Game 6: Lions @ Vikings Thread

But I thought the Swanson pick was a joke?? Raiola was fucking awesome last year...remember?! Even though he's been a pile of heaping dogshit every year except one..lol.

Swanson pick is looking better and better by the game.

swanson? swammy? SAMSONITE!...I was way off. but ya....im not crowning Samsonite as a great pick cause all he is doing right now is sitting behind a guy that blocks no one. How awful do you have to be to sit behind a guy that blocks no one? pretty awful....

Haha, I had planned on it but I need a video clip of the play to make the .gif and I can't find a usable one. Maybe after a day or so I'll find it on a highlight somewhere.

If it was 2114 I would just upload it from my brain because it's an image I won't get out of my head for a few weeks.

Tony, Swanson has not played yet, how do you know the pick is getting better? Just because the guy in front of him sucks?

I didn't say the pick was GETTING better. I said the pick was LOOKING better. Raiola is a fucking pylon and has been horrific his whole career, right? Give the kid a shot. He can't do any worse!! lol. Hell, throw him in at Guard if it's at all possible. Sims has been terrible. If not, you risk Stafford getting crumpled liker a piece of paper or you hold your breath and kick Raiola in the nuts at the end of the year and show him the door. Two options....

How many times are you going to use that excuse for players? Swanson is a rookie and there is no real rush to start him. I think they need to give him a shot, but it's a wait and see approach. Tey did the exact same thing with Reiff, except Reiff played sparingly his rookie year. We all know that they're probably giving Swanson the biggest opportunity to start next year. Doesn't mean he sucks at all.

 

[tonyballs]

Oh, I'm serious.

 

[sggatecl]

Oh, I'm serious.

I guess I just missed the comments of Crayola being "fucking awesome" (LKP trolling doesn't count). I think Crayola is pretty bad and I still think Swanson was a reach.

If our coach wont play players just cause hes a rookie than he should be fired. Im giving him the benefit of the doubt and assuming hes not playing him because hes not as good as crayola. Any other excuse would be just plain dumb. You don't sit better players. ... ever.

Coming from one of Staffords biggest supporters..interesting.

Just heard one of the announcers from the game was yanked from future assignments and his NFL announcing career is essentially done. Thankfully I will not need to puncture my ear drum now.

who got yanked? ayanbedanjo (sp) was the one making all the mistakes ...honestly the UFC guy didn't do half bad.

Not sure who. Just heard one (or both) we're suppose to do Vikings bills game, but got pulled. Only heard part of the report.

Goldberg (the UFC guy) mistook Jennings for Tate (they share #15), lost track/misspoke downs a couple times, and had a couple of other minor mistakes.

Honestly, I bet Fox would have given him a pass on all of that if he would've just shut the fuck up on Twitter. The Twitter bullshit is what got him canned.

aka..a shitty throw right to the safety.

Riola looked awful Sunday..

It's been a case of good Dom bad Dom so far this year. He DID have a crucial block on Riddick's big gainer on the opening drive.

Maybe he's not ready just yet. He had some flaws coming out of college..remember? Not every rookie needs to start right away. That's not the way it works in the NFL. I would love to see this kid shine right now, but he's somewhat of a project and should be our starting Center next year.

I know you saw raoila stand up and block no one and get Stafford killed. Or how about 10 times he got trucked. A vagina would play better than raoila right now. And if youre invested in Stafford and his health...you should be playing the guy that can actually protect him. If youre going to waste your 1st round pick on a 3rd string TE you should use him. If youre going to use a 2nd round pick on an olb with talent you shouldn't have him on IR 6 weeks after hes 100% healthy. If your going to blow a 3rd rd pick on a back up center.....he should be ready enough to step in when raoila has proven he just doesn't know what the fuck hes doing other than playing smear the queer with our qb. I actually feel bad for whoever mayhew drafts cause like 90% of the time its not their fault they fail.....we set them up to fail over and over and over.
