Detroit will rush for 175 yards en route to a 26-19 win.

I'll never understand this. The guy didn't choose to get injured. He doesn't seem to have created problems in the locker room either, since his teammates seems like they were overjoyed to see him. Is he supposed to get shunned forever because his body broke down when he was making too much money?

I heard on SiriusXM NFL Radio that Joe Douglas was “consulted” by Woody Johnson on Saleh’s firing. And Johnson spoke to Rodgers before the firing, but not about the firing.

Oh are we doing political commentary in here again? 😉 Saleh dug his grave when he told one of the greatest QBs in NFL history not to use one of his greatest skills. Read the room, dude.

The Bengals are likely to be 6-5 going into their bye in week 12. Giants, Browns, Eagles, Raiders, Ravens (again), Chargers. It wouldn’t actually be all that surprising if they win all of those six.

VILLAIN

Wait a second. Some of us lived through those guys, after having lived through Eric Hipple, Chuck Long, Rusty Hilger, Bob Gagliano, Rodney Peete, Andre Ware, Charlie Batch, Gus Frerotte, Ty Detmer, and Mike McMahon, with the highlights being Erik Kramer and one good season of Scott Mitchell. So consider yourself lucky. 😂

16 game season.

Also only works if your manager and pitching coach are effective in putting the right pitcher in the right situation and preparing him for that situation. And it takes special circumstances and a great deal of alignment between them and the front office. Probably won’t be repeated to any significant degree.

When the Lions win the Super Bowl, wait for it. MCDC will be bigger than Ditka was.

Micah Parsons week-to-week with high ankle sprain. PFT reports they are considering resting him for the next two weeks until their bye. He may not play against Detroit. Demarcus Lawrence on IR. Detroit has not forgotten last year’s game. I agree this will be a statement game.

Well, thanks to the Tigers, it seems like the bye week came at just the right time.

In 25 years when people look back on this run they’ll say, “Well, they did have Skubal, Greene, Carpenter, and Meadows.”

Cards had Pujols, Molina, and a bunch of other big name vets Mets had young Tom Seaver, Tug McGraw, and Nolan Ryan. 64 Cards had young McCarver, Curt Flood, Lou Brock, Bob Gibson, oh and Roger Craig.

Yes. I can’t think of anything to compare it to.

Where does this playoff run rate in Detroit sports lore?

All I see is 17 seconds of Miller and Brown saying nobody has made a signal before they simply assumed it was a TD. Which was about the same thing that happened with Buck and Aikman. Embarrassing job by the officials.

The ref was ten yards away and he never, ever made any indication that anything had happened at all. He might as well have been a lawn jockey.

Someone mentioned missing Barnes setting the edge last night. Reminded me that Walker crushed the team with runs to the edge.

2021 Seattle scored 51 2022 Seattle scored 48 2023 Seattle scored 37 Last night Seattle scored 29 Yes, Detroit’s secondary is improving. Seattle is just a good team. They have one of the best WR trios in the NFL. They have some very physical runners. Geno Smith gets the ball out fast and is hard to bring down. This is the NFL. Everyone has its share of good players and every team is going to make its share of good plays.
