TSN: NHL Rumors, Latest on free agents Kane, Kessel as training camps near

I clicked into it but haven't read it yet. Looks like a great read and something that really grounds and humanizes the situation he's been going through.

Have we heard anything this offseason about Josh Paschal and how he's looked? I can recall a significant or meaningful report about Paschal or how he's looked this preseason.

Neon Deion beat a team Harbaugh couldn't. LOL, I know they aren't the same TCU team as last year. But great job by Coach Sanders on getting a big win.

If we acquired Chris Jones I think that would elevate my hype level to probably NFC Championship game status. The hype train has already left the station and acquiring Jones would have it far down the tracks. While I do not at all think the Lions are about to get Chris Jones, in the event they did, no way on Earth does KC trade him before we have to play them. But I don't think Chris Jones is going anywhere but KC. Just as Quinnen Williams wasn't going anywhere but the Jets and Lamar anywhere but the Ravens. All pipe dreams. On top of that, Brad Holmes has shown no penchant to pay big money to an aging veteran or a player that isn't his own, home grown talent. No way is he giving 29 year old Chris Jones, who is about to be on the wrong side of 30, a $30/mil per year deal. No way!

If Tim Scott were gay that would be an amazing troll on MAGA. One of the most conservative, MAGA states and both their US Senators gay, that would be classic.

How long until we get a post critical of offensive play calling? Also, it's too bad MB disappeared. I'd really love to have condensing post late in the 4th quarter as the Lions are making a late comeback about how everyone was calling for Campbell to be fired just 25 minutes ago.

I want to give the Lions the win on this so badly because I'm all aboard the hype train and my emotions are running wild brother. But being being rational, even without Chris Jones, Kansas City has so much fire power on offense and the Lions have historically struggled with mobile QBs and Mahomes is the very best of them. I don't think this game is a blow out at all. I think it will be a slugfest, just like last year's Eagles game was, and come down to the wire. I think we will run the ball down KC's throats and dominate the line of scrimmage on offense. I think they best us only on the better QB front with Mahomes. It comes down to a last second play or late drive to win it. I'm going Chefs 31-Lions 27.

That's a big plus for us. We should be able to try and run the ball down their throats and dominate the line of scrimmage.

I cannot wrap my head around this kicker situation at all. They cut Patterson only to replace him with Badgley, only to cut Badgley and replace him with Patterson, only to be in the market to replace Patterson a second time . . . with Michael Badgley???

Hey Janikowski had a great career and he was a 1st round pick 😂

I will say one surprising name that I never expected to make the team was former 3rd round bust Ifeatu Melifonwu. I was certain Ife would not make the cut. Also very surprised they are only carrying two RBs on this team. You'd have to think they are going to pick someone else up as it would be awful risky to knit carry two backs.

But would you trade your total system of healthcare for our for profit system of healthcare?

But they seemingly knew what they had when they cut him the first time around. So why bring him back if you were underwhelmed back then? You only carry one kicker on your roster, so its not like he's the depth guy kicker.

On another note, since Levi apparently made the roster, do you think he will be starting over Buggs or McNeil at all or have they solidified themselves as the starters at DT for the first few weeks at least?

Then why even bring him back and why not draft one? They had to know he can't kick a 50 yarder from when he was here before.

So the Lions are apparently in the market to get another kicker. So they let Riley Patterson go, then brought him back in, and are now in the market to replace him again?

I was hoping he'd make the roster with Jamo out. I hope they feel confident and comfortable with their depth at WR, because I'm not sure I do.

That was really terrible to watch. I feel real bad for Nate Sudfeld. He was in all likelihood making the roster under the NFL's new rules that allow for an emergency gameday QB and now he won't be. Damn!

Not Jamo. But yeah, they thankfully didn't have any other major injuries and that is a victory itself.

RIP Bob Barker

WOW, turnover city for the Lions.

Nice throw by Bridgewater, nice route and catch by Green for the TD!

I hadn't realized yet today that Isaiah Simmons was traded to the Giants. It also appears the Cardinals are privately telling people that Kyler Murray might not play this season. What a mess in Arizona.

A Levi sighting on that tackle.
