Ebron: Last week wouldn't have happened with me

[LKP]

Actually, just checked a website with offensive line rankings. Stafford's pass pro is 3rd best.
http://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/ol

That is sack %. It's 8th worst in pressure % (higher % than last year).

 

[tomdalton22]

DT 2-4, MLB,SAM and nickel were all upgraded.
OLBS,DEs and secondary in year 2 of the system.

Ngata is a better run defender than Suh and a good pass rusher still.

These are not ifs.

11-5 and a top 5 defense in 2014. I called 2014. And I'll call 2015. I have never failed.

12-4 with a top 5 offense and top 5 defense. Stafford 100 QB rating.

Top 5 PPG is not far fetched for the offense that is loaded with talent.
Stafford is good and has led a top 5 offense before and played well enough in 2013 and 2014 for a top 5 offense. Calvin and Tate are elite and healthy
We upgraded protection (with draft and health) and run game big time this offseason
Year 2 of the system, plus Lombardi can learn from mistakes
Moore can be solid
Ebron is talented and in year 2.

Everything points to top 5.

Not once do you say anything about potential.

 

[dubbsco]

Combined with those, means the offensive line is not NEARLY as bad as everyone thinks.

 

[LKP]

That is all them reaching potential. Clearly there are other scenarios for everything. I can't beleive you are that dense.

It was probable what I said. The improbable happened with some injuries to help it along.

 

[LKP]

Stafford is 76.6% with no pressure with 6.9 YPA. 86 QB rating
43.7 % with pressure and 4.9 YPA. 55 QB rating.

8th most pressured QB in league in terms of % of drop backs. You are insane if you think we have a good Oline based on the sack%

Zero run game. None. 2.8 YPC. Not even NFL caliber.

Some untimely penalties. Some big ones the last 2 weeks especially

And then the fumbles. Calvin against Seattle, Riddick/Moore against Vikings, Abdullah/Tate against Cardinals and the fumble by Stafford was a result of pressure by Denver.

Stafford has made mistakes. But so has everyone on offense.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Not a shocker that LKP is still LKP. Ngata hasn't played well. I'm thinking on Monday and Tuesday you were on your meds and all other days not.

The team stinks, they're not holeless. Tulloch is the worse LB I've seen in awhile, Slay, I'd take Terry Fair at this point (remember him). Ngata is just plain bad. Don't get me started on Matt and those TE's.

 

[Mitchrapp]

"Stafford is 76.6% with no pressure with 6.9 YPA. 86 QB rating"

This is not good. That still ranks poorly of all QB's with no pressure.

Speaking of dense

Stafford is a good NFL QB. Franchise QB. Should have elite numbers this year

GTFO with this Garoppolo trade garbage. Especially after Hoyer and Mallett.

Stafford will be a top 5 QB this season. We are not replacing him.

100 QB rating.

Stafford will be our QB for 10 more years. He'll be 37 by then. Maybe 11 years or more.

I love that.

Stafford was good in 2013 and outstanding in 2014. Elite in 2015.

Man up and give me your projections on the following:

I say Lions have a top 5 offense. 28-30 PPG
I say the Lions have a top 5 defense. 18 PPG given up

I say Stafford has a 100 QB rating (top 5)

And I say the Lions win 11 games in the regular season. Plus win one playoff game at least.

Give me your predictions. Man up. No waffling. the negative nancies I want your predictions.

Go.

Lions are the most talented team in NFC. Phi, zona, Dallas and Rams are jokes. Gb loses Nelson and has a shit defense. Seattle has major oline problems

Stafford has been dealt a shit hand the last three years with injuries, run support, protection in 2014.

He deserves a defense. He deserves an average run game. He deserves above average protection. He does not deserve Calvin out five, top back out 7, new oline every week, te problems, and a shit number 3.

Stafford will be elite this year. 100 qb rating. Top 5 qb. The weapons, oline, run game and protection look very good on paper. And year 2 of the offense is beyond huge

We have a very good roster still despite the DT changes. Ngata and Walker can play. Ansah, Tulloch, Levy,Slay,Mathis, Quin can play. Jones, Dig and Whitehead and Wilson can do enough in support.

Plus we should trust our coaching staff after last year.

This offense will be much better in year 2 with the OLine and run game upgrades.

 

[LKP]

76% is good especially considering the defenses we faced. We can't take deep shots (only 12 all year for him) because we give up pressure. YAC is down for every single weapon including Calvin.

I don't care about ranking. 76% is 76%. 76% is good.

Stafford under pressure is bad. And we can't protect him. And we can't run it to limit passing attempts. It's a bad bad situation for him.

But they'll probably cut bait with him next offseason and he'll do well for someone with protection and a run game.

You're wrong on Slay and Ngata too. Ngata has brought good pressure. Slay has had good coverage but got beat on 3 tough throws deep. We'll see if Ngata comes back.

 

[LKP]

I posted potential. They didn't meet the potential, mainly due to injuries. GTFO saving all my posts.

you are enjoying this losing. It's sickening.

 

[LKP]

And the fact that you all don't get those predictions were based on potential and HEALTH, I can't help you get smarter.

Every single health factor blew up. Ngata, Levy, Walker, Tulloch, Waddle, Bell. Every single one.

People get hurt, shoot them.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Do you actually watch the plays? He wasn't running for his life when he threw those INTs. Early in the game, had a wide open Tate in the flat.. threw behind him. Then because he's an idiot has to burn a TO. When everything is going perfect, no pressure and guys wide open, he's still missing guys. He's terrible.

Dan O. might not be good but he can't be any worse.

I'm talking all season pressure.

Miscommunicaiton with Calvin. And one pick he was under pressure hence the roll out left (that is pressure). Redding made a good play on the other.

He stinks with no pressure. You even posted the numbers yourself. Too easy to blame everyone else.

76% is good. And that doessn't even factor incompletes that aren't his fault

 

[LKP]

Carson Palmer is 70%, Brady is 74%, Rodgers is 76.8%

I rest my case. And I won this.

Where's that rank with all other QB with no pressure? Go take a look, take your time.. I'll be here.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Cherry picking 3 guys. Where's Rodgers. Btw, I'm not talking just completion %. That doesn't count INT, and all the other crap.

Ahead of Brady and Palmer. .2% behind Rodgers.
