Basically a little above the mid point. So no excuses there.

Oh yeah, look who's #1 and #5. Gasp. So teams can actually play through injuries?

I could understand if teams lost a QB, like Dallas for example. But all teams have 'em.

They are counting two kickers in that tally for the Steelers. Bunch of backups for Green Bay. I'd take Green Bay's schedule and injury situation over the Lions current situation. And Green Bay is number 1 on that list.

Detroit, Pittsburgh Dallas, Carolina have the most important injuries.

And it's not just your injuries. It's do your opponents have injuries too when you play them.

 

[dubbsco]

Lol WHAT??? It's do your opponents have injuries when you play them? What the F does that mean?

Every team is freaking injured. Losing Jordy Nelson is basically equivalent to losing the entire offense sans Calvin for Detroit.

Clearly every team is not injured. Look at Seattle and Arizona who we played. they had Iupati back too when we played them.

vikings are damn healthy except on Oline. But they have Peterson and Loadholdt stunk in pass pro anyway.

Chargers were much healthier Week 1 than Detroit.

And Denver is healthy. They had Sambrailo and Ware when we played them. They are counting the rookie Heuerman for 16. Are you kididng me. Denver is fucking healthy too.

Warford and Levy fully healthy, still 1-5. Outside of those two, we're not missing anyone.

Denver lost their all pro LT for the season.

And that's it. They are way more healthy than Detroit. Especially in Week 3.

Ngata,Walker,Ebron,Pettigrew

Huge injuries

Detroit with Green Bay or Atlantas or Carolina's schedule 6-0/5-0.

 

[LKP]

the Green Bay equivalent to our injuries is
Clay Matthews, Mike Daniels and BJ Raji. They would be toast on defense.

And Sitton aka Warford would be a huge blow for their Oline. Plus Bulaga 2 games still and not fully recovered (Waddle)

This team is garbage. They fooled me big time. There is some talent but the turnovers and penalties are too much to overcome.

Fire everyone and start over.

Not with all of the turnovers, penalties, poor QB play and shitty coaching staff

There wouldn't be turnovers with a different schedule. And you wouldn't be calling Stafford and Caldwell shitty either.

 

[tomdalton22]

GB was missing their #1 WR, #3 WR, #1 TE for all 6 games and missing starting RT for 2 games.

A healthy Lions might go 2-4 or 3-3 with GB's schedule. The Lions without CJ, Moore, Ebron for the first 6 games even with GB's schedule....still 0-6

 

[dubbsco]

Green Bay's O-line has been total patchwork this year, but yet Rodgers somehow continues to make it work.

 

[dubbsco]

"There wouldn't be turnovers with a different schedule."

You mean like they'd be playing the Pistons or some other sport where teams don't catch footballs? That's the most head-scratching comment you've ever made, and you've made a lot of those.

Bulaga missed 3 games. None of the other 4 missed any time. So your patchwork comment is lies. LIES!!!! Barclay sucks but Rodgers just knows to step left. Barclay is experienced too.

With the Lions Oline, the pressure can come from anywhere as Reiff had a bad first 3 games. And both Waddle (missed games and just not the same after this injury) and Wafrord (twice) were hurt plus Pettigrew.

they wouldn't turn the ball over as much if they had an easy schedule like the Packers or Panthers or Falcons.

Packers have 4 home games (Chargers and Seahawks are garbage on road) and the away games were 49ers and Bears. That is such a bullshit easy schedule. Lions would be 6-0.

GB can still win without those. Take Calvin away (they lost their top guy) and Matt turns into Dan Orvlosky.

You must have missed the 4-1 we went without him last year.

It sure wasn't Matt who overcame. This years defense and Matt is end zone Dan.
