Mike Burton Just had first NFL catch in tonights game vs Seahawks

[slyker]

Started first series at FB, and they use him often on running downs.

Had a catch for short gain on the second series, then he was stuffed by Seattle on a 3rd and 1.

Tim Wright with big catch in drive for Lions near end of regulation with a chance to tie it or take the lead. Burton also in there making some holes for the Lion backs on the drive. Then Lions fumble it away at the goal line. Ouch

Then Lions fumble it away at the goal line. Ouch

Not to hijack thread, but looks like Lions got screwed on the call. When 2nd Seahawk player batted ball out of the endzone it should have been given back to Lions at the 1/2 yard line.

Way to go, Mike Burton!

Haven't seen many Lions games this year, but hopefully he gets more and more involved.
Not that you like to see injury, but good opportunity for Wright now with Ebron going out. Hope he can take advantage.

Burton seemed to make his plays. Hard to look good with that Detroit OL though.

Timmy has got to add about another 15 pounds. He's getting pushed around trying to block.
