crazy money for jamaal williams would be crazy. i like the guy, he's a solid contributor, but he gets what the oline gives him. you can get that out of a lot of backs. bring him back on reasonable terms. if he gets a crazy money offer you pat him on the back and let him go. they have a lot of other positions of need. cominsky was huge for them. what a great waiver pick up. buggs seemed to be better at the end of the year. lets remember, this defense had a bad season. part of that is youth, but part of it is poor play from a lot of overmatched players, especially in the secondary. this team needs an overhaul of the cornerback room and probably the linebacker room too. does derrick barnes improve enough to stick? can okudah stay healthy? is julian okwara going to stay? and does aaron glenn stay? if not, does his replacement run the same type of defense or do the lions switch it up? do they play more zone? if so, that requires different types of corners. lots of uncertainties.

we need an influx of better players at all positions. seider, raymond, and kasper have to hit. larkin has to be re-signed. whatever they get for bertuzzi has to be turned into a valuable player. that's the thing about signing larkin long term, he'll be past his prime when the next great wings team is made. this team is STILL digging out of 5 years of draft hell from kenny.

saints and bucs should suck next year. bears will suck. rodgers will retire. viqueens luck will run out. maybe mahomes gets hurt? lamar is always hurt and might not even be in baltimore next year. by this time next year, the schedule may not look at that hard after all!

the lions are the third team to start 1-6 and finish with a winning record. the other two are the 1970 bengals and 2021 dolphins. the 1971 bengals followes that up by going 4-10. the 2022 dolphins went 9-8, losing 5 of their last 6. what you did last year doesnt always portend good tidings for what you do in the future. right now, the lions are a goff injury away from picking in the top 5 again. as strange as that sounds.

good to see im not the only debbie downer around here!

lions schedule is now complete! home: bears, viqueens, packers, falcons, panthers, broncos, raiders, seahawks away: bears, viqueens, packers, chiefs, chargers, saints, bucs, cowboys, ravens. that is a TOUGH schedule. SIX road games against playoff teams.

i almoat hope they trade down from 6 and pick up another first rounder for next year. then sell the farm to trade up for a qb next year.

even with the refs on their usual pro-packers bullshit the lions still won. good on em. if only the refs in seattle had played fair.

pre season bets: colts to win divison: LOSER packers lions to finish 1-2 in nfc north: LOSER eagles to win division: WINNER bears under 6.5 wins: WINNER really, that bears bet was the easiest money ive ever made. just had to wait a few months to get it.

he wasnt fired because he was black. interim head coaches rarely do well if hired, even if theyre white!

if the vikings lose, the vikes get the lions 2024 4th round pick. if they win, they get the lions 2024 5th round pick.

and the vikings luck into playing the fucking giants in the playoffs. lucky ass team. the lions would have beaten them.

yeah, forego the potential of a lottery pick for....checks notes....noc claxton. this is del hating the pistons raised to the extreme.

goff has not been good in this gane.

with a little luck i already have the next nic claxton. that's the point.

i'll take duren's potential and look to trade boggy for a pick.

as someone from "the other side" of some issues, i try to stay away altogether.

i dont think you can play in the modern nba with two players on the floor who cannot shoot outside of 3 feet.

then what do you do with Duren?

youre right, the lions should try to lose every game every year so they can get the best draft pick possible.

ok, so that's not a big deal.

they pick 6, lol.

who cares about this game now.

once again, baker mayfield fucking sucks.
