Stafford in Focus

[LKP]

Guys just crazy. Stafford and all this talent on this team routinely wins 4-7 games a year. At some point shouldn't somebody realize that since we lose more than we win, we are are a losing team any way you look at it? This guy's gotta be on some serious meds to think the way he does. How exactly do I block him, can stand to see another post of his bs.

You will all look like fools in a few months. Can't wait

I hope the Lions win the super bowl. You won't prove anyone wrong if they do.

Your arguments have been about making excuses for past failures and selling every other team in the NFL short, as though they don't deal with injuries or bad luck.

Excellent point.

No I give plenty of evidence why the lions are a great team. My optimism is justified and the lions were better than their past two season records. Big year should be expected. Blind hate toward Detroit is not tolerated by me. You will be WRONG for not believing in them to make playoffs and do well once there. Too much talent and stats that back it up. Injuries show going forward the lions will play better with better health. The game tape shows the lions played really well and there were some crazy circumstances causing all 9 losses. This is a Super Bowl caliber roster. The players know it too. The new coaches know it. Detroit will be a playoff team that can make a deep run no matter how they hurt your stupid feelings in the past

Awwww poor Lions, can't catch a break! Damn those circumstances!

not me....I predict a good year. Ill look like a fool if Stafford pulls a Stafford and does what he always does....crack under pressure and piss the 2nd half of the season away.

You look like a fool everytime you bring up weather ie...philly game or the fact Akers cant kick in Arizona lmao

You look like a fool everytime you say we had to deal with more "concentrated injuries."

You look like a fool everytime you say "true wins"

Everything I say about what happened is a fact. Wake up and notice the context of losses.

Big year for stafford and lions

the context of the loses is that theres WAYYYYY too many of them and you contradict yourself ALLLLL the time.

You say were a deep team but you blame minor injuries as to why we lose
You say we lost cause of the snow...but philly played in the snow
You say Stafford was good...when he sucked
You say the lions were good...when we won 11 games in 2 years.

whatever you say...ends up being the opposite of a fact lmao.

Stafford was good. Game tape shows he wasn't problem
It wasn't minor injuries. It was major concentrated injuries.
Eagles did play in snow. They didn't lose McCoy and lane Johnson though. There is the difference.
Lions played better than their record showed. Not a hard concept for you to grasp. You are either stupid for not grasping it or just choosing to be negative. For your sake I hope it's the latter

 

[LKP]

And i never contradict myself. You just can't remember the whole picture as well as I do. I never said we have wr depth. Houston playing hurt is different than playing a backup who did well like slay, green and greenwood did. The playing hurt is what hurt us. And I have never said fox was a good run blocker.bell is good depth just not on those particular days. Again not a hard concept to grasp but you fail to do so

 

[dubbsco]

Ohhh I'm so sick of hearing "they played better than their record." What a bunch of crap. They had the division locked down, and they threw up on themselves. Stafford had a pathetic stretch, and imploded like he's known to do. They deserved everything they got, which is a 7-9 record and a 3rd place finish in the worst division in football.

 

[jdeb]

LKP has game tape. . Lol. I can see you now, down I'm your mom's basement after looking at porn on the Internet and not a paper towel left in the house and you sitting there watching game tape with a bag of pop corn, daddy's cell phone and buttery fingers with nothing to wipe them on....

Chicago would've won 12 games with Cutler healthy the whole year, GB would've won 14 games with Rodgers healthy, Detroit would've won all 16 games with Chris Houston healthy.

This... this is 100% true.

They had the division locked up. They could have been on cruise control, but they hit the brakes and went into a power slide.

Now, I am not down on Caldwell. I am not down on Stafford. I have no idea what kind of coach we're going to see, whether it's a guy who can take a team to the SuperBowl, or a guy who can turn a championship team into a 1-15 team with a key injury.

I have no idea what kind of QB we're going to see this year. It could be the 2011 gunslinger with balls of steel. It could be the headcase that melted down at the wrong time and watched it all slip away.

This entire team is an enigma right now, because we're seeing one of the biggest transitions I think I have ever seen in team philosophy. Schwartz was a passionate guy who ran the team by emotion, and it led to stupid mistakes. Caldwell is a clam guy, who's emotions never get out of whack, but hasn't proven he can be the coach who takes a team the distance.

I just don't know what to expect this coming season, but enough with the excuses for last year. This team kicked it's own ass up and down the field, and once again, snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.

They were handed the division on a silver platter, and threw it away. No more of this "better than their record" or "we had injuries" bullshit.

Cutler went down. Rodgers went down. We were in the drivers seat. We fell asleep at the wheel.

 

[cheeno]

I'm pretty sure we were drinking and driving.

Save yourself football!!!!! ps....were sooooooo talented.....never seen anyone else do this......were the only ones.....soooooo talented!

Bunched in with Romo, Cutler, Flacco & Eli Manning

"Would you believe Stafford ranks first in NFL history in passing yards, attempts and completions per game? The problem is that he has yet to prove he can beat good teams five years into his career."

 

[Mitchrapp]

Those guys really hate Romo. He can choke at times but he's been a much better QB than Stafford..

yea...I would put Romo at the top end of the group they put him in

since you asked...yes....I would hope if you rank first in attempts you would also rank first in completions and yards...or else you really suck at your job and your coach sucks at his job for allowing you to keep throwing the ball with no results.
