Didn't they use a 3rd round pick on him? Either they wasted that pick on a player who never plays for them or their original plan was to have him play QB after Goff's contract expired. But then the Lions started winning and the fans started chanting his name anywhere they gathered. The Lions plans may have changed with their 2023/4 success.

That would make it more bearable. I remember when Stafford got extended at 25 million a year. Bradshaw was hating on him for wearing his hat backward while sitting on the bench. Sour grapes from an old man who never made life altering money while leading a team to multiple championships, at least, IMO.

I don't really know much about the salary cap but 50 million $$ has to affect a team's ability to sign other quality players. A backup making that much could probably cripple a team if it isn't structured properly. But that's the risk a team needs to take and I'm all for extending him. It's just that kind of money blows my mind...

Especially with fans chanting his name....at a hockey game!!! 😆😆

All need help around them but you're willing to cut corners elsewhere? Like...receiver, offensive line and on defense? The reason Goff is so good is having very good teammates around him. Take them away and he wouldn't be an above average QB. Sign everyone...lol

But it's also the number of years. It probably would be cheaper to extend him this season than it would be after his contract runs out next year. So say it's 50 million $$ a year? 200 million $$ for 4 years? That just sounds so crazy high. 250 million $$ for 5 years? Gulp...that money is pretty insane...

I don't know. Will Goff be as good without the play calling from Johnson? And just because somebody gave Daniel Jones an undeserved contract doesn't mean that set the price for others. Green Bay has to extend Love, I would pay Goff 50 million $$ a season before I did Love. I just want the Lions to win every season, if a contract for one player means we have to neglect several other positions, I would think long and hard about it.

What would be worse, losing by a point (or within a score) or getting blown away? If they lost a really close game, I would be looking at every single play that may have made a difference. It would be very heartbreaking. But getting blown away would show us this team wasn't ready to play with the elite teams. So I guess we need them to win. 😆😆

I do that for baseball but not football. Pro or college. I'm usually at the edge of my seat. Heck, I can't even eat before a regular season game. These playoffs are killing me. It would be a long, long 2 weeks before the final game. A very long two weeks.

I can't tell what the fans are chanting.

There was blood....Kostin's mouth.

Their streaming app sucks. But it's the only way to watch them, when it works.

Bally Sports is hosed again. I'm getting used to missing Red Wing games. It's the only thing I need them for in the winter. Losing another subscriber.....hurry up Amazon! Edit; it's back. I just lost the 1st period. 0-0.

Tonight's game isn't on my Bally Sports app. Where's it at?

Hit Deebo...often and hard. Repeatedly. And then some more. Get him out of the game and the Lions win. Put an * on it, I don't care. Get. Us. To. A. Super Bowl!!

50 million $$ per year to extend Goff? Hello, Hooker...can you give us the same production for less money?

I would say the Lions best draft is their next one. The one that will get us over the top to being a possible #1 seed. 😆

Uhhh...the Lions can't win and go to the Super Bowl, can they? Please don't wake me up from this dream. It's 55 years in the making...

Bosa scares me.

Sometimes coordinators who get head coaching jobs takes some of the assistants with them. We'll see how it all plays out. I hope both Glenn and Johnson stick around.

The Lions assistant jobs may be appealing to some of the better coordinators.

Replaced him with Patricia, right?

Ohhh..ok. I just saw the blurb they fired their OC. I guess it makes sense now. But...I've never seen a team fall off the cliff in the middle of a season like the Eagles. Maybe teams tanking for the draft but not a team sitting at 10-1.
