Old Lion
Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain
Happy T-Day. 12:30 ET Fox.
Bears might be as bad as Lions and just as beat up.

I actually agree.WE ARE WINNING TODAY
Did you watch last week? Reynolds being other teams trash is well earned. It was a nice catch though.So they picked up somebody's trash and he's immediately better than any WR they have? Hmmm, perhaps they don't have to be quite this bad during their rebuild.
A few drive kills drops, and 1 drive killing penalty. It was not pretty.Some. I take it he was bad.
I am fucking SICK of the 3rd and long draw play. It is just giving up! On 3rd and 31, why not throw long? It probably won’t be complete but at least you allow for a PI call, a defensive hold or that low chance of a grab. Fuck, that shit pisses me off, run the game the right way.
I have no idea what you guys are talking about... just started watching the 2nd quarter. LOL... the past is going to catch up to you though, I get to fast forward through commercials.I am thankful the Lions played a decent quarter. imagine if we got 4 of those in a game!
And 39 yards of that total were on one play, actually a great TD pass under pressure. But you can't sustain drives like this, it simply doesn't work.I'm at work, but I looked in at one point and Goff was 14/16 for 90 yards. Man he really turned it on after that to finish with 21 completions for 170 yards.
By comparison while I'm writing this
Dalton 24 completions for 300+ yards
Derek Carr 19 completions for 300+ yards
Dax Prescott 21 completions for 250 yards
Several times this year I've been surprised by just how low their yards per completion is. I don't care if you have to sign bartenders or Mark Wahlberg or whoever to come play WR, you have to move the ball downfield more than this. I'm not sure if this is an offense thing, or a WR thing, or a QB thing; but my God is it unwatchable. I'd rather just watch the QB yell "Five Dollars" and throw the ball as far as he can every down. We may still lose every game, but at least it would be funny to watch.
