4. Johnson obviously has a lot of familiarity with Detroit's roster having spent the previous five seasons on the Lions coaching staff. How can that knowledge manifest itself when it comes time to prepare the game plan?
"I think (my coaching staff) knows they watch the tape. They are really good coaches," Johnson said. "They know who their playmakers are and maybe some perceived weaknesses on their roster. Every team has strengths and weaknesses. I let them do their due diligence and it's always good to have different eyes on it. We talked last night about their roster a little bit and we'll continue to do that over the course of the week here."
Johnson said he knows things about players on Detroit's roster that doesn't necessarily show up on tape and they've had discussions about a few of those things as a coaching staff Tuesday night.
5. Safety Kevin Byard said there's no doubt in his mind that Detroit's offense comes into Sunday's contest wanting to establish the run, especially after struggling in that department Week 1.
"Monday night we kind of let a couple runs kind of gash and with the two running backs (Detroit) has, two really good running backs, they are going to try and establish the run early," he said.
Byard said Detroit's offense is so hard to handle if you let them establish the run. It opens up the play action and the over routes. He said they know how dangerous Detroit is offensively despite not playing up to their standard Sunday in Green Bay.
