Game 6: Lions @ Vikings Thread

#1 - agreed. It absolutely has.

#2 - good. I don't think Stafford will get there, but top 10 is possible.

#3 - lol. WTF are you talking about? It's Peyton Manning. Nobody is comparing him to Peyton Manning. And Manning very much is his own offensive coordinator....nobody thinks otherwise. He's been in his system for 15+ years now. An absolutely terrible example brewer.

#4 - the TE role in a Lombardi offense is important. Ebron will get there, but he's cert not the yet.

But you said stafford has led us to 4 wins

Your comparison to brees was silly and debunked

Theres new cords/qb combos every year that produce. This combo has sucked.

Ebron is not important in this offense...ever.
 
Negatives...OLine is terrible, Ebron is a mirage, nobody offensively stepped up, Stafford looked scared.

Positive....Defense, defense, defense, Riddick looked good before he was hurt, DLine was off the charts, Whitehead is a good LB, road win.

Basically what I got off of today's game.

Same.

Still waiting a test for this defense. Bridgewater McKinnon ford Jennings Patterson was like facing a jv team. Even when the dline wasnt getting there they were dropping passes or making awful throws or tipping balls to tahir lol.
 
George johnson almost had like 8 sacks today lol. And dude doesn't even play much.

#3 Ok Philip Rivers last year?
 
Before anyone worries about stafford they should be worrying about this o line first. They need to do a much much much better job.

Spot on.

Stafford is making mistakes and poor throws with time and clean pocket, worrying about his is fair.

I do agree the oline needs to be better. For a guy like Stafford to be successful he needs those around him to play well above average.
 
Mayhew plan. Transitioning into insanity.

Lmao. Geez usually it takes half a decade for the Lions post traumatic thousand yard stare. Are we sure Caldwell isn't one of those robots from the Old Spice commercials?

1. The Lions' defensive line absolutely ruled the game. Ezekiel Ansah was all over the field, compiling 2.5 sacks, three tackles for loss, three quarterback hits and made Vikings left tackle Matt Kalil look like a 18th century stone gargoyle. (This was the type of performance we expected when we named Ansah a "Making the Leap" candidate.) The Lions' defense left with eight sacks, 12 QB hits and three interceptions.
 
Gotta feel for Broyles though, offense not clicking, can't convert a 3rd down to save their lives, and still no pt. When he does get his shot, he will produce.
