Sports_Freak Posted December 29, 2024 Posted December 29, 2024 The Monday Night game is meaningless. Rest everyone. But Campbell won't, we'll see how many players get injured Quote
Motown Bombers Posted December 29, 2024 Posted December 29, 2024 I hate how Kwesi gets praised. His drafts have been awful, but they fall ass backwards into winning seasons. Quote
Motown Bombers Posted December 30, 2024 Posted December 30, 2024 They converted, but I don't get the point. The only benefit is if they get 10 now, they win instead of tie. Quote

Dan ain't that type of coach, anyway. He wants to keep positive momentum going. I’d sit Goff, Gibbs, st brown, branch and Kerby. 1 Quote
MichiganCardinal Posted December 30, 2024 Posted December 30, 2024 The Packers are coming back despite themselves. Quote
Motown Bombers Posted December 30, 2024 Posted December 30, 2024 The cheesedicks have a chance. Quote
MichiganCardinal Posted December 30, 2024 Posted December 30, 2024 27-25 with 2:18 left and Green Bay has all three timeouts. Quote
MichiganCardinal Posted December 30, 2024 Posted December 30, 2024 Just now, Motown Bombers said: The cheesedicks have a chance. They cost themselves probably a minute of clock by not stepping out of bounds on the pass to the 3 and then running up the middle for no gain on 1st and gaol. Quote
MichiganCardinal Posted December 30, 2024 Posted December 30, 2024 A ****ty performance by the opponent and the Vikings win by 2. A Minnesota classic. Quote
Motown Bombers Posted December 30, 2024 Posted December 30, 2024 If Washington wins, the Packers are the 7th seed and would face the Eagles on the road. 1 Quote
TP_Fan Posted December 30, 2024 Posted December 30, 2024 You have to sit as many people tomorrow as possible. I know it’s not the easiest. But you can’t risk a major injury in an exhibition game. Quote

NYLion Posted December 30, 2024 Posted December 30, 2024 So since the Niners game is meaningless I'd be resting some guys. They should treat it like a second bye week. The Lions depth is already thin as is on defense so it would be foolish to play everybody. 1 Quote

There's no reason for them to do that IMO. Why? As I said before, treat it like a second bye week especially for the guys that are a bit banged up. Quote
Motown Bombers Posted December 30, 2024 Posted December 30, 2024 You can only rest so many players. This isn't a 90 man training camp roster. Quote
NYLion Posted December 30, 2024 Posted December 30, 2024 I'm saying to only rest some guys especially on defense. I'd rest Za'Darius Smith and Arnold to name two, the depth is just way too paper thin at those positions. Quote

As I said before, treat it like a second bye week especially for the guys that are a bit banged up. What's logical and what will really happen are two different things. You sit people and get bounced and the coaching staff will have a hard time getting mentally prepared next week vs. the most important game of the season. Quote
MichiganCardinal Posted December 30, 2024 Posted December 30, 2024 It's just not the Dan Campbell way. If the Vikings had lost today and the Lions won tomorrow, Campbell would have played all the starters against Minnesota too. You don't take the foot off the gas, ever. Quote

The fan next to where I sleep every night has High, Medium and Low. The Detroit Lions do not have variable speeds. Quote
Motown Bombers Posted December 30, 2024 Posted December 30, 2024 (edited) The only team in the division the Packers have beaten is the Bears. Edited December 30, 2024 by Motown Bombers 1 Quote

You're not saying they shouldn't protect the starters, you're just saying Dan Campbell won't rest them. I agree he won't but I would, and he doesn't play them at all in the preseason. Quote
