3 in a row? I, for one, am sad that the season is ending already. This ending to the season may provide the team with a bit of a boost heading in to the offseason, so I can’t complain. Even the guys on ESPN are cutting us some slack finally? What’s going on here? The… [Read more…]

Two in a row, how sweet it is. Judging by the reaction of the players and coaches, we made the playoffs. And according to oddsmakers, we have too. The Lions are 10-4 against the spread this year, in other words, people still don’t respect us– as discussed yesterday. This week, Miami. And honestly, I think… [Read more…]

“Well that wasn’t pretty, but uh, it was beautiful.” -Jim Schwartz I, of course, was traveling during the entirety of this game. Thankfully, I saw the last 3 minutes when I stopped for lunch at a Mexican food restaurant that had a TV. I can’t express how excited I was to learn that we won… [Read more…]

Another week, another tight loss. I feel like I say that every week. What I don’t feel like I say every week is how much the NFL loves to screw us. Maybe I should start. This week, Drew Stanton again. I admit, I was really hard on him last week. He played his ass off… [Read more…]

The end of the season is fast approaching, which will serve as a temporary bandage for our bleeding hearts. Another year, another Thanksgiving loss. Not much else to say about it, except for we only played one half of football– and you see what that earns you. Last week also moved me closer to the… [Read more…]

Well, I’m not even going to go over last week’s game because it still hurts. If you want to know what I thought, check this out. This week, it’s the good ‘ol Thanksgiving game. And I’m not so sure I’m excited about facing who I consider the best team in pro football right now. Regardless,… [Read more…]

Hey! We lost another game we should have won. And (I’m assuming like most others) I’m still pissed about it. What Linehan did with that offense in Buffalo was a sham. 12 points on the Bills? Come on. I can’t even talk about it anymore. So, this week we get to travel to the “great… [Read more…]

So, Matt Stafford is hurt again. I blame this on a combination of things– none of which are him being “injury prone.” One thing: the offensive line needs major help, especially at tackle. The Lions published a self-promoting article about how Gosder Cherilus was “showing improvement.” First of all, I’ve never liked the pick. I… [Read more…]

We won. We won. We won. How great it feels to say that, and on a depressing sidenote, it made up for MSU’s performance on Saturday. Why’d we win? Two reasons: defensive line pressure, and consistent offense. Consistent in gaining 1 yard on 1st down? Yes, but at least it wasn’t a loss. I handed… [Read more…]

Last week, bye week. The week before, loss at the Giants, Shaun Hill broke his arm, and yet again penalties killed us. Calvin Johnson had a monster game, and Drew Stanton filled in for Hill pretty well considering the circumstances. The penalties have got to stop though. 91 yards, those are yards we’re giving to… [Read more…]
