Uh...don't know why I though fff had done that. Thanks, CFL Guru! :)

I think it might have been because the Detroit logo is on top, confusing my tiny little brain...

I hadn't realized this fact..

But I'm sure that the 7 FG's last game did not help, of which I think 4 or 5 were from the red zone...

And being without your starting RB and WR don't help this either..
