News and Notes
Nov 17 WR Calvin Johnson dropped one pass Sunday. He caught eight passes for 84 yards. Three catches for 48 yards came on a two-minute drill at the end of the first half that resulted in a field goal. Johnson still isn't as big a factor as the Lions would like. Yahoo! Sports

Nov 16 Johnson had eight catches for 84 yards Sunday in the Lions' 27-10 loss to the Vikings.

Advice: Johnson has scored just one TD this season and does not appear to be a good selection for fantasy owners despite his physical gifts.

STATS LLC

Nov 16 Johnson led the Lions on Sunday with eight catches for 84 yards.

Recommendation: It's good to see that Johnson's slow day a week ago was an abberration and not a new trend. The more he and rookie quarterback Matthew Stafford (knee) share the field, the better rapport they'll create. And each of their stats will be better for it.
