2024 Detroit Lions

[ABetterDetroit]

The lions thread this year is shorter for going into week 13. Not sure if it’s just because the whining and bitching has been quieter or we don’t want to jinx them, It must be one or the other. Anyway back to the thread subject… they have played ok this season.

"played ok this season"??? BEST record in the NFL, best point differential in all NFL, and playing without several key defensive starters! Maybe watch a game or two before making such an ignorant comment.

I assumed it was a joking/sarcasm comment.

Lions can't afford to slow down or get laxed. The pressure is on them more than ever before from both fans and NFL to make something happen this year. More money was spent on this Lions team than anytime since the Ford family had owned them. The Lions can't afford to shut down like they had done the 2nd half of the playoffs game last year. Some tin foiled hat sayers claim that Vegas calls the shots. If by any chance that's true the Lions should just tell Vegas " Screw you. This is our year"

What a silly post from start to finish.

[Hypestyles]

best of luck for the remaining games. the recent injuries seem serious.

[ABetterDetroit]

Well, If there is one thing Dan Campbell is not it’s “Laxed”

[Cincinnati_Kid]

I hope it's not the case but, some talking heads think they may have peaked too soon. They're next two games are big ones, GB and Buffalo.

I don't believe in the peaked too soon thing although I am glad they lost one as it just seems so unlikely to run through the entire season and playoffs without a single loss. If they don't play as well the next few games it's likely because all the injuries are going to catch up with them.

What loss, TB? That was the 2nd game of the season. Definitely agree the injuries may slow them down. They did sign two former pro bowlers LB Kwon Alexander, and S Jamal Adams. However, Adams has been injured a lot and asked to be released by the Titans. I don't know if they have anything left in the tank, especially Adams.
