Detroit Lions 2023
Re: Detroit Lions 2023
The Bucs should win the south. They have won four straight with New Orleans and Carolina to play.
Dallas at Tampa Bay would be a rematch from last season.
I prefer the Lions play Seattle.
Rams finish at Giants & 49ers.
Seahawks have the Steelers & Cardinals.
The Rams hold the tiebreaker over Seattle.
Can Seattle finish 2-0 and LA go 1-1? We'll see.

Re: Detroit Lions 2023
I would love to see us beat Stafford and the Rams at Ford Field! The media would eat it up!

Re: Detroit Lions 2023
TBH, a Lions v. Rams game scares me. I'd much rather see a rematch against Seattle (which as of now is the slight favorite in terms of scenarios). Next week is big for Detroit because a loss would lock them into a 3-seed but a win would set them up for a shot at a 1 or a 2 (the 1 relying on Baltimore beating the 49ers tonight).
Theoretically, the Lions could end up playing, in order of likelihood:
Most likely:
1 - Seattle
2 - Rams
3 - Vikings
4 - Packers
---------------
Least likely, but plausible:
5 - Atlanta
6 - New Orleans
7 - Nobody (a bye)
----------------
Highly unlikely, but theoretically possible:
8 - Chicago Bears
9 - NY Giants
(it can't be the Bucs as the Bucs cannot get a wild card under any scenario where they don't win the division)

Great… you want to play the team we keep losing to by a field goal at the last minute…SD45 wrote: ↑Mon Dec 25, 2023 7:45 amThe Bucs should win the south. They have won four straight with New Orleans and Carolina to play.

I'd much rather play Seattle than Stafford and the Rams.

Re: Detroit Lions 2023
Quite frankly, I don't like either/or.
If we draw Seattle, we've lost four straight to them, and hosting the game would mean nothing.
If we draw the Rams, I feel like a loss is just waiting to happen, just because.

Re: Detroit Lions 2023
The Lions never seem to beat Seattle, and I'd love to see them eliminate Stafford, so give me the Rams.
I can completely understand why many folks would prefer a Seattle matchup, though. The Rams' body of work this season is more impressive.
Wouldn't it be something if we were to have a Lions - Browns Super Bowl this season? Browns have looked damn good of late.

Fuck Jalen Hurts - that was a dirty ass throwdown.

Re: Detroit Lions 2023
I'm just happy Kansas City lost. So sick of Travis Kelce!!!
The Raiders' interim head coach should be given a multi-year head coaching contract offer. He's earned it. Impressive turnaround by the Raiders; they've bounced back very nicely since losing 3 - 0 to the Vikings. He is 4-3 since assuming the helm following Josh McDaniel's firing.

Two things I ran into yesterday.MWmetalhead wrote: ↑Mon Dec 25, 2023 12:56 pmWouldn't it be something if we were to have a Lions - Browns Super Bowl this season? Browns have looked damn good of late.
One was a graphic noting that this was the first time both have had double-digit win seasons in the same season in 70 (!) years.
The other was, when I was watching Fox's "Who won the day?" segment following Miami's win, Howie Long's pick was Browns coach Kevin Stefanski - I think the exact thing he cited was, Stefanski became the first NFL coach ever to hit 10 wins in a single season, while needing to use four different QBs just to get there. Which is certainly an eye-popping stat.

Re: Detroit Lions 2023
Good News/Bad News time:
Good News: San Fran's down 33-12 as we close the 3rd. Would take one heckuva comeback to dig outta this one. Path to #1 seed just became at least reachable.
Bad News: Assuming this holds, hard not to think the whole damned thing just became Baltimore's to lose. Who can the NFC possibly put up who could beat them in the big game?

Re: Detroit Lions 2023
Us when we play the way we did in our best games this season… we certainly can put up points in a hurry and lots of them… is there anyone in the AFC that can beat Baltimore before hand?Mike wrote: ↑Mon Dec 25, 2023 10:48 pmGood News/Bad News time:

They’ve lost to the Browns, Steelers and Colts…
