We've battered the Detroit Lions enough in this weekly feature. They're bad. And the 10-week forecast calls for continuous, uninterrupted badness.

We've also devoted plenty of recent attention to the lack of defense in Kansas City. This week's Skinny explored the subject, as did Sunday Scene. For details on the specific failings of Glenn Dorsey and Tamba Hali, we recommend this column from the Kansas City Star.

So if you're looking to play match-ups in Week 8 and you're hitting the waiver wire, consider JT O'Sullivan, Josh Morgan, Antwaan Randle El, Leon Washington, and various Patriots RBs (preferably Sammy Morris, but LaMont Jordan gets a look, too).
