one mistake is all it takes to win. i dont see how that isnt exciting, but to each their own.

there's the press from england.

ecuador won 2-0...

neither southgate nor berhalter are known for their tactical "nous". we'll see if they can make a change or just keep the status quo.

US has been much better in this game. but, they were good in the first half of the wales game until wales made an adjustment at halftime to bring in a striker and play long ball and the us couldnt cope. will england make an adjustment? dont know. i dont know why they arent pressing our centerbacks when they have the ball. the us tries to play out of the back and cant, but even our terrible centerbacks can make a pass when they have no pressure. i expect england to press more in the second half. same for the us. england's weakness is harry maguire and john stones on the ball. theyve been doing a good job so far in preventing bellingham and rice from getting the ball and moving forward. let's see if they get more aggressive in the press. gio is the us's most skilled player and he hasnt played a minute yet. id like to see him come on later. maybe a second half sub for wright to add another body in midfield. i doubt one american player would make this english team so being tied with them at the break is a great job by the us. and they were the better team for much of the half.

i dont want a running back in the first round. definitely not with a top 5 pick.

meh. if most of those guys were getting more minutes against better competition, their stats would "suck" too.

green bay will be playing jordan love at qb and trying to lose for draft position.

his shot seems weird to me too. like a push shot, low on his chest.

it worked earlier in the game.

no. even if you like goff, you could use a younger qb to groom for the position. this is a qb league and goff is an average to below average one. they could use an upgrade at the position. now, becsuse theyre the lions, they could use an upgrade at A TON of other positions too...

the percentage play was to sneak the ball for a first down on 3rd and 1 rather than throw a fade down the sidelines to a covered receiver. i remember grbac to howard as fondly as the next guy, but goff to reynolds just doesnt have the same chances for success.

we all expected this to be a loss and they lost. if they lose to jacksonville next week that will be the epitome of "same ol lions."

the league will be a better place when beverly is no longer in it.

wait, people wanted them to go for it on 4th and 1? why? to make it a closer field goal? the bad call was 3rd and 1 when they were too aggressive.

but since kirby joseph now plays for the lions, he didnt.

if they won by three touchdowns he would bitch.

change the coach, change the players, change the stadium, change the uniforms. it doesnt matter. theyre still the lions and they will forever fuck it up.

lolions!!!!

nothing like a little home cooking on thanksgiving.

maybe, but i think you can definitely say that about guard. 🙂

lions up 3 in the 4th quarter. win or lose i think we all would have taken that going into this game.

baby chark, do do do do do do, baby chark

dj chark!

(you can get good guards in round 3...jonah jackson, graham glasgow...)
