The TEAM looks better when Lane Johnson plays.

Did dullass clone Wentz during one of their contests? 

Well, I think almost everyone here has been saying the same thing since week 1. Run the ball. I guess we planted the seed too late as it took 8 weeks for this flower to bloom. Still, it is Detroit, so not too much to get excited about. But to pound them so solidly was impressive. The O-Line is built to run the ball. The one Assistant Coach we have worth anything coaches the O-Line. Next week we will see if we stay with the run. Chargers also have a weak run defense. NE pounded them on the ground.

   I doubt we win this game but we sure as heck could make it close by running the ball again. Nice to see. Again, it was Detroit. I am happy we did a good job running the ball finally. But Detroit was flat after they pulled all stops last week and came up short. It showed yesterday...

 

 

Wentz completely choked that game away

Just terrible decisions

In case you haven't noticed Wentz isn't here anymore.

Living in the past is unhealthy

IDK WTH to think.I wasn't expecting this. I even though the Lions would win in a close game. So what can we make from this? I know the Lions are bad,even so we saw a pretty effective team and I'm not used to that lol. Hurts didn't need to pass because the run game WORKS and if you ket the Oline function NOT on an RPO college level,they can open holes . I wanna know what SANDERS thought about it

Well they had that game won(the Colts did) and it would have helped us alot if they would have won that game.

So,how do you evaluate a team like this? It's a total nightmare. Everything we thought we knew, just went down the toilet. Every play of every game for 6 games.just got wiped out. I suppose we'll know more next week,but really,this makes it nearly impossible to know what you have or need

Fan base in Detroit(what little is left) ,is in complete meltdown on their boards lol. Some even want to team moved to another city LMAO. Seriously I don;t see how the coach keeps his job. I mean WE have been humiliated and to be humilated by a team who is humiliated,is humilating. Been saying since DAY ONE that Howard should have been on the active roster instead of the 3 clone RB's. he's the basher we need for short yardage. but he did MORE than that yesterday(17 fantasy points). So now going forward WHAT DOES THIS TEAM do with him??? When Sanders returns I would be really PO'd if they put Howard back on the PS. Thoughts????

I thought of those poor fans in the seats (and at home) watching the Lions be walked all over. Just like we did as fans so many times in the past 😔

Ever since I saw the opening day roster I've been in awe as to WHY Howard wasn't in the rotation. Just makes no sense to me.

I can see Sanders being traded if someone offers a 3rd or maybe a 4th and 6th...

IDK,how would he have done yesterday???? I mean we DO have talent at SOME spots and it's totally NOT being utilized. Minshew went 2/2 also(not many yards but at least he wasn't 0/2) After yesterday I am MORE confused than I have been all year

Now that Flaaco is gone perhaps that roster space is for Howard?

BTW Cincy (Desmond Ridder) is ranked #2. They play in a so so league. I would love to see that team play a big time school to see if that ranking holds up. Cincy's program has really been improving the last 3,4 years 

https://www.nflmockdraftdatabase.com/big-boards/2022/consensus-big-board-2022?pos=QB   Ridder holding about the same.BIG changes at the top. Rattler has fallen off as has Howell. Imagine alot of changes still to come at the QB rankings,but Ridder has remained about where he is here. I like that consistency. I would spend a 2 pick on him

https://www.nflmockdraftdatabase.com/big-boards/2022/consensus-big-board-2022?pos=ALL  At the moment I have Neal,Leal and Elam for us in round 1. Maybe Ridder and Derion Kendrick in 2(OT,DL,CB,QB,CB) so in 3 I would be looking for a LB and I like McClain from Auburn there

If we aren't going QB(we should) in 2,then Metchie at WR

Yes it would have AND Wentz lost the game for them

My point is dwelling on what might have been is not productive at this point

Well when it’s a guy choking that left…..it feels better 

They have two easy games next, so their record should be 5-5 . I would think Wentz will play no matter what. Why would Reich chance another melt down like he had in Philly?

You have your priorities backwards.

There's a 1st round pick at stake

Von Miller traded to the Rams
