  1. I think that last part can’t be understated. An okay or mediocre WR can be made into a really good WR with the right QB chemistry. See Kenny Golladay. Not saying Kupp is Golladay, to be clear.
  2. I think week 7 is optimistic on the Vikings part. They’re not going to be an easy win by any stretch, they’ll always be pesky… but I think they’re going to struggle this year and miss Cousins quite a bit.
  3. I’m really bullish on Jamo this year and I think the Lions are too. I think he will surpass Reynolds production with ease. I think I’m more optimistic that Antoine Green will take a step forward in his second year than I am that DPJ will return to 2022 form. I’m not sure either are all that likely, but I also don’t think either is necessary if at least four of ASB, Jamo, Gibbs, Monty, and LaPorta are healthy. If you suffer multiple skill player injuries then depth will become an issue on any team, even Super Bowl contenders.
  4. The safety, Ryan Neal, looks worse than Davis on this play. Neal is in the 1x1 with Jamo and never even attempts to locate the ball. Davis drops to cover ASB which is what caused the 1x1 though. Based on this video, it’s possible that the slot corner or a linebacker was supposed to cover ASB, but he would have been wide open if Davis didn’t cover him, so you can’t really blame him. Doubling Jamo deep at the expense of leaving ASB wide open in the intermediate would be outrageously stupid. But I hope Jamo makes teams do it this year!!! Davis is 6’1, fine height for a corner.
  5. I liked this clip more when the Tampa corner who bit on the ASB route wasn’t also on our team.
  6. Not a great look. I’m not sure what the conflict is at Ford Field on 6/8. Nothing is on their public calendar until a Zach Bryan concert on June 20th.
  7. Maybe put his family on the video board for fans to boo though.
  8. I think Jamo is the replacement for Reynolds and then a committee replacement for Jamo if Antoine Green doesn't take a step up. Jamo felt like more because everyone always noticed when he touched the ball, and it tended to come in big spots, but he only put up 24 receptions for 354 yards and 2 TDs last year. Add an extra half reception and 10 yards per game to LaPorta, Gibbs, and Raymond, and it's surpassed.
  9. But can he throw the deep ball? /s
  10. Counting playoff games, Stafford is 40-43 at Ford Field. Goff is 17-11.
  11. I chuckled, but I like Tim Robinson
  12. I’m glad they got this deal done.
  13. How do UFL playoffs work? Do we play the undefeated Stallions? Or any chance of hosting a playoff game?
  14. At least they tried once they were down 9
  15. Got em right where we want em
  16. Just relocate. Come back when the curse is broken.
  17. Giving up two runs with this offense? Take your L.
  18. The game doesn’t go faster if it takes 18 innings to score a run.
  19. No one goes perfect through 5 on THIS Tigers team 😤
  20. Forget the no-no, he’s perfect through 4.
  21. Unpopular opinion: I could do without the pandering to the military at every single professional sporting event.
  22. Beautiful day for a ball game. And Happy Mother’s Day!
  23. I remember in one of the Inside the Den segments from last year, Antwaan Randle El mentioned that he is another room during the draft. If I had to guess, there is one central televised war room, with just the most essential organizational decision-makers (Holmes, Campbell, Sheila, Wood, Disner, Speilman, Dorsey, etc.) and then two or three additional rooms that are consulted with sporadically throughout the night that include the offensive and defensive coaches and the lower-level scouts. With as many people as Quinn had in the room, I’m sure there were times when there were factions fighting in six different directions over one pick. You need the right number of cooks in the kitchen.
  24. I still think Jamo got a bit railroaded by stupid NFL rules. Sure, you can say he should have known them, but surveys that went out after the fact showed that most players didn’t. You can gamble, from not in this parking lot, or this hotel, or that facility, but across the street from any of those is fine.
