Lions offense moving to no huddle

[Monster]

locker and ponder just went postal on our defense if I remember correctly...it wasn't a very hard prediction to make from a non kool aid poster. And you can call it negative all you want....but it was accurate and correct.

Bro...you predicted 8 straight losses for YOUR team. Who the fuck does that?

 

[Monster]

well I know I wouldn't like being called a resident crybaby when ive never said anything about him. Hes been bitching a lot lately. PMS or something...

I bitch a ton about the Detroit lions...who suck. Hes been bitching about other posters. Big difference...especially coming from a "forum manger."

I bitch about you and only you. You're in the middle of every single argument on the lions board and say nothing but negative things. Mitch may piss people off, but he isn't nearly as negative as you. I don't want you to suck the kool-aid, but i'd expect you to have a shred of positivity if you're an actual fan. But you don't. All you add to the conversation is argument and crybaby rants about every post in this board.

someone who can see through all the bullshit lol. And it wasnt really a prediction moreso than a "locker and ponder just went crazy on us....I wouldn't be surprised if we lost the rest of the games. I cant really pick us to win an actual game when locker and ponder just looked like drew brees."

again...you call that being negative....I just call it seeing it how it is.....and the lions had the biggest role and proved my statement accurate.

Ive said it all along....the nice thing about being a pessimistic fan is I WELCOME them with full arms to prove me wrong. This mayhew led organization just fails to do that on a consistent basis. Therefor I get to look like im right a lot....I get to continue to say that mayhew blows....and I don't have to eat crow very much. Its a win win.

Its easy to be negative about a franchise when you don't have any faith in its upper management on down to its GM/finance guys on down to its coaching staff (Schwartz team).

Fords - perennial losers
Mayhew - I think ive covered enough why I don't think hes good
Lewand - drunk
Schwartz - joke
Linehan - ran a decent offense but was horrible at adjustments.
Gunther - senile. vanilla defense.

what was there to be positive about really???

I post a lot on this board....so either youre missing a lot of my posts where I say positive things about the franchise...or you ignore the posts where I talk positive about the franchise....or you just chose to only bitch at me after I post something negative probably because you have something against me. I don't care either way....but when you call me out I think you've seen my posts enough years to know im going to retaliate in an irrational manner lol. Sorry for that...

I'm a big boy. I can handle it.

Some people just chose to see and talk about all the negative things I say.

the positive things you say are like finding the 8 in the picture below

9=negative things you say
8=positive things you say

that's exactly it... real fans aren't pessimistic about every aspect of their favorite team. you wine and cry like a little bitch about EVERY GOD DAMN THING.

why are you even considering yourself a "fan"? if you hate every decision this team makes, why are you not doing something about it (applying for a job with the team to try and make a difference, switching teams, etc...)? do you seriously like torturing youself that much?

Is there an 8 in there or am I wasting my time..:nod:

I actually found it very fast...which kinda refutes his argument.

Im a pessimist about mayhew...who % 40 of the board thinks should be gone by now.

I hated our coaches....who are all gone so the owners agreed with me.

I thought stafford didn't play to the level hes being paid to.....I'd say about 80% of the people agree with that.

We won 7 games...I wont ever be a fan that gets excited about that.

Ahhh FFS all these good assistant moves are starting to make me optimistic!

he's not a fan......

he's nothing but troll......a narcissistic troll.

If the Lions ever won the Super Bowl he's the guy that would scream "I told you so" to anyone that would listen. Then bitch about the parade route they took.

FUCKIN MAYHEW!!!!

Hang on, I'm going to be bringing everyone back to reality a moment. Not to be negative, just as an observation to see what others think.

I like adding the no-huddle as a change of pace,but I thought these past few years what they really needed was being able to have long, ball controlled, eat the fucking clock down to nothing type of drives. Seemed they had the lead in the 4th quarter but lost due to being unable to havr a nice long drive for a TD.

Additionally, as we Wolverine fans should easily remember, a no-huddle O can result in the D being on the field longer and getting more tired instead of rested.

I just hope they have a good grasp of how and when to use it as a way to change the tempo and possibly the game, keep the opponent D off balance, but for that to work they need to have the other side of it, ball control with proper time and game management as well. I would love to see them even mix it up on the same drive. The less predictacle the better, but this gives impression the new guys are not recognizing the problem the Lions had was the opposite of no huddle offense.

Sorry for being negative, just putting it out there and hopefully these guys will manage both extremes well. Sometimes a good quick score can be a back-breaker so I do like them working on it too.

It definitely has its drawbacks. That's why I think it won't we full-blown. Now and again it could be a nice option. We shall see..I like having a ball controlled offense, and Matt threw Less last year than previous years but I think he needs to cut down again, get under 600 passes. We would probably need another back though, Imo. I don't want Bush running the ball more with his fumbling problems.

Monster is FOR SURE not the only one who feels this way about our negative Nancy resident crybaby.....

lol cause I care what some douchebag 247 post person thinks. you never have anything useful to say. youre like booger junior. im a pessimist and negative for a reason...the lions aren't good. LKP is an optimis for god knows why. Youre just a fucking moron...

 

[LKP]

Lions have negatives (penalties, some big plays allowed, turnovers, run defense in 3 games). Lions have way more positives than negatives IMO though and talent to fix those negatives or options to get more talent.

Fix the turnovers (not just picks but 15 fumbles). This team moves the ball, scores enough points (both because of Stafford) and gets enough stops but could use a few more in the 4th if we are going to turn it over like crazy.


-12 turnover differential and it's taking OT, miracle FGs and a Calvin crazy drop pick. I feel confident going at Arizona, and playing the Giants and Bucs next year that it can go in the Lions favor.

The thing about fumbles is that our leading rusher, recent free agent has a fumbling problem and has most of his career. How does that change..? You can't cut him, it's been happening since he got to the NFL. You just have to take his 4-5 fumbles a year and move on..
