Lions shown a little respect?

NFL Rankings - ESPN

I know where a post like this is headed but ESPN ranks the Lions 12th coming into the season despite the off-season. This is Lions Nation. I now open this up for the shit talkers. Lol

Almost Top Ten, like a Wildcard team.

SHIT

We would probably be #1 with that one dude that skated off for green pastures and that one dude that didnt get drafted by any team. True story. Lol

We are better than Philly too. That's a team that could turn into a dumpster fire this year and Chipper could be out of a job.

11th would be about right. The schedule will not allow us to make the playoffs most likely. If we do, that would be something. I could be wrong. Too early to tell. Once we get through game 3 of the preseason we will have a better idea.

The good news is we wont have to wait long to find out as 4 of our 5 toughest games are in the first 5 weeks. We could be 1-4 early which would make it extremely difficult at that point. Need to start at least 2-3 to have a chance.

Wait until they get a load of us!

More likely the Lions will be picking 12th.

They were the 12th best team last year and lost their best player. Until they can prove they can beat winning teams they aren't a top 15 team.

The off season is always the Lions fans Super Bowl.

How the Dolphins aren't #1, #2, #3, #4, and #5 on this list is beyond me?!

Apparently someone didn't get the memo that Miami signed the best tackle football player to ever lace up a pair of cleats. He's worth 26 wins a season all by himself, thats why we had so much success as a team when he played for us...

Because it is power ranking. It does not take into consideration teams schedule. Based on their cupcake schedule Miami will end up in the top 5 record wise.

Im not sure how you do it? How can you root for a team you figure has already lost? Isn't this what Lions fans want? A tough schedule?

Damn Lionstop, we gotcha already...

 

[broncosmitty]

Vegas has us with the 14th best odds to win it all. (Dolphins are tied for 7th for those of you who are overly concerned.)

Typical homer. You drooled over Suh daily when he was a Lion, now you make jokes. Go pop in tapes of the Lions 10 seasons before Suh came to town if you want a good laugh, and a reality check.

I'm not sure how YOU do it. Gobbling up everything this regime puts in front of you. Same fans rooting on Mayhew now are the same exact fans who rooted on Millen back on CBS.
