If we sift through all the doom and gloom content across Lions RUclips content providers, I think it's heartening to realize the following. Lions current playoff probabilities: 1 seed - 70%, 2 seed - 15%, 5 seed - 13%, miss playoffs -
I appreciate you guys and what you put out there. It's NFL football. Every team has injuries, we seem to have a few more than a couple. But that's life in the NFL. Just ask San Francisco. Got to put up or shut up. We'll either be good with the mix mash of everyone we pull off the wire. Or we won't. One things for sure, they're going to give it one hell of a try. It definitely sucks losing key players. But, is what it is. I have no doubt we're going to try to get everybody up to speed, and put everybody in the position to be everything we need them to be. That's why we have the best coaching staff in the NFL. This is why you get the coaches you get. For moments like this. I'm all in. Thanks guys for putting out your stuff, enjoy you two more than probably anybody else out there. Happy holidays my friends! All of my friends! Let's do this!
Adams should be able to help stop the run. And also run in coverage with TEs and some RBs. He'd do better than an actual traditional LB in coverage. If theres 3 or 4 WRs, theyll just go in dime or nickel. And Adams can probably still run with a wr here and there, but just not on a regular basis
He can definitely do that better than some of the other healthy LBs they have on the roster right now. I’m really excited to see how he performs out there on Thursday
I’m watching this on Thursday. Losing the four D Linemen in one week is almost unheard of. I have never heard of any team losing two starters and two active depth players from the D Line group in one week. BUT, I have every faith that the guys left, Alim, Za’darius, and Muhammad, will still perform at a very high level and the rotational guys will be at least adequate replacements.
This is what we need to hear! All the sports commentators are quick to turn their backs on our guys… last week we’re the best… this week it’s “oooh we gotta watch out” and they’re betting on the eagles and not the lions anymore. Smh 😡
That’s a good question. I want to say no for the time being because I think the Lions want him to continue to focus on RB, but I’d be interested to see if they would give him a few snaps if the injuries keep piling up
I get it but I think the Lions will be ok. The Lions just have to continue to play their style of football and limit the big plays by GB. If they can do that they’ll have a great chance of winning
When your D line looks like this, maybe its time to consider maybe your brand of physical football has gone too far. Injuries during their games. Injuries during their practice. Injuries in their sleep.
Right now other NFC teams want the #1 seed the Lions NEED the #1 seed because we desperately need the rest so guys can get healthy especially on defense because the Lions D-line and linebacker core are just completely decimated the offense is gunna have to score 35+ a game for the rest of season IMO again because of injuries you can only lose so many key guys before their is a dip because of the talent level and knowing the system etc
That bye would be clutch for the Lions and you’re not wrong about the offense needing to take on more of a load. But I don’t think it will necessarily have to be by scoring that many points. Simply winning the time of possession and controlling clock could help this defense a lot
Twitter’s search function and other facets of the app have completely taken a dive lately. It isn’t helpful for people like us who use it for work. I’m also not paying for premium lol ever.
Za'Darius Smith Weeks 11-13 PFF Grade Edge Rankings (since joining the Detroit Lions):
• 83.1 PFF Defensive Grade (11th)
• 81.9 PFF Pass Rush Grade (9th)
• 17 Total QB Pressures (t-1st)
It’s all going to be fine.
Yes it is💙

Would love to be there but its kind of a drive from Houston. Have fun

Thanks for the kind words and go Lions!

I think the Lions will be fine with the additions!
Who can look at this team and think everything's fine.

Who is the artist that did the pencil drawing of Barry? That’s good.
Thanks! A friend of mine did it several years ago as a gift.

Some sports commentators can be so fickle with their takes
They just try to make drama imo
I agree D line is coming on
Aye-yooo...
Hey Meko, where did you get that hat?
The New Era website. Think it’s from their new “Make Change” collection
7 days between games is not a short week.
3 games in 12 days is a very long week
I wonder if there has been any consideration for playing Vaki on defense.
That’s a good question. I want to say no for the time being because I think the Lions want him to continue to focus on RB, but I’d be interested to see if they would give him a few snaps if the injuries keep piling up
If the lions lose to GB they lose the necessary tiebreakers to Philly
So if they don’t beat GB kiss goodbye the 1 seed
Im wondering if its in time for the GB game. We may have to lose the next game playing at 50% effort in order to win down the road at this point
Scared of this game

Didn’t we play the same way last year and didn’t have that many injuries
I’d agree with that except the offense isn’t that beat up (outside of Taylor Decker)
Really, stop, damn dude, get real!
When GB won one of their rings, they had over 15 bodies on IR. Please powder your face man

Bluesky is not better. It is a left wing echo chamber.
