Lions Win Loss Prediction Thread.

[Thruthefog]

I demand perfection. I gave myself no consideration for being close (although I contemplated making an argument based on the Buffalo debacle, but in reality, I made my prediction based on one 'what the fuck was that?' loss).

11-5: realist
10-6 and below: hater
12-4 and above: hopeless kool-aid drinking homer

Are those the measuring sticks for this year?

Hmmm, what category will I fall in?

Last year, the haters took over the board. This year, the kool-aid drinking homers will rule.

11-5 Division champs

Big Blue and Meebs were the only realists last year.

And TP was a hater, so I'm not sure what his beef is with the haters. He are one.

yeah, but my so-called realist automatically turned into rainbow club for stating they'd be Division Champs

Mebert was the only Spot-on realist

Doesn't matter. You weren't asked to predict what the rest of the division was going to do. Only what the Lions were going to do.

(For godsakes Blue, you know from past experience that you won't be on top for long. So while you're on top, SPUR AWAY!!! I can't believe you're trying to give it back. Now. Let's take it one more time from the top...)

I picked them to go 5-11

Spoiler alert: I'm dyslexic.

This year I got them going 12-4

okay then. I like to refer to myself as that hidden gem of a closer that has absolutely no chance, so I'll usually start to make my move right about the 3/4 pole and by the time I hit that 1/8, I'm in full stride and closing many a gap..... winner, nah, but close was where it was at 4 me.

I'm afraid Meebs won't be any easier.

C'mon Meebs. Show us what you got.

Right now I have them below .500, which is a safe bet after a winning season for the Lions... but I want to see what happens in the draft before I make any prediction.

Damn straight. I'm going all out for realist this year. And God help you all if I hit it.

GIVE ME THAT THING

GIVE ME THAT THING

Not bad. But you're obviously new at this.

I would probably start every post with something like: "Since I am one of only two realists on this board, and you obviously know absolutely nothing about football.....(and then I would pontificate in my best 'orton4prez' manner).

^^^ I can always be mentored

I just have this small problem......... memory

That's the beauty of it. You are a realist. Memory not necessary.

7-9 if we stay focused and pound the rock

I've always thought of you as one tough mudder.

I've always thought of you as one tough mudder.

that's right and I don't need any dang mud caulks or blinkers.... I just sit back, let it all unfold in front of me, then when it's time to pounce, I'm raring to go. It's a hard charge being pinned on the rail only to make gaps clearing to 5-wide is awe inspiring to say the least.

6-10

I agree with 7-9 if we "pound the rock" like Caldwell seems to want.

9-7 if they smarten up on offense and are a pass first team.

 

[RobBase]

The Lions never beat winning teams.

2015 home opponents: Minnesota Vikings, Green Bay Packers, Chicago Bears, Oakland Raiders, Denver Broncos, San Francisco 49ers, Arizona Cardinals.

3-6 at home

2015 away opponents: Minnesota Vikings, Green Bay Packers, Chicago Bears, San Diego Chargers, Kansas City Chiefs, Seattle Seahawks, St. Louis Rams.

1-6 on the road

4-12 final record

Lions could easily end up with another top 3 pick next year.
