number20 Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 Unless they completely blow it (which is certainly imaginable), the Lions look to be on track - so far anyway - to possibly win the North. If they do that and add a playoff win, that's pretty good progress. This doesn't look like a team that would get any further than that though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 All the horrible loss did was calm everyone down about where their ranking was in the rest of the league. Baltimore could lose to Arizona this weekend. It doesn't mean were worse than Arizona, it just means that sometimes its a bad weekend or you have bad matchups with injuries and so forth. I don't think anyone thought the Lions were worse than Carolina last year but that game was almost worst than this loss. How bad they lost definitely should make the team concerned about some of their weaknesses. To me they are where you want a team to be in a 3 year of a major rebuild. You want to be a playoff team with a chance to be better. You have a great core of young players. You built really good offensive and defensive lines. They do not have generational QB so you will need to keep on drafting good and make good decisions in FA and trades. If you want to compete for a long time. With great drafting after round 1 makes it where a team can afford to make mistakes on first rounders. That is the difference with this team and past teams. Past teams rarely had top level talent after round 1. Past teams couldn't afford to miss on Carter. Or make the mistake with Jaymo. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichiganCardinal Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 I feel bad for the Bills. That city deserves a champion, but it sure looks like something is just not working right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichiganCardinal Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 Meanwhile Tampa makes a 57-yarder early in the 2nd but then won’t try a 59-yarder with 19 seconds in the half. Make it make sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lordstanley Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 I’m afraid I have to start paying attention to the Vikings again. Darn. 24-3 over the Packers and a lot of winnable games on their upcoming schedule. They could go on a run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichiganCardinal Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 I feel a little bad for Cousins. He gets a bad rap out there but you can’t deny he puts his heart and soul into the game. Probably was his last snap as a Viking too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motor City Sonics Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Niners have lost 3 in a row. The Broncos are goin to beat the Chiefs (unless something crazy happens). That's why I am not worried about the Raiders tomorrow. Lions had a bad week and they aren't going to let themselves off the hook tomorrow. Angry Lions team. Motivated Lions team. Monday Night national game in THAT stadium? Take some earplugs Michigan Cardinal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motor City Sonics Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 (edited) So the Broncos are up 21-9, inside the 2 minute warning.........Chiefs have no timeouts left..................Broncos have the ball, so Sean Peyton calls a timeout.

lordstanley Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Eagles are the only 1-loss team in the NFL now. Seahawks are 5-2 but have a brutal stretch coming up - in a 7 game span they play SF x2, Baltimore, Dallas and Philly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
