And he went first overall. Gives me hope the Lions will draft a QB 1st overall.

If the Bengals gift wrap a win to us like Baltimore tried to last week, it's possible. As long as our offense controls the clock to keep our defense off the field.

I predicted 3 or 4 wins. But 0-17 wouldn't surprise me.

No, some people here say we'll beat them because they're so bad. Probably the same folks who said we'll beat a bad Bears team.

But some people think they can beat Cincinnati.

Maybe the Lions will play good in the 2nd half. This team really is unwatchable. Can't even snap the ball. WTF?

I'm glad we got rid of our slow linebacker. Just so we can put other slow linebackers out there.

Cool, I just noticed this Thursday's game is the Rams at Seattle. Go get 'em, Matthew!

But that was about 4 or 5 head coaches and 2 or 3 GMs ago. Finding a QB like Stafford isn't easy, no matter how many 1st round picks you have.

Detroit stopped Baltimore's offense because Baltimore dropped 3 TD passes. Easy catches. It should never have come down to a 98 yard field goal. 😅😅

I'm not sure anyone would be surprised if the Lions lost to Cincinnati.

I can't answer that until I see the schedule for next season.

Same with me. I got vaxxed at Kroger and when I went to my PCP, I asked them if they wanted my card for the info. They double checked the info they already had and said it matched up. Edit; and anyone caught using a fake card should be sentenced to community service on a covid floor of a local hospital. Let them see how bad it really is.

A team isn't built on 1st round picks. You need later round picks to actually build a quality team. Identify the talent and then coach it up. The Lions haven't done this in my lifetime. As for ruining kids lives? Yeah, all these current Hall of Famers haven't even won a playoff game. Stafford now has a chance once he got away from the worst run franchise in all of sports. And trading up is just what I think they will do this season to get the highest rated QB. Try to replace Matthew and prolly strike out. Never forget the Charlie Batch, Chuck Long and Andre Ware picks. It took us years to find an elite QB and we traded him away. Saying something positive for you to defend the Lions history for the last 60+ years. I will give you this. It's an incredible accomplishment being so bad, for so long. Almost impossible. Quite a streak.

The thing about rooting against him so the Lions can get a better pick? After all these years, does it matter if we pick 24th or 30th? It doesn't matter, we'll end up picking some player nobody ever heard of or trading a boatload of picks to move up and ruin some kids life. Hall of Fame running back? Hall of fame receiver? Yes and yes. Future Hall of Fame QB (for 12 seasons?). Again, yes. And how many playoffs wins? A big fat ZERO. So go get 'em Matthew, make Detroit sorry. It took over 50 years but I'm finally rooting harder for a team other than Detroit....sigh.

True but only one team had the talent that didn't play to their ability. Baltimore played as bad as they could and still beat the Lions. They tried SO hard to give it away....

I wouldn't say the Lions actually played very well. The Ravens dropped at least 3 passes that would have led to scores. We got lucky and still lost.

Is it time to start draft watching and guess what kid's life we're gonna ruin?

Maybe Stafford will prove to all of his Detroit haters that he wasn't the problem in Detroit. Put quality players and coaching around him and he's an asset.

It was actually a very fun game to watch. The Ravens played way below their capabilities. They dropped 3 potential scoring pass plays.

Against the Super Bowl Champs on a team that has a legitimate chance of dethroning them as NFC Champs. I agree, Stafford's biggest game.

Go Rams!

Agreed. I think (hope) everyone involved knows the damage a work stoppage would cause. It's not a good time for hard line negotiations.

Wow. I just realized we went 7-3 in our last 10 games. Do it again and we finish the season at .500. Unexpected.
