55fan 5,133 Report post Posted February 5, 2016 So the Lions new Gm and assistant gm are both from the Patriots front office, here's to hoping we get some of the success they've had in the last decade and a half. That's a good fit. The Lions have been finding new ways to deflate our balls for years. 1 jimmyemeryhunter reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ram 240 Report post Posted March 29, 2016 What exactly is Quinn doing with all the free agent money he isn't using? Wasn't that whole Calvin retiring thing supposed to help the team? Lot of holes to fill and all cannot be taken care of with the draft. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Echolalia 2,961 Report post Posted December 13, 2016 Honestly even before the Stafford injury I was hesitant about their ability to close out the season, but now after struggling to beat the Bears at home and with Stafford's throwing hand banged up, my confidence level is quite low. :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Echolalia 2,961 Report post Posted December 13, 2016 He wont miss any time, and didn't during Sunday's game, but his throw was clearly affected. Two interceptions and his completed passes was lower than it should have been too. 1 NerveDamage reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NerveDamage 4,176 Report post Posted December 13, 2016 the thing with the lions, imho, is that they haven't been thaaaa good. They had a rough start and most wins have been 4th qtr comebacks. a few by our offense and a few won by our D. So anything can happen. It's just nice to finally have some thrills at Lions games now.

NerveDamage 4,176 Report post Posted December 20, 2016 (edited) Week 16 playoff scenario LIONS The NFC North will belong to the Lions if they win and the Packers lose/tie or if they tie and the Packers lose. If they don’t win it, the division title will be up for grabs when the two teams face off in Week 17. Detroit can also punch its ticket with a win and a Buccaneers loss/tie, with a tie and a Buccaneers loss or by tying while the Bucs tie and the Falcons win. They will also get in should the Buccaneers lose while the Redskins lose/tie and the Falcons win. or as the song goes...

kylee 727 Report post Posted January 5, 2017 (edited) Lions had a chance to avoid this mess and play someone else (like in 2014) and couldn't get it done. Easy win for Seattle, as much as I hate them. Edited January 5, 2017 by kylee 1 NerveDamage reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
55fan 5,133 Report post Posted March 24, 2017 I keep hearing rumours that the Lions are looking at Adrian Peterson. Anyone hearing that? Or is it just because I live in the heart of Vikings territory?

Ram 240 Report post Posted April 25, 2017 Where is the biggest need to be addressed at the draft? I want defense. With the upgrades made the offensive line, if we have at least 1 or 2 more playmakers on defense, could actually be really excited for the season. Typical Lions to make us excited then let us down...
