Stafford looking real familiar this week :jbhmm:

he’s as I said. He ain’t good enough to carry a team alone. But he’s too good to easily find his replacement. Clearly a upgrade from Goff but not the fukking mvp they tried to make him last week.

He needs everything to go his way. Which is okay, but that needs to be acknowledged.

the lions ain’t never had a great roster
They were at the very least good enough to win a division title, especially considering the fact that there were years where the other teams were missing their starting qbs.

In 2014 they did. They had one of the top defenses in the NFL and a hall of famer top WR in Calvin Johnson as well as a really good WR in Golden Tate. All they had to do was beat Green Bay and they would have had a first round bye and won the NFC north I believe.

So Calvin Johnson and golden tate is a great nfl team.:gucci:

I can’t believe what I’m seeing in here
That 2014 team had a pro bowl QB, 2 pro bowl WRs, a pro bowl DT and safety and a top 2 defense in the NFL. It's revisionist history to say that wasn't a great roster because they did what the Lions typically do and snatch defeat out of the jaws of victory.

Bro they lost to every good team they played that year .


They feasted on average/bad teams .

They were an above average team that just looked great to lions fans because we’ve been watching garbage for 100 years

Still not sure what to expect from this team because I have no clue how good SF actually is.

wouldn’t shock me if the won tonight :yeshrug:

Packers seem a mess and just lost one of their best pass rushers

The defense was great. They held every team under their season average for points. Even the games we lost in 2014. That defense caught lightning in a bottle. Offense underachieved that year.

Just thinking that it's pretty damn bad that we are such a dog on national television. We might get smoked.
