Detroit Lions: We're Going to Bite a Kneecap Off
Larry Foote will be a Detroit Lion, ~100% chance of that.
Theres also talk between DET/KC that would involve Glen Dorsey coming here for our 2nd rd pick. Not sure I understand why Pioli wants to get rid of him but I'd gladly ship out our 2nd for him.
You add Dorsey/Foote and it makes our draft look that much better. Shaun Rogers also said he wants to come back to Detroit once he gets released from the Browns, which looks likely.
Biggest question going into the season is will Matt Stafford be the starter from weak 1.
Minny has no heart.
14-2 mother ****ers.
15-2 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lions beat the Vikings in a way NO ONE EVER EXPECTED!!!!!!! STIFLING DEFENSE!!!!
Gibbs went all Al Bundy on them!!!!
4 TOUCHDOWNS POLK HIGH!!!!
First round bye!! Let’s GAMEPLAN AND REST UP!!!
Super proud of this team!!!!
so so so happy for this group and for all of us that have been longtime Lions fans. enjoy it, fellas!
That defensive effort was a master class in coaching from Glenn. Bye is so fkn huge
Anzalone and Robertson? Just wow. A warrior and his dawg
DL? Wow again, ZERO starters from week 1 but still consistently getting pressure. 2 sacks and 10 QB hits, Darnold looked like he wished he was still with the Jets
Kerby? Targeted one time? So not good enough for the pro-bowl but so good a team schemes their entire playoff life on not throwing his direction. That's fkn nuts
What a f'n season. Sure hope it continues and they take it all, but it's really something to look back in time to the start of the MCDC/Holmes era to now. A super bowl win legit earns statues.
It's also hilarious Campbell is somehow not going to win COTY and Holmes never wins EOTY. I guess HOF will have to do.
I wanna consume 1100mg of caffeine to start the day like my hero Dan Campbell.
I remember caring about individual awards when we had guys like Barry, Calvin, and Stafford and it was all we really had going. Now I could care less if guys get snubbed. Give KOC all the coach of the year awards. Who gives a ****. We just bodied them in the biggest game of the regular season. Playoff time!
Washington seems like a good matchup. Yeah running QBs have done some damage but I trust Glenn to dial up enough to bait the rookie into mistakes. Their defense looks like others we have hung 40 on.
Drawing WAS, while ensuring we only see one of MIN/LAR/PHI in the playoffs is 100% best-case scenario. Them changing the rules however many years ago to re-align the brackets after round 1 (which means any upset winner heading to the 1-seed, vs. the 1-seed always playing the 4/5 winner) is a massive extra advantage to the 1 seed, which already had the biggest advantage possible with a bye.
Anything can happen in one game, but Daniels is going to be experiencing something he hasn't seen before - a road win in Detroit is an awful lot to ask of a rookie QB. And yeah, I think Johnson and Goff will have the offense ready to execute.

Raymond James crowd seemed to be about split as far as I could tell. Gonna be a bit louder for Daniels and no way Washington fans make that much noise at Ford Field.
Wash run defense is bottom tier, Anzalone back is once again huge vs mobile QB. Really my biggest worry is if Arnold is healthy enough to suit up this week and beyond - any other positive news on injury front is just gravy.
Mike Evans is a stud but is Lattimore cooked or still injured? He looked like a replacement level player out there last night and Wash traded a 3rd, 4th & 6th for him and a 5th.
