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.

He got flagged almost immediately in the first game for DPI on a marginal call. Now he has the reputation of being “handsy” and all close calls go against him. DC will need to work on the refs and AG/DB coach need to work on his technique. But these DPI calls are all coming with TA in the hip pocket of the receiver. He always seems to be where he is supposed to be.

I read somewhere that they banned dunking after Jimmy Graham broke the goalpost.

Smith is a good player. He has very good receivers. DK Metcalf is basically impossible to defend.

😂

It took a perfect game by Goff to beat Seattle.

These are two weak calls.

JAY-MO!!!

Oh yes he did!

DA-VID MONT-GOM-ERY!

And the WR most like Megatron, DK Metcalf, continues to torch Detroit.

I would love to see an offensive explosion but I expect it will be a close game. Detroit will try to pound Seattle’s decimated DL. Goff can’t be back there in 3rd and long. Seattle will pick on Arnold and whoever is replacing Branch at safety if he can’t go. Detroit 26 Seattle 24

The Lions have had a hard time containing mobile QBs including Geno Smith because they have had bad players on defense. Now that they have better players on defense they are playing better defense. I don’t know if Detroit will win tonight, and it won’t be good if Branch has to sit, but I would be really surprised if Seattle puts up 30 this time.
