Its was a tough day for many Lions fans as they not that long ago rooted like mad for him at the University of Michigan. They love him....but now they have to hate him. And I think its bittersweet for them to see him as a Viking.

One of my favorite plays of the game. McCarthy recognizes the blitz, changes the play and throws it quickly to Jones for a big gain. There's almost no doubt about it, Wentz takes a sack here either because he doesn't see the blitz or because he waits too long to throw it.
