Stafford ranked as 11th most accurate passer

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

Definitely happy they addressed it. And 100% agree. ..there's competition and depth along the line now. For sure the right way to start building your team.

Amen! Lol. Now if they all suck?!?!? I don't know what to tell ya!! Lol. No way tho... 😉
 
Rookie lt is a concern but obvious they upgraded across the board. Just the cooter scheme was all they needed to do. But they added more talent, fixed rt, got better health for now and better depth

the scheme doesnt matter if they cant figure out how to run the ball effectively. Im not even going to say consistently....just effectively. Team has to respect that we might run or else nothing cooter does will matter. We played much of last year vs 6 men in the box and still didnt even try to run. It was a joke.
 
They ran it well with cooter last year. Abdullah had 4.7 ypc in second half of season

And that was with Reiff and ola and less experienced interior and no blocking te

Lions will run the ball well enough. Below average is improvement
 
And the only thing that really matters is turnovers allowed

20 in first 8. 1-7
4 in last 8. 6-2

man youre good at cherry pickin stats. He also only had 10 carrys a game during that time and only scored 1 TD. 10 carries a gm from your feature back isnt exactly what id call running it effectively.
 
Abdullah had more carries in second half of season than first. Not cherry picked. 80 carries

Blocking improved with cooter, abdullah improved, turnovers went from 20 to 4. And stafford had a 110 rating. Best in league by the way in that stretch

The reduction in turnovers allowed the d to do well allowing only 19 ppg. Ngata healthy and changes to lawson,diggs and whitehead also helped

And now the lions added more talent to that

And we play the dame shitty teams and add more shitty defenses like titans, jags, colts skins, giants, cowboys

It's sounds like you're trying to counter point me by saying 80 carries. But that is exactly what 10 carries a game is lol.

Jags defense is going to be solid this year....top 10 if their offense is any good.
 
Jags not top 10 and nowhere close to denver,seattle,kc,zona
