I've seen worse 7 win teams. One from this season, Indy. They're awful. With or without Luck.

Get StartedEye test. ...were awful.
Two losses to Minny and the 6-0 start by GB pretty much sealed the deal.
Again, Seattle still had an entire 1:30 to score a TD.
Cover a Hail Mary. Stop with the ref BS.
This team isn't that good. When they went up against legit competition in the early going, they fell short, and other than GB, every win has been against a team below .500. They are a below average team in a horrible year of NFL football.
Two losses to Minny and the 6-0 start by GB pretty much sealed the deal.
When your season is done by week 7....youre pretty much awful.
And Minny is overrated while Green Bay falls apart. The NFC North should have been up for grabs
Well they beat us twice taking all tiebreakers.
But their season wasn't over by Week 7. Are you high?
we were 1-6 dude lol. Then followed that up with another big fat L making us 1-7. We were toast. Let us know when youre back on planet earth.
Lol, it was over. It was over when they were 0-5.
Tony, we look at this team in a magnifying glass because they are local. But we aren't the only fans of a franchise that gets screwed and or robbed because of bad calls. We just talk about them because they are our team. Almost every week a team is on the side of a horribly timed call. That's football.
And we've also chosen to look at those bad calls as the final make or break of a game. If the team is good enough, that shit won't derail them from winning.
Technically we did have a shot. But no gets into the playoffs after starting 0-5. Even if those two jobbed calls, didn't happen it doesn't guarantee a playoff spot. Maybe we don't score against Seattle, first and goal at the one? Maybe Seattle scores after Detroit does? Not sure why anyone thinks that a missed call guaranteed anything. A call that no one in the universe knew about, except maybe Brewer.
And why do missed calls at games ends seem to matter more than the ones at the start. Other teams get jobbed too. We're 6-9 and deserve to be 6-9.
Because Wright knocking the ball out of bounds was an illegal play. Should have been 1st and goal from inside the 1. Majority has us scoring. Happened at the end of the game too....it actually put the nail in the coffin.
GB gets a phantom facemask and a do over at the END of the game. GB wins with ZERO on the clock. That's monumental. Now i know all types of questions come into play.....do we score against Seattle? How do you not stop a hail mary? Yeah, i get it, but it never should have happened in the first place. The refs stole those 2 games from the Lions. No other way to look at it...sorry. Refs need to be held accountable. These fkn "we're sorry" statements from the NFL on a Monday morning is a joke. Sorry? Go fuck yourself, Goodell and right this ship....
