Stafford ranked as 11th most accurate passer

It improved due to 6 other things

6 things you mythically make up all the time. I can do that too.

Lg is Sandwiched between a weak swanson that doesn't improve and a rookie lt. They all fail miserably.

Rg is stuck making up for swanson getting toasted leaving reiff on an island.

Warford gets injured.

Run game never gets going so defenses pin their ears back equating to a long season of Stafford getting murdered.

Y2w is greater or less than the square root of rg3 minus y3g.

See i can make stupid shit up to!
 
Im not negative. ...im accurate. I asked a question. ...no one provided a response.

Accurate about what? Who would you rather have at LT for the Lions? Reiff or Decker? And do you think Decker is an upgrade over Reiff?? But obviously you think they're worse, right??
 
Again. ...i simply asked a question. When is the last time in the nfl an oline improved from having a rookie lt. Again i got no answer.

Ogden with the Ravens? Pace with the Rams? Smith with the Cowboys? All guesses but it does happen

And that's why your nickname is Solomon Grundy. You 2 need each other...
 
My statements were facts. Your statements were nuh uh laken and swanson suck. You got nothing hughes.

Improved oline and run game because of the factual reasons i listed

And the ironic thing is you are complaining about a rookie then dissing the year 2 and year 3 argument. Most players get better with experience and more time in nfl weight program. But just ignore those facts hughes. Ignore them because you want the oline to be bad

I tried to explain to you last year but you didn't seem to learn. You like to predict things that will happen but you always predict the best case scenario. Most of the time, for every team, some things go well, some are status quo and some things go south badly. This will be the same for the Lions and your overly positive predictions below.

LT upgraded
Rt upgraded
Rg healthier
Center healthier
Lg more experience
Te blocking better with mulligan/wick over wright
Pettigrew could play more than he did 2015
Cooter scheme
Quicker throws
Higher number of reliable weapons. Boldin vs lance moore
 
I posted facts which are reasons they should be better. Rg and center are healthier. There is better depth this year too. Rt clearly upgraded. Decker is a rookie but has 1st round talent. Laken is more experience. This helps him play better which he did as year went on and they moved away from zone blocking

Oline on paper is improved across the board. Will it translate. We shall see

Reiff was decent. Decker has definitely got potential to be better. He could also suck ass....i have no idea.....hes a rookie that hasnt played a game yet. Hes getting tossed in their from day 1 so the good news is we'll find out here shortly. Most of the time higher potentil LTs even more praised than him get shoved at RT for a year or 2 to get their feet wet and learn the NFL game. I like that they are letting him play his natural position right off the bat.....but i have no idea if hes "good" or not at this moment. To say the line is better this year than last because we have a rookie LT is a stretch at the least. The LG C RG are all the same.....so LKPs 6 mythical improvements are a sick joke lol. The only thing that has upgraded in my eyes is the RT position....which is now filled by the guy we called average for the last 4 years.
 
Experience and health can make the same players better.

Also you are completely ignoring the scheme change. That same interior was much better under cooter

Weren't they playing shitty teams though?
 
They were playing the same teams we play in 2016

@ GB L
@ CH W

@ Hou L
@ MN L

vs MN L
@ NO W
vs CHi W
@ NY L
@ Dal L
vs GB L (could win if GB has nothing to play for)


8-8
 
Colts, giants ,cowboys and all home dividional games are easily winnable. Win 3 of those 5 you had losses and its 11 wins

No seattle, denver, arizona. Kc had a very good defense too and got hot.

There's the "got hot" argument lol. Isnt it weird that everyone just so happens to get hot right when they play the lions? Thats just called sucking.

Didn't he do this last year when pitts or someone beat us coming off a 3 game losing streak lol. But all of a sudden. ...they're hot!

I'm not saying that the OLine is finally fixed, but at least they're doing something about it. The guys they picked up have to be better. They don't have a choice lol. I like what they're doing. Now you gotta put a unit together.
And if you agree that the RT position is upgraded then you have to believe they're better at LT because Decker is a better LT. Tomlinson and Warford need to step up. They got competition with Schwartz or Dahl. Swanny and Glasgow battling......competition is brewin'. Gotta love it.
Think about it. The OLine was a car wreck last year. Imagine if they didn't address it? You'd be flipping your wig, bud lol
