Hey, we can’t blame anyone in the Motor City for being a little confident right now. Three-and-oh is quite nice.

But when was the last time you heard anything like this coming out of a Lions player’s mouth?

“When we play how we play, we can play with anybody.”

We were thinking the same thing.

That quote was courtesy of Lions RB Jahvid Best, who puffed out his chest just a little bit Thursday on “Around the League” when talking about his undefeated team’s upcoming matchup with the Cowboys.

We’ll see if the Lions walk the walk in Dallas, but all the 16-0 confidence that Ndamukong Suh brought to the table during the offseason seems to be rubbing off on his teammates.
