NFC Playoff Thread

[LKP]

Bears 4 out of last 6 are away. And two tough home games against Dallas and GB. There is room for error since Detroit has the tie break.

More worried about the Packers if Rodgers comes back on Thanksgiving. Hope the Vikings beat them with Tolzien.

Rogers will carve us a new one if he is 100% for tday. The secondary seems to have regressed. If the Bears blow it and we just blow it less who cares. I would prefer not to be a one and done and this team has that look to it if they make the playoffs.

Quin missed most of the second half and Carey was straight garbage for Bentley out. Delmas had one bad play but it was a doozy.

I don't know what the hell got into Houston. Now that he has got his contact he turns to garbage. Seen that before from many a past Lion.

They're all doozy's. We give up too many big plays. Down by 3 and we decide to not cover their guy?

Except our guys misses two easy TD's..you're suppose to be good Matt. His completion % is under 60% now..23rd in the fuckin' NFL.

You're such a mental midget...lol. Reality is that we're in FIRST place in the North. 8th place?? Why even say that? What are you confused about? Win the North is what they have to do. Who gives a fuck that we have the same record as the Bears? We have the tiebreaker over them. Holy shit, do you need help tying your fn shoes in the morning or what??

the reality is were the only division leader in the NFC that lost and if you look at those other teams they are all playing much better than us. We have a defense that cant rush the passer and cant cover my grandma. a 3 win team just trounced us by 10. If TB trounces us next week maybe youll start seeing whats really going on....we beat a bunch of shitty teams in the first half with our only decent wins being vs the bears and the 2nd game we won because cutler was awful/injured. We are TIED for first so the notion that were just gonna win the division is hysterical to me when we just played down to Pittsburgh.

Pittsburgh trounced us??? No they didnt.....it was close all game. And Pittsburgh is a good football team, their record doesnt represent what they are...get real.

As for us beating "shitty" teams. Stfu about that...nobody wants to hear it. Any given Sunday, buddy. There are no guaranteed wins in the NFL and its ignorant to think it.

Is our defense trash? Damn right!!! But our offense keeps us in every game we play and we always have a chance.....always.

we were favored on the road and they won by 10.....according to vegas....that's a trouncing.

We did beat shitty teams. Weve also lost to some shitty teams. Which is why im not on the "Detroit is a high caliber playoff team" bus like some of the homers are.

IfFFFFfffffFFFFFF we get into the playoffs I think wed get smoked unless the defense can somehow pull their heads out of their asses.

Offense only played 1 quarter last sunday. Im not sure how bad the bell injury is but Bush sucked ass last weekend. He needs to step up his game if were going to end the season on a positive note. Ross, Durham shouldn't even be on the field...hopefully Burleson can make an immediate impact once hes on the field.

Updated with Carolina's record

Fairly sure Atlanta and TB are eliminated from the South already. New Orleans losing out would result in 2 more Carolina wins, giving Carolina at least 9.

Vegas??? Fuck Vegas!! You watched the game, it wasnt a trouncing. Favored or not.

As for everything else you said i agree but the shitty teams part. Any team can win against anyone. Its been proven time and time again

Still horse shit...
Pittsburgh was NOT A GOOD TEAM AT 3-6...GO LOOK AT THIER RECORED AND WHO THEY BEAT..
ON OFFENSE THEY WERE ONLY AVERGING 19 POINTS A GAME GOING INTO THE LIONS GAME..

THEY WERE TERRIBLE...

Go look at the Lions record. 6-4. Good team

 

[biggunsbob]

Terrible now??

Pittsburgh 3-6 going in
Lions 6-3 going in.

One team was good.
The other team was really, really bad..
Is that better..

 

[biggunsbob]

Go look at the Lions record. 6-4. Good team

I know..
shame though that with good coaching we should be 7-3, 8-2 or 9-1 now.


Lets recap.
Arizona......> should have won.
Bengals......> should have won.
Pittsburgh..> should have won.

Come on LKP when are the Lions going to take that next step and be called elite?

tough to put the Bengals game on that list. Dalton was torching us, not like that game was ours hands down.

we got a broken record here...lol. from both of us.

Ok, the Steelers are not the Jaguars. theyre better than their record says, they have been playing good football lately, theyre tough at home. it wasnt a gimme game. if you thought that then im sorry...

Yes I agree.

But in the end we are one good punt from taking it to OT at home...
Hopefully we win those OT games now that we are a good team..

I know Pittsburgh is a proud franchise with better coaches and no I did not think it was a gimme game... But what my eyes told me was the better team lost in Pittsburgh Sunday.
We had more talent.. You have to win those games... So maybe it is on the coaches...

Lions are 6-4 and we should have at least 1-3 more wins.... ok lets move on..

Are you saying we shouldn't have won?

 

[LKP]

Lions should have won. Doesn't make the Steelers a bad team. Lions should beat good teams and made alot of plays in order to be in position to beat a good team on the road.
