Game Thread: New York Jets vs Detroit Lions 7:20 est ESPN

[Rob]

Guys....guys.....I'm thinking we're gonna have to cut back our expectations this year.

Dallas sucks and the Dolphins are who we think they are. 2-14. Please give me a reason for hope Matty.

Good thing we cut Zettel. We really needed those 4 TE's.

Agree, they're so valuable especially in blocking schemes.

 

[Thruthefog]

This offseason had to be the most retarded in franchise history. And that's saying something.

There isn't enough weed in the fucking world.

 

[phantomfoul88]

As a Michigan fan, no. They are garbage too.

Agree, but CF in general is more enjoyable.

Toilolo looks like he would be a good DE. I dont want to see any TEs on offense. 3 wide with Riddick in the backfield with Johnson as well. One of them in motion on every play.

At least Michigan wins the games they are massively favored at home, I'll agree.

Exactly. Toilet...nagonnaberehere made one play. Otherwise we have no TEs.

Johnson seemed to run ok, but they refused to put him in the game.

I don't get that, he was running pretty well. At this point he's probably asking Auburn for a 5th year

Staff may die if that happens.

Welp.....Wrong, I was.

 

[Thruthefog]

MARTHAAAAAA!!

 

[Mebert]

This may surprise some of you guys, but apparently the offense is predictable and the Jets knew the plays before the snap.

We need to hire the super genius that can crack the Jim Bob code of play calls!!!!!

 

[Thruthefog]

This game was an accurate microcosm of the Lions offseason.

In the first 15 seconds, Quinn fired Jim Caldwell. AND THE CROWD GOES WILD!!

Then we witnessed the last 59:45 of the offseason.

As much as the team sucked last night.

I think the blame is solely on the shoulders of Stafford. He came out and threw 4 picks. The team just followed it's leader down the toilet.

Stafford was awful. No question. There were also some drops, and the whole offense was poor.

But the game was lost, imo, when the defense allowed the Jets to march right down the field and score a touchdown immediately after we opened the second half with a TD drive. The air left the sails of the team right then and there. It shouldn't have, but it did. That was all she wrote.
