ASP makes a lot of defensive mistakes but at least he is scoring points. 1-1.

Leonard has had a few chances.

Erick Hallett won't be playing safety for the Lions this weekend. Tennessee Titans took him away.

I thought McIsaac was a steal. Maybe I was biased because of Team Canada world juniors hype and having a nice chat with his family on the streets of Vancouver.

I believe that wraps up the Red Wings’ 2018 draft class, which on draft day looked golden. https://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/draft/teams/dr00005492.html

Hmm, that is interesting. Well then, I'll cheer for the Patriots to beat the Ravens because the Ravens beating the Packers is a key part of my hope.

I’ll be cheering for the Bears to have beaten Green Bay the day before. The Lions aren’t trying to break a making the playoffs drought, they’re trying to break a making the Super Bowl drought. Easier to do that as a #3 seed with at least home game than as a #7 seed needing to face 3 top opponents on the road. A Packers loss keeps Lions’ division title hopes alive. If that means the Lions could go 11-6 and still miss the playoffs all together,so be it.

And up 24-20 on the drive before that, the Lions had a really nice run for a 1st down by Gibbs negated by a holding charged against some dude named Giovanni Ricci.

The assumption (hope) going into this season was that the healthy defense would improve over 2025 and would help offset a possible step back from the offense. Hasn't happened, although was holding up not too badly until the loss of Joseph and Arnold. 2023: PF 27.1, 5th PA 23.3, 23rd (17 games) 2024: PF 33.2 , 1st PA 20.1, 7th (17 games) 2025: PF 30.3, 1st PA 24.6, 23rd (through 14 games)

Minnesota has scored 31 points in back to back weeks.

Yes, you are correct. I missed that one. So 4 times in past 7 games, in a 3W 4L stretch.

Micah Parsons tore ACL too.

So three times farily recently - down 3 to Minnesota, down 7 to Philly, down 7 to LA Rams - the Lions kicked off with around 2 minutes to go asking the defense to make a stop to get the ball back to tie. Failed each time.

I don’t hate the play call up of a throw up the middle but you need to go down 2 seconds earlier than they did. Got it to the 40 and no more plays, but could have got to the 35 and had time to heave one up.

Would be an ideal time for trouble with the snap.

We need to stop it on 2nd and 3rd down then Campbell needs to call a punt block.

Torn ACL reported now

Needed a TD there. Chance of the Rams not even getting a field goal is tiny.

A stop?!

Need a strip sack TD.

Is Teslaa even dressed?

Rams FG, FG, TD, TD surrounding a couple of Lions’ 3 and outs. 20-0 run.

54 second 3 and out. Nothing like giving the Rams possession at midfield against defense. Will be a miracle if hold them to a FG here. And as I type, already down to the Lions’ 11.

Sack. And just like that the game has shifted.

1st and goal wouldn’t have been an automatic TD, the way the Rams have been snapping it today and if the God forbid the refs decided to call offensive holding on the Rams for once.
