Speaking of Ebron...

[Mitchrapp]

Well hughes, in fairness to Ebron, he had 5 receptions vs Vikes and 4 vs SD, which is an incredibly high number when compared with AA who is their best RB and he only has 18 touches. TEs rarely get 50% as many catches as the best RB gets touches...though a quick search showed Gronk with very near 50% as many catches as BJGE had touches for Pats in 2011, so it isn't impossible...but I am not trying to say the 2015 Lions are even remotely close to the 2011 Pats or Ebron is equal to Gronk. My point here was more that the coaches really need to get AA more touches, IMO...but having more snaps would be the most beneficial. More snaps means more stops by the D and more sustained drives by the O...neither of which seems bloody likely, especially vs Denver this week.

Best RB by attrition maybe because the rest are stiffs. No one knows how good AA is.. He hasn't done much. Maybe we should wait a few games before we call him Barry.

All true. But its also fair to point out no matter what his production ends up being this year....it more than likely wont be top 10 worthy. I also agree AA needs more touches. Anything to get the pressure off Stafford so he stops ruining games.

He has legit skills, we have seen that already. No one is Barry, but AA has #1 RB skill set and could play as #1 RB on all but a few teams (not beating out AP in Minny as obvious example). The kid is legit...not that the Lions staff know what to do with that. Everyone on the planet knows he should get more touches, so Lions give him fewer because they don't know how to game plan properly.

He does seem like the best back on our team, but come on...That seems like a stretch... Hell he would be a clear #2 on any other NFC north team. He could be a split starter on a number of teams probably, but a clear #1 on all but a few? I just don't see it.

Seen what? What has it done? 59 yards in two games? Legit skills after 13 carries?

Yeah okay, lol.

I agree.

AFC east NE & Miami (maybe)
AFC North - Browns
AFC South - Jax, Titans, Colts
AFC West Raiders
NFC East - Cowboys, Giants
NFC North - only Lions
NFC South - Falcons, Saints, Bucs
NFC West - maybe AZ

That is 13 which is probably high. Some of those teams wouldn't want a rookie starter.

 

[tonyballs]

You're right. It irks me that he catches 3 passes and not 10 like a top 10 pick should.

Then you'd just cry that Tate or CJ don't get enough balls their way. You're a whiny cunt, man. It's all you do.

You've been a little bitch for years. ...but you're being excessively bitchy lately. Syncing periods with your girlfriends i guess. ..

Yes I'm whining that ebron was a dumb fucking pick. Nothing you say will prove me wrong....ever. so stop being a little stalker fuck.

Prove you wrong?? Buddy, you're a fn joke. You cry over everything Detroit Lions. Ebron is playing better already and that bothers you!!!! lol. That alone proves how much of a fn doofus you are. It's comedy at it's finest. Ebron is going to turn into a nice player for this team and that drives you up a wall. Like I said before...you're a constant running joke on here that does nothing but whine and moan like a bleeding cunt.

Keep the insults away from other people in his life. He's married by the way.

Call me a cunt... i don't give a fuck who i insult.

 

[Monster]

Cut the personal insults. Now. Or take it to private messages.

 

[kmd47]

Too bad we didn't win at LEAST one of the first two games.... Guarantee all this crying/bitching/insulting wouldn't be as severe.... Fucking Lions can't ever do anything right.

why the fuck would it bother me if ebron plays well? He hasn't played well so im not sure what youre referring to.....but why the fuck would it bother me if he ever decided to actually play well? Your almost as fucking loony as LKP is. Now youre just creating shit in your mind and throwing it up all over our board. You hate the ebron pick, you love the ebron pick, ebron cant catch, ebron is turning into a nice player for us. Make up your fucking mind you fucking robot. All you do is disagree with people just to get a kick out of arguing with them lol. Youre a joke....

 

[LKP]

Donald and Beckham doing well. But Ebron is doing good things too.

Really I'd take Lewan right now given Waddle can't get on the field and Lucas' problems.

Attaboy. Stand up for yourself, gimp!!!

Never said I loved the pick, retard. "I GET" the pick and it was explained a thousand times over, but your stupid dumb ass don't get it. Lombardi (as fucked up as he is) wants to run his offense through his TE. THAT also has been explained to you too. Again, you're a fucking clown that knows nothing about football.
And of course Ebron isn't playing better. lol. More TDs, more targets, more catches, more yards. Yep, he hasn't improved lol. You're a moron!!

 

[tonyballs]

You were right, Hughes.....so right...my bad. Ebron hasn't played better since last year

2014 1st game - 0 rec, 0 yds, 0 TDs
2nd game - 3 rec, 38 yds, 0 TDs

2015 1st game - 4 rec, 53 yds, 1 TD
2nd game - 5 rec, 43 yds, 1 TD

Almost identical. You're a fucking genius!!! lol...tool

 

[mhughes0021]

I bitch about the lions....who suck ass and consistently fail at being a relevant organization. Heck, espn does a piece specifically on 0-2 teams and we're not even mentioned once lmao.

You bitch about me everyday. A person you don't even know on a message board.

Who sucks at life?
