MCDC kinda HAD to "gamble" when he first got here to flip the script. They didn't have the horses to conventionaly compete. Now that they do have the horses, it has made the Lions a mentally tougher team that can handle adversity. They are successful far more than unsuccessful on 4th down, meaning it isn't the random gambling many make it out to be.

Lot of coaches and talking heads hate it because it makes their jobs harder.

I agree with Rogue One, hard disagree with Force Awakens.

He wasn't a net upgrade over Zac Wilson. Age has passed him by, and I wouldn't let that mental clusterfuck anywhere near a young QB.

You think they'll stop billing kicked devices? Silly goose.

But, but, but he's going to make the right people suffer.

True, but these guys wouldn't have a platform if Disney Star Wars didn't royaly suck.

Doesn't matter how diverse the cast is if the script is an afterthought.

Thunderbird in 2024 still doesn't give you the option to use 12 hour time.

It is, but not enough to move the needle. It also carries a bunch of bloat.

The conservative Middle-Eastern population in SE Michigan were far, far more fearful of getting a WOMAN president than anything.

It matters to Trump voters.

He has a VPN for outgoing, not incoming. I would guess a desktop client.

St Brown gets 4 years, $120M
Sewell gets 4 years, $112M, becomes highest paid offensive lineman in the NFL.

Draft starts tomorrow and now we only have Goff left to get done.

 

The Lions have matched Brock Wright’s three-year, $12 million offer sheet with the San Francisco 49ers.

While LaPorta may be our #1 going forward, Wright played 44% of the Lions' snaps. He's still a big part of our offense.

 

One year deal, but details haven't been released yet.

 

Reynolds signs a two year, $14M deal with the Denver Broncos.

Guess DPJ is WR3 for now.

 

Detroit Lions cornerback Cam Sutton is wanted in connection with a domestic violence incident in Florida.

Not the news we wanted to hear.

 

Lions sign former Ravens Guard, Kevin Zeitler, to a one year contract, pending physical.

 

Hey everyone, I recently acquired the 4k77, 4k80, and 4k83. However, the 4k80 one looks grainy. 77 and 83 look clear in comparison. Did I just get a bad copy, or does 4k80 have issues?

 

Lions bring back DPJ on a 1 year, $2M contract.

 

Reader is the best run stuffing nose tackles in the league. Should help us in all phases of defense by swallowing up and pushing around those interior linemen.

 

Holmes and Campbell were extended for 4 more years.
