Game 8: Lions @ Vikings Thread

[tomdalton22]

Honestly he just doesn?t look and sound like he wants it, I think he didn?t earlier in his carrer but he?s just rather uninspiring ho hum now. Need a leader who doesn?t accept losing,oh hum we lost I need to play better, nothing we can do but prepare for the next loss, thanks guys

This imo is what happens after multiple coaching and scheme changes with cycles of failure, after awhile you just get the life sucked out of you. It?s just a job now and not fun

The "Lions" are getting to him....just like they did to Barry and CJ. Someday the three of them will go out for beers and ask..."what did we do wrong to have the Lions draft us????"

 

[tomdalton22]

Here's something that will make you scratch your F'in head....Drew Brees and Stafford have thrown for the same amount of yards and TD's so far this year.

Brees has 234 more yards, 4 more TDs, 8 fewer turnovers, and completes 76% of his passes vs. 67%.

But if you don't count those, they have the same.

Why is it when you watch a team like the Patriots other then the Lions game they played hard last night . They were missing a bunch of guys verses the Packers, and in the 3rd quarter tied at 17-17 the packers defense with a ton of backups were holding thier own. They were stopping Brady . The Packer offense was moving and then the Patriots defense makes a play and gets a fumble recovery. Then Josh McDaniel’s changed his play calling on the fly and it was magical how they adjusted to the Packers defense. The trick plays were fantastic and called at the right time . Great stuff. McDaniel’s and others are so far ahead of Cooter it is not even funny. Chris Simm’s said it best. the Patriots offense under McDaniel’s finds Schematic advantages on a weekly basis to help out Brady and the offense. It was so frustrating to watch. The Lions have plenty of weapons for The offense damn it all find a damn coach who will make Matt take the next step.

Matt does not have a next step, I don't even think the problem is Cooter anymore.

You could be right . I just can’t give up on him yet. It does appear he might be ‘Lions’ in his head . Losing crushed Johnson , and espically Barry. I still feel a different play caller would really help Matt out. Espically adjusting in game. Our offensive line was hurt and just garbage Yesterday. But Cooter did nothing to help out Matt who also missed checking off. Some of the sacks were on Matt.

The Lions should've given up on Stafford years ago. The gut feeling about Stafford 5 years ago was that Stafford couldn't get this team to the next level. He's proved this time and time again. He's not the guy. It's time to accept it guys, time to move on

Stafford is here until 2021 at the earliest unless the Lions FO decides to make some questionable financial decisions that will essentially ruin one season. We're stuck with him whether we like it or not.

Lmfao.

The Lions need to hire Andy Reid & have him draft the next QB.

Yeah, apparently they hadn't updated Brees game from yesterday when I posted that.

I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired of this franchise

The next stage is complete absence of fucks to give. It's not bad once you get there. I watch the games and move on. I don't buy tickets, I don't buy merchandise. It stresses me out less that way.

I’m getting closer to that each year little by little, All the ballcaps even the new one received as an Xmas gift last year remain in the closet, Stopped putting the lions jersey on before games 2 years ago, skipped one game intentionally so far this year for the first time ever.

Man Rich Gannon went off on Stafford. Read it in Lions notes.

 

[brewer229]

Wifey came to defend Matt. Clueless as usual. I don't think any fans are saying they could do better.

 

[tomdalton22]

Kelly Stafford should be seen and not heard.

Why?? She has every right to voice her opinion. You don't like it because she speaks the truth lol.

No matter how much you defend them, they aren't going to invite you to a threesome, give it up.
