JIM SCHWARTZ...
“I just got done doing radio and I took a lot of questions on where we think the team is and what kind of training camp we had, what kind of preseason we had and the only answer that I have is: none of that matters. The only thing that matters is how we go forward from this point. Preseason don’t count; how we did in training camp doesn’t count; it’s how we respond during the season – 16 regular season games and on after that. Try to put preseason where it is; let’s not read too much into in and let’s go to work next week for Chicago.”

LIONS CB PAUL PRATT TALKS ABOUT HIS 102 YD INTERCEPTION RETURN FOR TD.

“I’m just so happy. Once I caught that ball, I got up so fast and I saw nothing in front of me. I saw one lineman coming and I said, ‘Ain’t no way he’s gonna catch me.” Once I broke to daylight down the sideline I was just running like everybody was chasing me – and my teammates were the only people that were chasing me. It’s a great feeling. I can’t really explain how I feel right now.”
