Lions are 5-24 vs the Bye Week, having won in 1960 and 2014-17....The late WCF Sr. didn't have full ownership of the Lions franchise in the former, and was deceased since the latter.

NFL Bye weeks were implemented in '60, '66, and '90-present.

I can't see where this game is on. I haven't missed a bye week since I was little.

Bears lost. So Lions won the bye week

27th ranked offense according to NFL.com. BARF!!! There is WAY too much talent on this offense to be ranked that low...and still 30th in rushing. It looks like Jim Caldwell tenure numbers...may as well have kept him for all the good it is doing us. Although I take this ranking with a grain of salt since it has them as the *6th* ranked defense. Don't see how that is possible.

In any case, who shoulders the blame for the 27th ranking? Stafford? JBC? or Patricia? Or equal blame on all 3?

That is just really bad Numbers with the players they have. It starts with Jbc. We need a new OC in my opinion l
