      Dude it's crazy. At my workplace, I see customers come in with Lions jackets and hoodies and hats and just all kinds of merch constantly. In the past I rarely saw that but now? There are people everywhere signaling nothing but genuine excitement and interest in how they do this season. Like, even if we don't destroy everyone this season, I will be happy as a Detroiter knowing that the Lions got to be an actual contender for the title of strongest team in an NFL season.
      It's funny. In the past, I never watched football in any serious capacity. I saw games and watched quite a few with my grandfather but when I watched I didn't even know how the game worked entirely. The only things I really truly understood as concepts were the line of scrimmage, laterals, and like, the obvious components like touchdowns and field goals (I also didn't know why teams sometimes kicked for field goals instead of just going for a TD, that's how bad it was)
      Now, just a year later, I could tell you virtually anything about football. I still don't understand deeper concepts like strategy or play constructions, but I know a lot more than I used to.
      I don't know, I find it a bit funny that this year, the year some random Detroiter decides to learn the grit and clockwork of gridiron football, the Lions come out as a behemoth team. It FEELS like fate.

Josh Paschal has not played since week 1. Gibbs missed 2 games. Montgomery is going to miss some time after exiting the bucs game. Jamo was suspended the first four games. Branch missed two games.

    One thing you should have mentioned is that the Lions aren't even fully healthy right now. CJGJ got injured against the Falcons and is out for the season. Jamyr Gibbs and Brian Branch both got injured during/after the Packers game and haven't played since. St. Brown didn't play against Carolina, and Emanuel Mosely tore his right ACL on his first snap back from tearing his left ACL last year. Montgomery went out in the first quarter against the Buccs. And they are still one of the most dominant teams in the league despite that.

Strong Offense that slowly came on the year before with a top five offensive line and top 5 pass rush with great coaching on both sides of the ball. They even both have great GMs. Now, the eagles probably had more firepower than the Lions do, but I feel like the Lions also won't run into the Chiefs if they do make the superbowl.

    I don't think I can remember the last time an NFL team had this kind of depth. I was a little worried with all the injuries and the early Montgomery injury against a hot Tampa team coming off a bye week. But that win showed us that the entire team is filled with absolute DAWGS. This isn't a superstar driven team and next man up seems to be a lifestyle now. This is how you succeed long term, winning in the trenches and depth at every position. Shit we even have QB depth with Teddy at backup it's kinda crazy.

Now they are getting Gibbs and Jameson Williams going. Phewww. By week ten the offense should be running on all cylinders. Scary thought. This doesn’t even take into account how they have played with all the injuries to there starters so far this year. They are absolutely rolling right now. And it’s only going to get better.

The more reps he gets, the more Goff will see how open he gets on plays, in conjuncioun with This offense. He was open for the TD if Goff had thrown to him. Which is why they went back to him later. With Jamo AND Gibbs on the field at the same time with the others..... This Offense Is Truly Dangerous!

    Without a doubt the most popular success story in the league right now from non-fans. NFC North especially - as a Bears fan, this team having the chance to go to the NFCCG makes me brimming with excitement and I bet you Vikings-country people are in the same boat (FTP!!!).
    Your very last sentence says it all - winning games before they start because of buy-in and culture. The Bears may well have the worst culture in all of North American sports, so I can accept that we'll be perennial talent-wasting bottom-feeders like the Lions were for so long, and the script will just take time to flip. Maybe in the 2030s the Bears will get their own Dan Campbell and be able to rise from the toxic waste dump that is their organization (and once somebody shows up to Virginia McCaskey's house with garlic and a cross).

    One thing you should add for the Lions is their punter Jack Fox. He pinned Tampa deep twice. That setup the defense and helped them be even more effective. So even if the don't score on a drive, they have a punter who can set you within your own 10 yardline against a defense that is fantastic against the run. So even if you win the battle by getting a stop, the reward is a 90+ yard drive to score a touchdown. As you saw, they couldn't score one last weekend.

      They had the 6th pick but traded with Arizona to 12 for a extra second rounder. Can’t remember if it was the pick we used to get Laporta or Branch but either way a W in my book. I wanted Carter but there’s a reason 9 teams passed on him given his talent

    • @Zoned_Out
      @Zoned_Out Před 10 měsíci

      The Lions traded down from 6 with the Cardinals, and the Lions go with the 2nd round pick to get LaPorta for trading down. Carter is great, but a lot of the team passed due to his off-field issues and the fact that he showed up overweight. Carter couldn't have landed in a better spot with the Eagles, considering that they already had a great D-line and that it was filled with veterans that would keep him in check. There is also proof that on draft day, Carter called the Eagles, begging them to draft him and saying that he would make them not regret the choice and that he would fix his issues.
