Lions vs Panther Game Thread

[Old Lion]

Hopefully, we can win this one. No D Williams and Cam probably rusty. I am still worried about Olsen. Our LBs can not cover TEs, I don't care what the numbers suggest. Last week a no name TE put up big numbers on us already. A big WR like Benjamin will also be a challenge.

Will be interesting to see if our offense can do well against their defense. They are one of the best in the league and would be a good indicator of just where the offense stands.

They better, considering that 40-spot Carolina will put on our defense. Eli was going to do it, but they forgot how much he sucks until after the game.

Miss the whole game today. Have wait for replay on NFL.

Hopefully there is some good critiques about it.
Well hopefully not popcorn debate about Ebron

If you think 5 grabs for 55 yards and a TD is a big day, then you're probably going to be calling for the defensive staff to be fired if and when a TE actually has a big day.

I don't know why we suddenly can't cover TEs? We were actually very good in that department last year from what I remember. Levy was a monster back there, and, even though he's short, Tulloch holds up surprisingly well in coverage.

I think Benjamin will pose a much tougher task than Olsen. Olsen is a decent TE, though, and I share your concern over him having a big game...

What I do like is our defense's chances at containing Newton in the running game. Our OLBs, Levy and Whitehead, are both highly athletic and can really run, so that helps a lot against a QB who likes to break containment. We also have some DEs who can get up and go, so that bodes well for us, too...

I hope you are kidding. I doubt Carolina could put up 40 against our defense in 2 games, never mind 1.

Pretty sure he is just mocking posters who were saying all off season that everyone would put up 40 a game on us and the lions need 50 a game to win anything with this team.

Stafford nimble today.
