Get StartedI'll admit, I was anxious to see your response. And you didn't disappoint.
Fluke scrambles. Now I've heard it all. I don't even know what the f that means.
Bounced up in his face. That is a weird bounce. Oh well. Bring on cowboys. Lions o should havve much more success now
I predicted 10 or 11 and division title. I was right
Cowboys 7-1 home, giants 7-1, texans 7-1, seattle 7-1. packers avoided all four locations. that is clearly a factor.
lions 6-1. about to be 7-1
Lions will win on the road in Seattle.
You know what is sustainable? Giving up 6.8 YPG to Aaron Ripkowski, who basically has been a ghost until he went up against the Lions. Or letting Geronimo Allison, an undrafted rookie who has done nothing all year go for 91 yards.
It was man against boys on Sunday. And anyone who has ANY sort of eye for football would see that. The Lions generated ZERO pressure, and when they did, Rodgers made them look stupid. And the GB offensive line shoved around the defensive line like they were made of paper mache.
Dude, come on. Did you actually watch the game? The offensive line made the Lions look ridiculous. How many times did they Collinsworth break down the replay to show how much push they were getting? Aaron freaking Ripkowski. Think about that, for one second.
We complain about how little of a running game the Lions have. Meanwhile, GB trots out some fullback who makes the team look stupid.

You don't have a good defense if you give up 100+ yards to Aaron Ripkowski and Ty Montgomery. Sorry, you just don't.
If there's one thing I've learned about the Lions, is that they will make any no-namer become a star, or any regular pro set their all-time record in whatever stat they are chasing.
Lions turned Case Keenum into Dan Marino.
Montgomery has a had great year running the ball. 6.0 YPC coming into the game. Most yards after contact per rush by any player in the last 11 years with over 50 carries. Rip wasn't scouted for and Green Bay threw in the wrinkle. It's about run blocking. The DTs didn't show up for Detroit. Plus everyone was worried about Rodgers not run support.
Lions are in the playoffs. Bring on Seattle and their lack of protection and lack of run game.
Montgomery is kind of like Riddick. They were both WRs that were converted into RBs. The only real difference is Montgomery appears to be a good runner.
Has absolutely nothing to do with this conversation.
I know you are starting to lose the last bit of footing you have with this team, hang tough.
