James Schmehl - What's up, guys. The chat is about to kick off, so if you have some questions send 'em Killer's way. Will Calvin Johnson play Sunday? What about Kevin Smith? Ask away...

James Schmehl - Also, just a heads up -- submitted questions must be approved, so be patient. Thanks, guys.

Does Zach Follett have a chance to contribute as a defender next year and not just on special teams? Does the emergence of Levy and potentially Follett make Ernie a tradeable commodity?

Killer - considering the current state of linebackers, i think follett will be a backup for the foreseeable future ... i don't see him nudging any starters out of there anytime soon ...

when was the last time we won a road game? and why should we expect to win one now?

12:10

Killer -

the lions have lost 15 straight on the road and, really, there's not much reason to "expect'' they'll win this one ... the key is getting to hassebeck before he can find those receivers downfield ... that's possible, but not probable ...

according to walter football jeff backus has already given up 6.5 sacks, as much as we need a defender with that top pick do you think the lions may be forced to take the best offensive tackle off the board with our top 3 pick? . also, can anybody still justify passing on big mike oher for the TE?

12:12

Killer - actually, the lions aren't down on backus at all ... he's given up some sacks, but his overall game has been solid ... one coach told me "his mistakes have been few, but they've been glaring'' ... the point is this -- he has to play better, no doubt, but he's not the broken-down ballplayer a lot of fans think he is ...
