed much of the scrutiny on the duo, especially Johnson. Whatever the reason behind it, against Jacksonville, it appeared they had solved the issues and were able to regain the explosive offense fans had gotten used to seeing. Granted, the incredible performance of running backs Mikel Leshoure and Joique Bell, who ran for four touchdowns and 143 yards, kept the defense on their heels and opened up more opportunities for the passing game. It was Johnson, however, who stole the show with another demonstration of why he is considered the National Football League's best receiving talent. Johnson ran a receiving clinic, boasting everything from leaping to diving; hauling in seven of the eight targeted passes Stafford lofted his direction. Against an athlete of his caliber, there was little the Jaguars' defense could do to contain him. Detroit is still, though a long shot, in position to snatch one of the Wild Card spots in the postseason. With the potential of Stafford and Johnson regaining their illustrious form, the odds are beginning to increase in Motown's favor. The author, D.
