Motown Bombers

Does Gores have a daughter he can transfer ownership of the team to?

Apparently Caleb Williams didn’t look good.

Stephon Gilmore is still a free agent. If the Lions weren't satisfied with the rookies, there's a pretty decent option sitting out there.

The media spent at least a year telling us a recession was coming. Who can forget that Bloomberg headline that the economy was supposed to be in shambles by October?

Reminder, this was Bernie Sanders press secretary:

Goff's numbers stack up well with most QBs. He just doesn't win style points and hasn't shaken all the narratives from the Rams.

One thing we will see from the Biden presidency is that accomplishments mean nothing. Biden is the most accomplished president since at least Johnson and people act like picking Biden is the lesser of two evils.

I've noticed the PFF people don't like Goff but their grading system does.

Biden challenges his lies all the time. The networks don't want to cover it.

If Dan Campbell ever finds himself out of a coaching job, the networks or going to fight each other to hire him as an analyst.

Most of the national media didn't even watch the press conference. Campbell was up there for about 90 minutes and talked a lot of substance. They all focused on the kneecap quote. There is a disconnect between the national media and players and fans as that speech was well received by fans and players. I was skeptical about Campbell because he wasn't a play caller and I was ready to put on the pads after that press conference.

Biden's age would just be replaced with something else if it were Whitmer or Newsom. My guess is a non stop reel of homeless regardless if they are in California or not for Newsom and a 24/7 Detroit crime blotter if it were Whitmer. The limited polls out there show none of the top replacement candidates fair better. On top of that, we did have a challenger in Dean Phillips who failed miserably.

Replacing Biden would not have helped at all. It's not a communication issue. The media would continue to fail to report accurately on the economy regardless of if it were Whitmer or Newsom.

These are always fun to watch years later.

I mean Trump used biological warfare to try to assassinate Biden by knowingly showing up to the debate with COVID. Chris Christie almost became collateral damage.

Goff and Stafford are mirrors of each other. Stafford peaked in year 3 at age 23 when he had that 5,000 yard and 41 TD season and the Lions won 10 games and made the playoffs. Goff was 23 at the start of the 2018 season and had 4,600 yards and 32 TDs and went to the Super Bowl. From 2012 to 2014, age 24-26 seasons, Stafford regressed. He had only a 59% completion percentage, 83 QB rating, and 48 INTs. Stafford had talent around him. He had, at various times, during this stretch Calvin Johnson, Golden Tate, Pettigrew, Bush and Bell. Goff from 19-21 regressed, age 24-26 seasons, and had a 65% completion percentage, 89 QB rating, and 37 INTs. Goff was better during this down stretch, however, a narrative was started because the offensive genius of our generation benched Goff for Wolford (LOL), and paid a 1st round pick to make him go away. Stafford stayed in Detroit and remained irrelevant. In 2015 Stafford was paired with Jim Bob Cooter at age 27 and took off. Probably Stafford's best season as he set career highs in QB rating and soared to a 67% completion percentage and kept the turnovers down. Stafford would go on to play at this level for the rest of his career. Jim Bob Cooter is an afterthought. No one wanted to hire him as head coach. No one gave him credit for resurrecting Stafford. In 2022 at age 27 Goff is paired with Ben Johnson. A TE coach who never called plays at the NFL level, and Goff had one of the better seasons of his career. He set a career low in INTs and his QB rating jumped to 99.3. Goff has continued to play at this high level ever since. Ben Johnson, who has never called a single offensive play without Goff as his QB, gets all the credit.

Somehow I still think the international community will blame the Jews like they are now.

FWIW Goff has more 4th quarter comebacks than Stafford since the trade. The games against the Bears and Cowboys immediately come to mind.

How come Goff doesn’t get any credit for making a 4th round pick into a star? Or making a rookie TE into a star? Or making a waiver wire receiver like Reynolds into a solid 2/3?
