Well, they are failing miserably in one department and that is TOs. If that one problem is solved its all over

The best news for the lions and the way they're playing is--the packers are going into Dallas as underdogs

And cowboys have to. Get a win

The bears also have a tight matchup this weekend

The lions are still pretty much in a must win situation because is expect either the bears or packers to win


If we win and they both lose--that would be epic


Even then I wouldn't feel like it's locked up

Its turnovers lol

Without them we would of won against those teams, not despite of.

Over half the games we won we won by freak luck

The other half of the games we won with something more
Than freak luck

Watch the Seahawks broncos or other elite teams--they "win" games

Granted to win a Super Bowl you only need a string of games--still... It's hard for me to feel like the lions deserve to be in the post season this year--they can't lock up a division with the other 2 competitors using their backups?

That being said--I do believe we will Luckily make the postseason and if we stop turning the ball over--we will be contenders

Scenario: We make the playoffs as the 4 seed. We play 5 seed Carolina. I think we win that game

Honestly. I think we can beat any team in the NFC minus the Saints. I think even on our best day the Saints are just too strong of a team.

Drops and TOs

Killing us

I think the angle stafford throws from causes drops --receivers can't see it come out of his hand.

Also he bullets the ball when there's no reason for him to do so.

Why should WRs see it come out? They spot the ball in the air and a drop usually means the ball should have been caught but wasnt so I blame about 90% of the drops on the WRs with the exception of a few over/under throws that the WRs didnt have a chance to catch

And why wouldnt you want bullets? If the ball gets there .3 seconds faster that means the player has .3 seconds sooner to accelerate. I look at it like this, this is the NFL and they're getting paid millions of dollars for a reason. Catch the fucking ball.
