michigan is pulling in some quality transfers in the portal. is it possible that they are finally adapting to the new recruiting world? hope so, because their recruiting class this year is terrible right now.

which is a credit to mcvey for putting together such a good staff.

that doesnt mean goff didnt benefit greatly from mcvay. it probably says a lot more about how well ben johnson and dan campbell are doing and that perhaps they should be mentioned in the same converaation.

didnt we nix that trade because bol was hurt? he looks fine to me...

minnesota is a dirty team.

they also won the super bowl after getting rid of him for a qb who did those things better. i dont follow the rams enough to know what their offense looked like when goff was in years 2 and 3, and if it was appreciably different in years 4 and 5 when his production changed. i only know what was in the media following the trade.

i think that's a bit misleading. i think the lions' schedule is a little harder than it looks. the next two games will be tough tests for them. especially the jets game. and the final two games are rivalry games.

people think goff and stafford are similar because the people on this board pay attention to the lions and goff and stafford are lions qbs. stafford is a guy with a million dollar gun for an arm. goff doesnt have that and is much more of a game manager type. they are not really similar qbs. and as we all know, the rams got rid of goff because he couldnt go downfield like stafford, or the rams felt he didnt go downfield like stafford.

au revoir morrocco. that's what you get for booing la marseillaise.

i disagree. i think corum brings something edwards doesnt. and corum + edwards is better than edwards + mullings.

the true narrative is that you need better players to win in football. if the lions think they can upgrade their qb position (the most important position) in the future through a high pick in this year's draft, they should do it.

france lose two more starters (neither of whom would be starting without the original starters being injured) for the game. there arent too many nations that could produce enough talent to make third and fourth string guys who start at liverpool.

ok, then how can you ever analyze anyone who plays football?

i hope youre right, but i would be very surprised, especially without corum.

i think ohio state is soft up front and georgia is going to physically beat them more than michigan did. georgia's pass rush will bother stroud. i think georgia is on a different level than michigan or ohio state.

probably not. it took ohio state fans a few years to figure out how to post things on "the internets."

this is my impression of goff as well.

i see a steady decline since 2018 until this year. look at his qbr. the fancy stats show he dropped off significantly since 2018. part of this is perception. there will be numbers out there that dont show a "steady" decline or a significant decline, but i think there are enough indications that he was playing poorly in LA and here last year to convince me he did decline significantly and steadily.

but, but, but....trash cans!

and now larkin is hurt. out tomorrow.

kinda like mike hart....but a little bit faster. it wouls have been nice to see him play this year against georgia. i think corum is a 3rd or 4th round pick at best coming off that knee injury.

a healthy swift has made a big difference for this team. i dont know if corum is as talented as swift. that said, im not opposed to the lions taking a running back after seeing how well the offense runs with multiple good backs in it. and if swift cant stay healthy, they're going to need another playmaker back there.

if holmes thinks stroud or levis or hooker or that kid from florida are going to be game breakers at qb then you draft one of them. jared goff is not that kind of player. if you dont, you pass on them and run with jared for another year and look to next year's class.

the jets game will be a big test for goff. he had a similar test against the giants and passed it, so there is precedent. the jets are a better defense than the giants, so it should be tougher.

wilson strikes me as a phony. i take things marshawn lynch and richard sherman say with a grain of salt, but now people in denver are making the same types of criticisms. him making some big deal about running up and down the aisles on the flight to london before their london game? give me a break. phony pr bullshit that everyone laughed at. i find it very funny denver gave up multiple first round picks for him.
