Cool. Brad Holmes is willing to overpay for unproven commodities in Broderic Martin and Isaac Tesla, but not an interior lineman when his team's offense is predicated on the oline. No one was suggesting they give up a first round pick for one, but rebuilding teams like the Browns and Jets might have been willing to make a trade at the right price. Did we get a media report of the Lions being after one? All I remember was the report saying we were inquiring about a defensive player from Cincinnati.

Anyone who wants to continue to simp for this team can kiss right off. This is indefensible right now, losing to The Giants. I'm sure we'll still get Bradbots and Danbots defending this crap though.

This team looks awful today, I'm almost every way but their run defense and special teams.

I was about to explode with anger, but great job St. Brown getting the home for the TD.

You can't do that Branch.

Winston carving this defense up early.

If Goff can't count on St. Brown to be reliable, we're in bad shape.

Yes. That's why we wanted a move made at the deadline. The interior of the line looks bad and Taylor Decker is playing hurt week after week.

St. Brown, my goodness.

Nice to see the Giants won't be able to run the ball today. Good recovery drive by the defense.

Are we going to lose to a guy who stole crab legs?

Are you ****ing kidding me right now? What a disaster of an opening drive for the defense.

Annnnnnnnd Hutch jumps

First play, ugh

Lang seemed surprised by it himself and wondered if running more deep routes, fade routes, could help the Lions gain a few more penalties.

(Edited out). Remember, this is exactly what they voted for.

People need to pump the brakes on their enthusiasm for next year. Do I think Democrats take the House back? Yes. Do I think they will have a 10-15 seat majority? Possibly. Do I think they are going to blow out Republicans and gain 50-60 seats on a single cycle? No. The country is simply too polarized for those types of wild swings we used to see in House elections of years gone by. Furthermore, Democrats aren't winning the Senate. I love Sherrod Brown. I wish Democrats ran more populist progressives like Brown across the country. But I feel Ohio is too far down the Republican rabbit hole now to win and they aren't winning it back with Sherrod Brown. I also don't think they're winning Alaska, Iowa, or Maine in the Senate. Everyone predicted Susan Collins was cooked on 2020 against Sara Gideon. Not only did she win, not only did she overperform polling expectations, she blew Sara Gideon out by over 8 points. I tend to think Collins holds on again. Mainers like her labotomized way of thinking and speaking it appears and whatever folksy charm she has to offer. Without Maine, it will be impossible to take the Senate in 2026 and very hard in 2028.

TJ Lang read a stat on Friday on Valenti's show that I thought was both interesting and concerning. The Lions offense hasn't caused one, single, defensive pass interference this entire season. TJ said he went through all the game logs and verified that the offense hasn't caused a single DPI. He attributed that to how off the passing game has looked and the lack of deep route designs this offense hasn't been running. That's shocking that through 10 have we haven't caused one DPI.

LaPorta being out is significant to this offense in both pass catching and pass blocking for Goff. I think Goff lost a security blanket over the middle and a reliable 6th blocker up on the line. This team believes in the next man up mentality, so hopefully Brock Wright can step right in and not experience too big a dropoff.

Does it bother you at all as a fan, or make you impatient with Cossa or Yzerman, that Wallstedt is currently on the NHL roster and looking good for The Wild? Wallstedt is a guy Yzerman passed on for Cossa and he was believed to be the more NHL-ready goalie at the time.

Jesper Wallstedt was drafted by The Wild in the same draft as Cossa. Wallstedt is already on the NHL roster and has played in 7 games this season so far with a 2.20 GAA and a .926 SV%. Meanwhile, Cossa has played in zero games this year and doesn't look to be getting called up any time soon, if at all this season. I don't know if this is more of an indictment on Yzerman, Cossa, McLellan, their developmental system, or a bit of each.

The same voter who voted for Epstein Pedo Donald Trump. No one voted for Larry Summers. You voted for a child pervert who walked in on teenage girls changing at a beauty pageant and is named countless times in the Epstein files and was Epstein's best friend.

Trump had 4 kids by 3 different women. I guess 5 crosses a line for Lolic, but 3 does not.

I agree largely with what you are saying here about the wall of teams not existing this year. That said, they still have to get through Florida. Once Florida is healthy, I expect them to return to being the top of the division. As well, I still see Montreal as slightly ahead of us, even if they aren't at the moment. We will see how they fare over the next few months as far as being better or about the same as us.

Speaking of selfish, me first folks, our President is the ultimate example about this. One of the least generous, least charitable, most narcissistic, solipsistic people on the planet. A man who has ripped off people with phony charities and charitable scams. A man who also been divorced multiple times and cheated on multiple wives. You don't seem to have a problem with that.
