This is NOT the same old Lions.
But they are still the Lions. This is why they will lose the next two weeks and clinch the division with a win at home in Week 17.
Vikings 23
Lions 20
“If you put aside winning, we’ve made a very big difference in the community.”
Maybe the NBA will start to include charity work into the playoff model.
Gores kept mentioning a group of 8 players under 22 and salary cap flexibility like that matters. He’s stuck in 2008. They have 1 elite young player and need to do everything in their power to find just 1 more. If they are really lucky they find a good but not elite 3rd option and after that fill in the rest of the roster with guys that take and make a 3 pointer.
Edwards is the ultimate front office simp. He’s so pathetic. I can’t imagine he’s got any credibility left with this fanbase.
I won’t be a bit surprised when he eventually gets fired from The Athletic and is hired by Platinum Equity in some capacity.
Lions 36
Broncos 35
Badgley males a FG at the end wins a crazy see-saw game. Gibbs goes wild and fills the stat sheet and scores twice.
Nobody said it was going to be easy but Lions still win division and make playoffs.

This isn’t a must win but it’s close. Let’s all hope for a Giants upset win over the Pack tonight. If not, they will probably have to beat the Vikes 2 times to get in over GB.
The line stunt on the Fields TD run was egregious. You can’t leave half the field undefended with a mobile QB on 3rd and 11. I have no idea who to blame. Was that Hutch going on his own or if that was a line call sent in from the coaches? Terrible play that has been too indicative of this team recently.
I’ve been begging for it but this is the week that maybe you want to play back and make Fields beat you with his head and arm and not his feet. If you give him the chance, Justin Fields will usually make a bad decision to cost his team.
