1984Echoes

A TWO score lead by the Lions at halftime...? Hmmm....

44 yards by Amon-Ra.

This.

That doesn't make it a loss. As long as they continue putting up points, 3 or 7, and dominating on defense and expanding the scoring differential... Makes that FG moot point.

Why?

Yeah... too bad. The trickery on the actual 2nd down play was a bit too much overthinking...

PS: I agree with you. I just can't stand it anymore. It's like trying to eat a really nice dinner with a group of friends but one guy just keeps...

Under your User Name upper RH corner, you should have in the Settings section "Ignored Users". You can add/remove/adjust whoever you need to in that section.

Josh Reynolds got stripped and fumbled; but Kerby Joseph steals the ball right back from Garoppolo with an interception of JG's ill-advised pass into the end zone...

PS: Yeah, it probably pops a whole lot better in whites...

You got it in reverse: The gray looks like crap. The helmets look great.

I think these helmets look frickin' awesome!!!

The middle of the O-Line looks pretty damn excellent so far...

I think the Lions defense will be suffocating tonight. I think their offense will be "just enough", but not the top 5 offense they've been for the most part this year. Watch the first play be a 75-yard TD to Jamo though; and just blow that right out of the water... "Poorly played"? I don't see that at all. The closest to it as that the interior O-Line will allow problems in the O with interior rushes/ pressures against Goff, and difficulty getting yards up the middle. But poorly played? No way. Campbell won't let it happen. And this Lions team is WAY too proud to do that two weeks in a row. The Ravens game was a one-off, IMO. Lions 23, Raiders 9.

Although... Our 2nd rounder in 2024 might end up as being not all that different from the Vikings 3rd round pick...

I would do it if they would take Minnesota's 3rd rounder (our pick in 2024) and one of our non-Hutch edges back from us...

House Republicans are going to be giving a major STREAM of their Political Polemics. And to hell with anything else. You know, like... governing, compromise, leadership, doing what's right for America/ Americans/ democracy, etc...

Actually, I should rephrase that... I see that you were really asking that question as a response to G2's post, in which: I agree with you... Political gains/ losses based on positions/ history to not change the definition of antisemitism. Antisemitism is antisemitism.

You're asking this question? Trump says "China Flu" and shortly thereafter hundreds of Chinese-Americans, nay, ANY Asian American, not even of Chinese descent, are beaten. Some of them to death. In America. Any excuse to enact violence, against someone who isn't like you (the general you, I'm not stating this specifically to you oblong)... In any country. At any time. Any excuse whatsoever. Religious, ethnic, skin-color... Hatred uses any excuse. Whatsoever.

A pro-Muslim/ Palestinian position. Or simply, a Muslim on the left.

PS: I didn't mean to completely ignore Offense... In its most simplistic terms: Kemp was a stampede rolling to the basket, reminding me of what Duren looks like he could turn into. But all 3 of Kemp, Ewing & Duren look like they can put up points in various different ways (in its most simplistic form, I know Ewing was OLD school) but, also... I hope Duren can sit in the 74% FT's like Kemp & Ewing, and not in the 65% area like Webber and McDyess; which, I think he can. Maybe he'll set a completely new standard and all new PF/ C's coming into the league will soon be compared to Jalen Duren.

I meant on defense, not offense. I won't know how to characterize his offense until he fully develops... I think it's too early to make a call on closest comps on O... But yeah, Ewing is probably ruled out automatically as an O-comparison.

I always thought Shawn Kemp... Maybe because of their builds... I never thought of Webber at all because he wasn't much of a rebounder or shot-blocker, and Duren is a demon on both... But he's trending closer to Patrick Ewing. That's who I'm sticking with (even though Ewing wasn't any more of a rebounder than Webber)... Until I see otherwise.

That's not a great sign for the playoffs either... Either making them, or lasting very long in them... Hope the line holds up till the end of the season...
