The autopsy of Michigan football’s kneecapping loss to arch-rival Michigan State began in the underbelly of Spartan Stadium and spewed into Schembechler Hall, where players and coaches spent the week dissecting their mistakes and assuring the media their season wasn’t over.

If the Wolverines could win their remaining four games, the possibility of reaching the Big ten title game remained.

RAINER SABIN:How Hassan Haskins helped Michigan bounce back and hammer the Hoosiers

Such was the mindset when Jim Harbaugh’s club returned to Michigan Stadium to face an Indiana team on the other end of the spectrum, desperately searching for its first conference win. The stage was set for a confidence-restoring beatdown.

But as the Wolverines controlled what they could during a thorough 29-7 win over the Hoosiers, one of the things beyond their purview reared its ugly head. For four quarters Saturday, a stream of Michigan players flooded in and out of the medical tent along the sideline as injuries ravaged Harbaugh’s team for the first time all season.

Detroit Sports Update 10-20-2021

Detroit Lions Lose Yet Again

According to Microsoft Bing The Lions have a 10.5% chance of going 0-17 to become the worst ever. The Detroit Lions hold the distinction of being the first 0-16 team before the Cleveland Browns joined them. Hue Jackson coached an even more dysfunctional Browns team back then. But much like that lead to Baker Mayfield and the 0-16 Detroit Lions lead to Matthew Stafford coming to Detroit there’s hope. However this year's NFL Draft class doesn’t have the sure fire Quarterback stud in its class.

Lions with The Projected Number One Overall Pick-

https://www.espn.com/nfl/draft2022/story/_/id/32122088/projected-nfl-draft-order-2022-no-1-pick

“The Detroit Lions have the best chance to pick at No. 1 in the 2022 NFL draft, according to the updated draft order projections (1 to 32) from the ESPN Football Power Index (FPI). The Lions are the last winless team in 2021 after the Jacksonville Jaguars broke their 20-game losing streak with a win over the Miami Dolphins in London. With the win, the Jaguars are now projected to have the No. 3 pick.

There already have been five trades involving first-round picks in the 2022 draft, with the New York Giants projected to have two top-11 picks. The Philadelphia Eagles are currently projected to have three top-15 picks, thanks to deals with the Dolphins and the Indianapolis Colts -- the latter of which involves a conditional pick based on quarterback Carson Wentz's playing time. After spraining both ankles in Week 2, Wentz has played every snap since.”

Red WIngs Hot Start-

The Detroit Redwings have earned 5 points already on the season. 

Number One Overall Pick Cade Cunningham To Miss Pistons Opener-

Pistons guard Cade Cunningham has been ruled out of the team's season-opening game against the Chicago Bulls due to a sprained right ankle.

Detroit will host the Bulls on Wednesday night without Cunningham, the No. 1 overall pick in this year's NBA draft. Cunningham hurt his ankle early in training camp and did not play in the preseason.

Detroit is counting on the 6-foot-8 guard to help restore success.

The Pistons have earned a spot in the playoffs just twice since 2009, when they ended an eight-year playoff run that included their third NBA championship, two Eastern Conference titles and six trips to the conference finals.

We are lining up for the marquee matchup we’ve wanted since Tom Brady left The New England Patriots for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Does it probably sting for Belichick that Tom Brady won a Super Bowl the very same year he left New England? Absolutely lets think about how competitive both men are and how driven both were during 20 seasons together. But thanks to the NFLs Schedule we only had to wait one single year before the two winners faced each other in a regular season game. Since New England is currently a dumpster fire, at least they’ve won more games than the Detroit Lions.

Ahead of Sunday’s game against the New England Patriots, Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady’s relationship with his former head coach Bill Belichick has been put under a microscope. We will also discuss the book in this article breaking down Brady vs Bellichick for the first time ever. The Buccaneers remain a favorite to repeat as champions after retaining nearly all of their core players from last year’s team. Brady said he’s driven by a desire to prove Tampa Bay general manager Jason Licht and head coach Bruce Arians right for taking a chance on him.

But if those things happened, no one within the walls at 1 Patriot Place is willing to admit it. There is stress in that building — but there always is. And while it seems to have heightened this week, it’s not just because of the homecoming of the greatest player in franchise history, but also because the Patriots are 1-2 and just fell flat on their faces against the New Orleans Saints. Mac Jones took over for Cam Newton who was signed to replace the departed Tom Brady.

New Book “It’s Better To Be Feared”

New England Patriots book goes inside secretive and controversial franchise and Robert Kraft, Tom Brady and Bill Belichick. This book was announced publicly this week considering everybody in the entire sports world is fired up about this game this week. The book has been refuted by both Tom Brady and Bill Bellichick.

In the end, Tom Brady just wanted to say goodbye — in person — to his longtime coach. But according to a new book to be published next month, Bill Belichick said he wasn’t available and insisted the two New England Patriots legends talk on the phone.

The book claims that Brady wanted to say goodbye to Belichick in person before officially leaving the Patriots as a free agent in 2020, and that the veteran head coach “said he wasn’t available and insisted the two New England Patriots legends talk on the phone.”

Belichick was asked about this excerpt from the book during his press conference Wednesday afternoon, and he was quick to refute it. 

“No, that’s not true,” Belichick said. “And I’ve heard a few things about this book, and it sounds like it’s a lot of second, third and fourth-hand comments. But I’m not going to get into that. I’m going to focus on this game and try to prepare for this game.”

Even though Belichick told Brady that he was “the best player the league had ever seen,” Brady told a friend the fact it came over the phone was “telling” about how badly the duo’s relationship had deteriorated over the years. The book, “It’s Better to Be Feared,” by ESPN senior writer Seth Wickersham, will be published Oct. 12 by Liveright Publishing. It’s based on hundreds of interviews with a range of sources, including previously confidential emails, texts, game plans, scouting reports and internal New England studies — including one in which Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Tiger Woods and Brady were interviewed about personality traits that fueled their greatness.

Penei Sewell's trial run at left tackle is almost over, and as well the Detroit Lions rookie has played, he said he expects to be at a new position when Taylor Decker returns, perhaps next week.

"I want him back," Sewell said after practice Friday. "Whatever that looks like, and I think that’ll be him being on the left and me back on the right. And it’ll just make our line so much more better. He’s already a big name in this league, he’s already established himself and I’ve got to do the same."
