Vanden Bosch is all over Leftwich, line still doesn't look to good for the Steelers...Moore was in for the 2nd series, Mendy may be done for the night already.

Best is looking very explosive, using the LT jump cut!

Stafford has thrown a couple of fade/jump balls to Calvin, both didn't have enough air under them. Just completed a back shoulder stop pass to Calvin for a TD...

Isaac Redman looks like a beast, running players over and spinning to elude players...he will make the team this year...

Antonio Brown looked good and showed some nice hands and speed...

Rookie WR Antonio Brown led the Steelers with three receptions for 84 yards and a touchdown while adding one rush for eight yards.

Brown didn't play until late in the game, but he left a lasting impression when he took a short crossing route pass and turned on the afterburners for a 68-yard touchdown. He and third-rounder Emmanuel Sanders have both impressed in camp. Brown has a legit shot to nail down the final receiver spot, and he's an interesting stash in Dynasty leagues.

My analysis: Lions first team defense was surprisingly good. I was looking for some more explosion from the offensive side but am satisfied with how they spread the ball around. The injury to Dizon will hurt--as the second half showed, after the starters, we have no depth. Sleeper guy: Aaron Brown. He looked much better and prepared for this game than last season.
