Yeah, at least they act like its a priority. I'd rather make em drive the field in a long 11-12 play series, gives us a lot more chances to get a turnover. The big plays have been whats killed us too, mainly on the deep ball. I like what Quinn did last year, and they say he has been a leader in the locker room.

Pretty sweet read. Makes it seem like they know what they want, and how to do it. But we have been sweet talked by coaches before lol

yeah I never put a number on it but did get the feeling most offenses didn't run that many plays against us.

I don't know much about judging offensive linemen.

There's tons of hype around warford

Is he really that good?

I think PFF had him as a top 5 guard in the league

I know he was PFFs rookie of the year even though he's a guard. He was that good.

All we need to do is tank one more year and we will have an awesome offensive line!

nah, we don't want to do that this year, I see and feel like we have a lot of potential this year, I am hoping for playoffs, and maybe at least 1 playoff win

Well if we tank, I think it will be like every other year, and not be intentional...lmao
We have the personnel to be a winning team, now more than ever. It all depends on whether the new coaching staff can stop us from being the same old Lions in my opinion. We can go as far as our mistakes allow us, because that's generally why we lose, not because we are just being dominated and are unable to do anything like in the past. If Caldwell can change the culture and get these guys disciplined, look the fuck out NFL.
