Is this season over?

[UMRules06]

Lions fumbled at the 5 and were picked in the Giants redzone. Held Giants to 17 (positive). It was a really closes game with positives for Detroit. Only trolls would say otherwise.

Turnovers = bad. They are not positives. By your fake logic you can find a whole bunch of positives in any game ever played. Your tune never changes.

I also like that since everybody knows you're just trolling, you have resorted to deflection by calling everybody else trolls instead. Brilliant tactic.

He averaged 1.67 carries per game until going up against the Lions. Other than a 6 carry game against Atlanta, he's literally done nothing other than the occasional token handoff. He was a nobody until the Lions.

You don't have a good defense if you give up 100+ yards to Aaron Ripkowski and Ty Montgomery. Sorry, you just don't.

Montgomery is a helluva good football player. Watch the game.

And so is a glorified fullback who did the majority of damage?

The getting o the redzone was the positive you dingus which made it close. Close to scoring if not for fluke turnovers

 

[dubbsco]

Yeah UM. You dingus.

The Lions moved the ball to the redzone??? Hooray!!!

The Browns do that very same thing every game. Again if you search for it you can find meaningless "positives" in any game. You treat this team like they're third graders who get a pat on the back for trying. You're full of it and you know it.

The only meaningful positives from the last 3 games is that it should now be abundantly clear that this team has a LOT of holes and that Quinn and the coaching staff have a lot of work to do in the off season and through the draft. This is NOT a good team, they somehow managed to win 9 games by beating .500 or below teams... yippy.

correct me if i'm wrong but not a single one of their 9 wins was against a team that ended up finishing the season above .500. If the goal was to be ave, congrats mission accomplished. Start working on the off season moves and looking ahead. The season is for all intensive purposes over already. If they some how manage to beat Seattle believe me i'll be very happy that they at least won their first playoff game in 25 years but I don't expect that to happen either.

Redskins finished above .500.
Other teams would of finished above .500 if the Lions didn't beat them, Colts, Vikings.

But overall we didn't beat any good teams. We had the lowest strength of victory of the NFC playoff teams, and 2nd lowest of all the playoff teams.

Who said anything about their goal just being average?

 

[LKP]

10 games next season against teams .500 or below.. And lions beat one. Skins. So we beat bucs instead

That puts lions at 11 wins for 2017. Playoffs again. Extension for Caldwell

Seems to be a lot of that garbage going on in here lately. "Oh i never really meant that", its just a figure of speech", "this is what i really meant".

Oh look #1 ranked worst call of the year

The 4 yard drop Caldwell didn't challenge becuase it was only 4 yards.

I'd have been more pissed if he had challenged that call. It meant nothing. Refs have to be more competent than that.

Oh I agree he never should have been put in that position to then not throw the red flag...

But good point.. not having it over turned makes it stay at the top of the list of bad calls. He throws the flag they over turn and we never hear about it again.. better this way, keeps the NFL looking like the joke it has become. Maybe Caldwell didn't challenge on purpose just to send a message to the NFL as to how big a joke they are.

Glaskow illegal hands to the face call. God that was bad. Refs should've blushed on that one.

 

[LKP]

Ebron OPI against Titans
Lawson DPI against Packers
DPI called on Whitehead at Bears
Tate OPI against Packers Week 17
No DPI called on Hyde on his pick Week 17
No OPI called on Nelson Week 3 or Bryant in Week 16


It doesn't even out either. Many times they make the correct calls against the lions and opponents. But the ref mistakes aren't evening out. They are all going against the Lions and costing Detroit wins.
