Call Out Some Players

[Mitchrapp]

Granted, for the most part the rest of the schedule after Arizona is rather easy.. At least by looking at it. But KC and GB on the road, and if they lose, they'd have to beat everyone else.

I'm actually thinking this season, 9 wins gets you in. But I see them tripping on to someone they should beat.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Truthfully, the NFC sucks. Wouldn't be shocked if 8 wins was a playoff spot.

 

[LKP]

no...basing it on what I have seen out of the Lions so far and what I have seen of AZ and Denver. Both of those teams appear to have significantly superior defenses, AZ has been pretty good on offense and I think Denver will have success offensively vs. the Lions. Things can change...you never know.

The Lions have a better offense than both talent wise. They can put it together at home.

And defense will help at home too. Give me Levy back. This is absolute crap missing our best defender.

Take Ware or Miller off Denver or Calias Campbell off the Cards

Based on what? I know you're this weirded out troll but what do you see that says defense is better than those other two teams?

the first 5 games is their toughest stretch of games. After AZ it appears that they have some winable games.

Bears & Raiders should be 2 wins

MN, KC & @ GB...looks like 2 losses

Philly, GB, @ Rams, @ N.O....looks like 2-2...maybe 3-1

SF & @ bears should be 2-0 but could be 1-1

The way I see it right now is the best they finish those last 11 games is 8-3 and the worst would be 4-7

Miller missed the first 6 games of the 2013 season and the Broncos went 6-0

Our defense is better than their offenses. We match up well, can bring immense pressure and have good coverage. They aren't full of weapons either. Run game can be stopped. Anderson is really struggling especially.

Our offense is good enough to beat their defense but Calvin/Tate need to win their matchups against their top corners.

Miller missed the first 6 games of the 2013 season and the Broncos went 6-0

That was healthier Manning with Clady, Julius thomas and Welker

We went 4-1 without Calvin.

 

[LKP]

Levy is a huge loss when you face Adrian Peterson and Rivers short passes all day.

 

[LKP]

We can get to 2-3 or 3-2 even. And we can finish 9-2. No doubt.

They only way we have a better defense than Arizona's offense is if Stanton is at QB.

Denver does have a weak OLINE but if our defense is better than their offense, then their defense smokes our offense. Just smokes it.

 

[LKP]

And Denver went 6-0
4 homes games, 2 away. 1 away they lost at Seattle giving up 26. The other they beat lowly Jets away

Well...the lions had a healthy Stafford, CJ, Tate & Match-up-nightmare & went 0-2

Our offense matches up well with Denver. We can run the ball on them. We did against San Diego. Calvin/Tate can beat Talib and Harris. Ebron can exploit their LBs and Ward/Stewart.

We'll be at home. Nice and quiet for Stafford on offense. Reiff can play better when dealing with Ware. Waddle back to deal with Miller.

 

[dubbsco]

Their defense is one of the best in the NFL. Detroit's is basically at the bottom. One freaking guy doesn't bridge 25-30 spaces between the two teams.

Reiff can play better with dealing with Ware?? Where does that come from?

No, the Lions offense does not match up well with Denver.

The Lions rushing attack is non-existent. They have shown ZERO.

 

[LKP]

Well...the lions had a healthy Stafford, CJ, Tate & Match-up-nightmare & went 0-2

They didn't have healthy Oline. And Calvin/Tate didn't win against Flowers/Verett. That doesn't mean Talbi/Harris Jr win this week

One guy does bridge it. He stops Peterson and stops the short shit from happening against Chargers. He's all over the field.

And Reid out too. Cudjo/Wright didn't play well Week 2.

Ngata/Walker can play better when not facing Adrian Peterson. Anderson and David Johnson can't hold Peterson's jock

 

[Mitchrapp]

Denver's defense is not SD. Plus, I don't see 69 yards as running well.

lol...CJ & Tate can beat Talib & Harris (the best CB tandem in the NFL) when they couldn't beat SD's CBs!

 

[dubbsco]

Yes, one guy makes the difference between the 2nd ranked defense and the 30th.
