Orlovsky to start against Saints

Dan Orlovsky seems to have earned himself a starting gig. Orlovsky will be taking snaps for the Lions Sunday when they host the New Orleans Saints at Ford Field. Lost among all the losing has been Orlovsky’s not-terrible performance: he’s had four straight 200-yard games. This Sunday could be the Lions’ best chance to avoid making history - the Saints are a vulnerable 7-and-7 and worst in the NFC South.
