I’m surprised they kept 9 OL. Although that could change.

https://www.detroitlions.com/news/lions-announce-roster-moves-x0035 Lions announce roster moves Aug 30, 2022 at 04:02 PM Allen Park, Mich.— The Detroit Lions announced today the following roster moves: PLACED ON RESERVE/PUP: CB Jerry Jacobs RELEASED: QB Tim Boyle LB Jarrad Davis TE Devin Funchess DL Bruce Hector RB Justin Jackson T Kendall Lamm T Dan Skipper WAIVED: WR Maurice Alexander CB Cedric Boswell TE Derrick Deese T Obinna Eze CB Mark Gilbert LB James Houston RB Godwin Igwebuike WR Tom Kennedy CB A.J. Parker K Riley Patterson T Darrin Paulo WR Kalil Pimpleton LB Anthony Pittman CB Saivion Smith WAIVED INJURED: DL Eric Banks WR Trinity Benson DL Jashon Cornell G Kevin Jarvis S C.J. Moore

Parker is probably better than the slot corners on a few teams rosters. I think he’s got a good shot of landing on a 53 somewhere.

A little surprised by this one. Probably good news for Lucas and Hughes or they have their eye on someone on the wire.

First thought is that Boyle doesn’t get another shot anywhere but then I remember that Nathan Peterman still keeps getting invited to camps.

Very possible during the season but I don’t think so at this point on the NFL calendar. There are only one or two teams that may be open to trying a new kicker after going through an entire off-season and preseason. Neither of our guys are established enough to get anyone to bite right now.

I’m confused. What do you guys think Spirit in the Sky is about?

They don’t need a big name backup. They need someone that if called upon has an outside shot of winning an NFL game.

Davis, Pimpleton, Lamm, and Funchess have also been cut.

At least from a roster positioning standpoint, it makes sense to cut both QB’s to give them room to maneuver. They can sign one back in a few days if they choose since nobody is claiming either. They could also do the same with the kickers if needed.

The most impressive part of this show is Erling Haaland being able to dominate the Premier League and play Daemon Targaryen at the same time.

The thought has always been to keep your best OT on the left to protect the QB’s blind side since most of them are right handed.

Good on him. He had a lot of doubters (myself included).

Decker had 2 bad penalties. Jackson had a bad holding penalty. They were unable to get any push as a unit on the 4th and inches from their own 25 which was essentially MCDC challenging them to be tough. I was impressed with Okudah, Hutch, Harris, Walker and Barnes on defense.

The next Hard Knocks episode is going to be intense.

Whatever the justification, the starting OL played poorly tonight. I don’t know whether to be concerned or not but we are all going to find out pretty darn soon.

Personally, I think it’s possible but I realize it’s very not likely we compete for the playoffs even with a healthy Goff. If Goff goes down they will need to bring in another QB anyway to be the new backup. Can’t hurt to start with two since you’ll be throwing someone into the fire during the season to figure out on the fly if they are capable.

Starting OL has not looked good.

Any thoughts of keeping only 1 backup QB need to go out the window. Even if you keep one of these losers they need to pick up someone else on waivers. Personally, I’d cut them both and try 2 new guys.

Big props to RB strategy for taking penalties and still going 1-2. That’s a great move. As for this race, fans complain about circuits without passing opportunities and we finally get to one with many opportunities and it turns into one of the more unexciting races of the season. 🤷‍♂️

Every driver on the grid has been caught saying something dumb during the heat of the race. Emotions run high and especially so for someone that hasn’t won a race in almost 10 years. It’s probably best that he wasn’t caught sharing what he really feels about Lewis since that would’ve gotten him canceled and been the last time Fernando ever stepped foot in a race car.

George just said their strategy team has Max getting up to P5 in just 7 laps in their race sims.

Any optimism coming off the break from Mercedes ended immediately after being 1.8 behind RB. Lewis sounding very despondent and finally sounds like they have thrown in the towel on winning this season. If they were smart (which they are), they will take the advantage that Ferrari did this season and focus all new efforts on next years car. Now watch them win today. Lol.

This is the challenge of recruiting 5 star players. You have to play them as soon as they are good enough or they will transfer and you may not be getting many more of them in the near future.
