He is doing what Ben Johnson does.  Call horrible plays.  

Are you ever happy? Jeezzzz....

I think I’ve learned he’s actually pretty upbeat between roughly 4:30pm Sunday to 1:00pm the following Sunday, following a win. We will get an extended happy TP this week.

13 games in a row we have scored over 20 points. Not too bad...

This team is for real folks. Get used to it.

Also, and I don't want to jinx it but they have Carolina, Tampa and Vegas in 3 of the next 4 games with a bye mixed in to get some guys back plus Jamo just in time for Baltimore so this team could go on a serious run and create some real separation in the division and I highly doubt that a Dan Campbell led team will take any opponent lightly so it's hard not to feel good about where this is headed.

Did you see the last play Johnson called? Goff just took the snap and got down on one knee!

Lol....just giving up. Sure isn't like a college game.

Carolina GDT will be posted shortly after their game on Sunday.

I am just very happy that Brian Branch is not out for the season.   Just thought he was finished there.    

 

I'm all out of gummies...............Dammit,  I was gonna get some today, but then I........well, you know.

Sitting here waiting for midnight, so I can load the new U2 song in the station database and then go to bed happy

I’m surprised you wouldn’t have a “break glass in case of emergency” gummie supply.

The Lions didn't just walk into Lambeau and win, they ripped the soul out of the Packers. In retrospect, that 3rd quarter reminds me of the SOL Lions making a little run after going down big before the other team wakes up and reasserts their dominance. Just a great, great performance.

I did too. I thought for sure it was an ACL the way he went down. Major relief when he came back from the locker room and they were taping up his ankle on the sidelines. The defense had a noticeable dip when he wasn't out there

I think Decker just reminded everyone how valuable he is. It's like a different OL when he's in there

I think it’s more than just Decker, it’s having Sewell on the right too.

Part of the broadcast that stuck with me was the comparison to layups, like asking Sewell, who is so used to right handed layups, to start making left handed layups. I think that’s apt.

let’s get healthy over these next ten days. We’ve got a division to win.

You were at the game so you didn't hear it but the analyst on Sunday brought up that analogy as well.

At first, I thought for sure it was an achilles, but it sounds like best case scenario is a low ankle sprain.

that first half was the beat half i've seen the lions play in a very long time.

He rolled it pretty good...I thought it was an ankle sprain, but had some concern that it was an Achilles rupture.  Seeing him on the training table flexing the foot up and down was a relief

Just reading through the thread now.... so the Lions win 34-20, in Lambeau field, and all I see is TP complaining about Lions coaches lol. My god man, if you can't enjoy a double digit win in Lambeau then what's the point of being a fan.
