I was hoping for 7-10 this year, so this year was great progress. I kind of figured the playoff chase was over when they lost in Carolina. The first Vikings game was such a killer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRamage Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 I'm really not super upset that the Lions won't make the playoffs. In some ways I hope that makes them hungrier for next year, plus I kind doubt they'd make a deep play off run this year. But I do want 'em to knock out GB. I'm really gonna hate to see GB celebrating if they win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing directly controlled by winning those games in the middle. youre right, the lions should try to lose every game every year so they can get the best draft pick possible.

sagnam Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 Officials made tonight’s game unwatchable. That roughing the kicker, missed intentional grounding, fake unnecessary roughness, missed 2x taunting personal fouls all in like 5 minutes. That’s almost unbelievable. Almost. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichiganCardinal Posted January 9, 2023 Author Share Posted January 9, 2023 I’m pissed because that should have been a win absent the blind ass refs. At the same time, what a great season. We are going to be special next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing directly controlled by winning those games in the middle. And there is no evidence that winning one year helps in teh next. We'll have to see in four years whether it was worth it. My fear is that winning a few games here in the middle is going to have a massive impact in 2028. C’mon, it wasn’t a “few games”. 7 wins after 1-6 start and being in playoff contention until early evening of the last day of the season is worth a few draft spots, to me as a viewing fan.

RandyMarsh Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 I got enjoyment out of the Lions play the past 6 weeks or so, does it guarantee anything in the future? No, but ultimately the whole point of watching sports is to get enjoyment out of it and seeing the LIons play well, seeing/hearing the buzz that it generated around the city and having even that glimmer of hope for the playoffs gave me enjoyment. Would having a better pick be worth more in the long run? Possibly but it's not like you can't win with a worse pick so I'll take that along with the enjoyment I got over being miserable for the entire season but ending up with a better draft pick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYLion Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 Eh, I was disappointed for a bit after the result but this has been a great season, they have a chance to ruin the Packers season and it's a big offseason with lots of resources to significantly improve the roster. This is the most hopeful I've been for the franchise's future since..... well....ever. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually REALLY LIKED sagnam's post because it was a nice summary of the many, many crappy officiating instances where they try to F over a team. In fact, I think I am going to have to go back to his post and show him some love to show that there's no hard feelings at all... Peace and love dudes!!!

RandyMarsh Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 The saying "Its the hope that gets you" has rung true today. Earlier today most expected the Seahawks to win and the game tonight to just be for pride and despite that I think most of us was still excited for it, but now after the Rams gave us hope that it could actually be for the playoffs before taking that hope away suddenly I'm just not as excited for the game as I was before. Funny how that works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
