Everyone says the LIONS has a "bad" defense, they're 14-2 and undefeated on the road. Everyone wants to be a win / defeat expert analyst.

This is what it boils down to. The Lions need to score 40+ to have a shot with the current state of the defense.

30+ and a +1 turnover margin over the Vikings on Sunday wins them the game. Come Anzalones return that will be a HUGE piece back on defense and it will be a different equation moving forward. Also keep an eye out for the Circus throws & catches on Sunday. If it's going our way we win. That's part of what killed us against the 9ers last year. Any wings fan knows that those bounces don't go your way and your screwed. We got this game. Ford Field is going to be insane. Kerb will have a pick and St. Will be clutch. Goff is going to get rushed nonstop and if he makes incredible decisions with the ball and continues to protect the ball we win. I'm not worried😤

They need 2 stops a game, for the rest of the season and they can win it all. Be it turnovers or punts. That Offense can score on any team.

If the Lions chew up the clock like they've done all season they will control this game. You don't need a stellar defense if Goff drives down the field and makes smart decisions.

This is why i wanted them to grab a Garrett or Crosby once Hutch went down they should have gone all in on a star. With McNeil and Davis being out, it's gonna be tough.

So did everybody else, Max was delusional enough to think the Raiders could win anything, and the Browns probably wanted way too much. We go to the playoffs with who we have, not with who we wish we have.

🤣😂The Brown were not giving up Garrett. The Raiders were not giving up Crosby. Also to get either one would be three first around picks plus Jahmyr Gibbs, Sam LaPorta, Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams, or Brian Branch so which one of those guys are you giving up again? When people say don't sell the future. They mean don't give up any one of the guys you hit on in the draft. The Tigers did that they sold the farm system young guys that could have been great for the team to win the World Series and they got nothing.

@evacody1249 I'm not trading anyone but draft capital. If Crosby and Garrett wanted out they could have gotten out. This day in age is different for sports. The players have the power to play where they want more than ever. Getting Zadarius was a nothing move IMO. I had been asking for a compliment for Hutch last 2 years. They needed 2 rushers and a linebacker and they only made one move not good enough. Fuxk them picks

Crosby wasn’t even worth it this year. Ended up with season ending surgery from a injury he got week 2 or something.

McNeil and Davis going down significantly impacts those units. Davis was statistically the best corner the month before he went down. McNeil was the best DL they had left. Neither can be replaced with this roster. But, acore 35-40 and it might not matter

Branch pushing the 49er was because the 49er had his face mask. But I guess that balanced out with Purdy getting an uncalled face mask
@brianmartindale222110 күн бұрын
The Lions D is strong up the deep middle with Campbell, Iffy, Branch, and KJoseph with good corners if Davis plays. It's difficult to win in the playoffs without pressing the QB and stopping the run, but that patch-work line just may hold up. Getting JRM and Anzalone back will definitely help, too. Man, Barnes, McNiel, and Hutchinson are big losses to the D, but they can finagle it, sure. Besides, just hold teams under 30 if the O is clicking, right? Even the worst NFL defenses do that

U gotta think that Waymo will be unleashed soon- he’s been used sparingly thus far. Any other team would have worn him to the nub. So I think a newer look offense is about to come out

Za’Darius Smith, Reader are always seeing double teams now, because there’s no one else. Plus they’re past their prime. The Defense ranks last in the league since Chicago Thanksgiving. All that said, Glenn cooked up some things that helped win the game. We need divine intervention to sneak past the Vikes so we can get a bye. 🦁🙏🏼💪🏼

2009 SAINTS were on the TAKE with GREG WILLIAMS......Paying players to injure the other players. The hit on Favre was a penalty roughing the passer after he threw the ball. REFS didn't call it REFS were on the take.

I can't believe anyone would think it's a good idea to bring back "Another One Bites The Dust." That Costa guy is too young to remember how quickly it turned into "another one beats our butts" and how opposing teams would throw dust in the air after kicking the Lions asses. And no, I don't want some lame imitation of that BS super bowl shuffle, the most annoying bit of ego-scum-baggery crap put to music by anyone anywhere anytime.
