Lions vs. Packers Official Game Day Thread

[Wazmankg]

The fact that we haven't fire our strength and conditioning coach a long time ago is bad enough, but the fact that we continually lose guys every game makes me think our players are just freakin soft. Pisses me off!

The strength & conditioning coach needs to be fired ? Lol. That's a new one. Oh come on. It's the NFL. Guys get hurt.

 

[Dr. Evil-er]

This was a statement game right? Well, we made one.........we suck

 

[Pushn40]

Dude, NS, but GB losses dude like clockwork every freaking game.....for 4 STRAIGHT YEARS! That's not "just the NFL". We're either soft, have shitty coaches, or both!

 

[RobBase]

Sweet game. All these Mayhew picks and the only guy who matters is a Millen pick. Go figure.

 

[Wazmankg]

The Packers have playmakers at the WR position. The Lions don't. Game over.

They have a great group of WRs. Apparently their run game is underrated too if today is any indication.

McCarthy is so flipping stupid with late game runs. Why in the hell would you go heavy? They're successful when they spread it out with 3 wide formations and take guys out of the box, not in heavy when everyone and his cousin is inside. It's like he wants to prove to himself they can't run, freaking moron...

 

[Wazmankg]

His first foot hadn't quite come off the ground yet when he caught it = TD.

 

[obxyankeefan]

are these announcers talking about? His second foot came down out of bounds, rather he crossed the plane or not doesn't matter.

It matters if he gained possession of the ball before it crossed the plane

No doubt. We "might" win today, but I don't think we can get all that excited because the Lions were down Megatron, and that had a huge impact on the game, and the Lions gameplan today. Now, if we had won the game with Megatron in the game, I'd feel better.

Unless you have something that shows the Pack loses way more guys to injury than average I don't buy it. The strength & conditioning coach needs to be fired ? That's unique. I've never heard anyone bitch about their strength & conditioning coach, so kudos on breaking new ground there.

Yeah. I thought his first foot hadn't come off the ground when he caught it. I guess it had.

He has to complete the process then get both feet in bounds before he can become a runner. If the receiver has not done both of those things it doesn't matter when he crossed the plane.

Actually, there are stats that support this. I'll look the up and get back to if your hung up on this!

Yeah, goal line was irrelevant. It was about whether it was a catch or not. I'm surprised they overturned tbh.

You didn't hear me in 1995 bitching about UVA's.
Lost to Michigan in the bighouse because our D got tired and gave up 3 TDS in the last 10 minutes. 17-18 final play
Lost to UNC on a last minute TD 24-27
lost to Texas on a last second FG 16-17 Becoming the only NCAA team to lose 2 game in one season by 1 point on the last play.
Lost to Va Tech on 2 TDS in the last minute. I forgot the score
Beat FSU only because Warrick Dunn got stopped on the 1 yard line on the last play
Beat Georgia in the Peach Bowl because of a Kickoff return for TD after giving up the lead in the last minute.

 

[Dr. Evil-er]

More garbage yards and stat padding, just like last years losses. Whooopeeee

 

[Wazmankg]

Well we can move the ball against a prevent D down 3 scores inside 3 minutes so at least there's that.

 

[Wazmankg]

"We welcome those of you who have just joined us " ??? Why TF would they cut to this game ?

 

[Pushn40]

Would've been a completely different game with CJ in the game! Would've liked to have watched that game instead of the lousy game we watched today. Game two in your house will be a big game indeed! Good luck till then folks! Thanks for letting us in your thread this afternoon. Our board sucks compared to your board!
