How to fix the Lions ?

[Brazil]

Another season another reason to :cry

This teams fucking blows... letting a third string rookie playing for a terrible chicago running a train on you is shameful tbh

[UNT Eagles 2016]

The Lions are a rebuilding team who just lost their best player. I only see 2 more wins on the schedule considering it's pretty rough and they lost one of their few winnable games left yesterday.

Go 3-13 and score a solid draft pick... definitely top tier OL or perhaps Megatron's replacement if a truly elite WR is there. Or perhaps even draft Leonard Fournette, but that OL is a problem... DL is the only relative strength on the team but Suh gone hurt that a lot.

[Brazil]

On paper they are still better than 1-3 pace imho... They are on rebuilding mode but they have some quality dudes out there that should make this process a bit more fun... here it is just painful

They sure are lacking depth, cannot overcome 1 or 2 guys injured but coaching is not helping...they're coaching scared

Caldwell isn't good, the o-line isn't good, the backs are average, there's nobody commanding a double in the receiving game anymore... lastly, the secondary isn't very good anymore, and the LBs are nothing to write home about.

They have a hard schedule and just lost two of their 3 remaining "very winnable" games they have left, yesterday and against the Titans... best to not try to win closer to 5 or 6 games and mess up their draft status. Plus winning even that many will be very hard considering their remaining schedule. Realistically they could beat the Jaguars and Bears at home, Saints away isn't impossible but less likely... the rest of the schedule is really rough. Outside chance they could get a win at Houston. I just don't see many wins considering they've already lost to 2 of the worst teams in the league

Fire the coach, this guy should`ve been sacked last year mid season.

GIVE THINGS SOME TIME...ROOKIES~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I cannot believe you guys STILL haven't figured this out, sheesh~~~~~~~~

The Lions in 1897 went 1-4 then went on to win their next 11 and win the division.

Pay attention.....

The Chiefs are 1-5 in 2015, end up 11-5.

The Bengals are kicking ass at 8-0, then go 4-4.

Atlanta is red hot at 6-1, they finish up 8-8.

The Jets are smoking at 4-1, end up 10-6.

Redskins are sucking at 3-6, they end up 9-7.

Rookies, sheesh~~~~~~~~~~

In 2014 the Seahawks are 3-3, would end up 12=4


SLOW DOWN IT'S ONLY WEEK FIVE ROOKIES~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It's 2006 the Rams are hot at 4-1, they would end up 8-8.

It's 2012 the Broncos are 2-3, they would end up 13-3

Come on little people, sheesh~~~

It takes a few weeks for things to start to take shape in all NFL seasons, ya don't put too much into Sept. Simply common sense.

I thought you were avante for a moment there :lol

[Brazil]

1 pt win extasy tbh :hat

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Wow. A very surprising result. Nice that you ended the game with a clutch interception against the 2nd best rookie quarterback in the NFC East. :toast

[Brazil]

:lol and a new win... dat tanking job is in danger

[UNT Eagles 2016]

I don't think Lions beat the Skins next week, Skins are damn good, still probably 3rd best in own division when it's all said and done but still a solid team

[HarlemHeat37]

Best team in the NFC North, tbh..by default, though, since all the teams are mediocre to slightly above average:lol

[UNT Eagles 2016]

they'd be the best clearly if they still had megatron

[Brazil]

:lol NFC North is a joke tbh

[UNT Eagles 2016]

:lol NFC North is a joke tbh

Sad part is I was sure it was easily the 3rd best division in the NFL a couple weeks ago. And looking at the overall standings, it still probably is tbh.

This year is pretty top heavy with divisions imo... you've got the stacked AFC West and NFC East, then you have the Patriots as an outlier, then you have everyone else.

:lol NFC North is a joke tbh
Cavs broke their curse, Cubs broke their curse...

this is our year :toast

[Brazil]

Cavs broke their curse, Cubs broke their curse...

this is our year :toast

:lol I wish :tu

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Loins will have a tough time winning the North with all those bad losses.

[HarlemHeat37]

:lol Lions moving up the standing during a bye week..

[Brazil]

:lol Lions moving up the standing during a bye week..

[resistanze]

Stafford a better QB than Aaron Rodgers right now.

[Brazil]

:lol can't believe we are leading our division tbh

[lefty]

Meh not contenders tbh

[Brazil]

:lol of course not silly you...

[Brazil]

:hat

[HarlemHeat37]

That was an impressive W, they just shit all over the Saints..

Still, though, Lions have to play at Giants, @ Cowboys and get GB in week 17:lol..they could still go 9-7..

[Pelicans78]

I was at that game yesterday. That was pitiful from start to finish. Sean Payton must be loving the extension he got. But the Lions totally dominated that game. I left at the 8 minute mark of the 4th quarter just to beat that downtown NOLA traffic.

[William Hung]

Defense is legit

Vikings seem to have the more favourable schedule, GB has to play Seattle, Vikings and Lions. Lions can win 2 out of 4 remaining (chicago and GB, we are playing at home this last game) tbh... I'd die for 10-6 record :lol

With 2 wins ahead they have a good shot at keeping their #1 spot

[Brazil]

Defense is legit

surprisingly enough Stafford is also playing solid lately tbh
