Dominic RaiolaDominic Raiola has played all nine of his NFL seasons in Detroit, never finishing with better than a 7-9 record — and that streak isn’t ending this season. So he’s allowed to have some pent-up frustration.

He let some of it out Sunday during the Lions‘ 17-10 home loss to the previously winless Rams, firing off some choice words at a group of Detroit fans who were heckling rookie quarterback Matthew Stafford. Detroit’s final possession of the game consisted of four Stafford incompletions (plus two more pass attempts wiped out by penalties).

After the final misfire landed well wide of its intended target, a few rowdy patrons let Stafford have it — yelling “Hey Matt, throw it to me, I’m open, I’m open,” according to Raiola, who quickly came to his QB’s defense.
