Since you negative nancies are all doom and gloom

Which three teams beat us? 10-6 could still get us in so it would take 3 more losses to make the Lions true believers wrong. I remember all your 7-9 and 8-8 predictions right now.
Chicago
Tampa Bay
Minnesota
at Chicago
at Green Bay
 
Does and ave Lions fan know anything besides doom and gloom? Do you think decades of shit are conducive to anything but?
 
you go first.

I'll bet they finish no better than 8-8, Caldwell isn't the answer. he's not known for having good offense teams when the QB isn't Peyton Manning, this shouldn't be any huge surprise I never expected it to regress this quickly and this badly though. The players quit last week hanging their heads stopping short of first downs, dropping passes all over the field, kicking field goals down 3 scores, they all just threw in the towel and surrendered.

5 games left and the division in their grasp. Lots of easy defenses coming up. Lions are in a great position. I'll eat my shoe if they finish 1-4 or 2-3.

Any and all of those teams can beat the Lions.

can't see it when their is no offensive line, defense will have to pitch shutouts and while that's more likely than the offense scoring touchdowns it's still unlikely, Stafford going to have any time to throw the ball Thursday? I guessing not much, hope Lombardi comes up with a game plan that gets the ball out of his hands quickly else they could even lose yes lose to the shitty ass bears. that would be a travesty but it can't be ruled out can it. Nope not with our offense.

Tell me which ones. Lions most probable is to go 4-1.

If I knew I would fly to Vegas.

My best guess is the Bears beat them once & GB beats them on the road. If I had to pick another I would guess that TB beats them.

The Lions always lose a game they are supposed to win.

They really should go 4-1 but I'll say they finish 3-2. Not really sure which game we'll lose besides the GB game. Hopefully NE beats GB this week and we win the next 4 (we will be favored to win all 4) and then the GB game would most likely decide the division.

If we win all 4, and GB loses to Pats and either Atl/or at Tampa, then we will clinch Week 16 based on conference record (head/head, div record would be tied).

I think NE is GB's only potential loss left on their schedule.

at Buffalo, at Tampa, Detroit. Green Bay can lose any of these games easily. More easily than Detroit losing at home to Tampa or to Minnesota or home against Chicago.

That is wrong. GB is more likely to beat those teams than the Lions to Tampa, MN or the Bears. GB has a great offense and great QB. The Lions have a shitty offense and their QB is playing like shit.

Detroit at home against Bucs or GB at Tampa. Clearly GB more likely to lose on road
Lions/Bears, Pack/Pats. Clearly GB more likely to lose
Lions/at Bears, GB/at Bills. Clearly GB more likely to lose as Bills are better
Lions/Vikings, Pack/Falcons Even

Lions already beat Pack. Clearly Lions more likely to beat Green Bay.

Lions are the better team than GB and have the easier schedule. And clearly Detroit is better head to head winning the last 2 games in a row.

When was the last time the Lions won in GB?
When was the last time the Lions won in Chicago in December?
When was the last time the Lions lost to MN?
When was the last time the Lions lost to TB?
