TNF - Lions @ Packers

[EmotionallyUnstable]

As much as it sucks watching this game, I’m so happy to experience the Packers demise 

[LabattBlue]

Packers fans deserve to have to take a bite of the ***** sandwich…after 30+ years of Favre and Rodgers.

Yeah, Detroit fans getting a home playoff game would be really cool for them. I’m also happy for Goff. He might not be elite, but he’s better than he gets credit for. Goff was part of McVay’s early success with the Rams. He was treated as being completely disposable, but the Lions look in better shape than the Rams. 

 

I'm always happy when QBs that are unceremoniously dumped prove that they can still play.  It's easy to cheer for guys like Goff, Gino and even Baker considering how they were used up and cast aside for the next shiny thing by their former teams.  Watching Gino is extra delightful considering what's happening to the Jets at QB now.

 

Also, if there's any group of fans that deserve to have a good run, it's Lions fans.

Green Bay is going to make a game of this

Cranky Al is a national treasure. By the 4th quarter of these games he's downright hysterical.

 

 

I agree. Last year he was exceptional with his sarcasm and wit

[stuvian]

This Lions DL is scary good 

[BuffaloBillyG]

I feel like guys like Kelce and Gronk made people forget how dominant Tony Gonzalez was as a TE. Dude was a BEAST.

I agree. And I’m not sure why I’d expect him to be different than any other 78 year old at 11pm on a Thursday night still at work. Tired, experienced, Al is the best commentator in the NFL.

All that rebuilding in Detroit since 1955 is finally paying off

I think that’s what it’s going to be too. Can’t wait

I'm not sure any QB in history has had worse situations than Baker.  In six seasons hes had to deal with Hue Jackson, Freddie Kitchens, and Matt Rhule.   

 

If the Browns had any sense they would have put Stefanski in place but signed less vocal wideouts.  Putting Baker with idiots like OBJ and Landry was a no win situation.  Meanwhile he gets them to the playoffs and nearly beats the Chiefs.

 

Feel like the guy could have been a decent NFL QB but his physical limitations required the right situation.  

[VaMilBill]

Terrible penalty. He hit him inbounds 

[Heels20X6]

Lions getting jobbed with two terrible calls by the officials.  League must have buzzed in to try and make the game closer.

[stuvian]

Some very wussy calls 

[BillsFan130]

I’m not convinced the nfl is rigged.

 

But…

 

I am convinced officials make calls when a team is losing bad ,to try to make the games closer

 

[EmotionallyUnstable]

Why go for that?

 

It worked out but feel like you should have taken the points. 
 

What do I know

[stuvian]

Lions DL is in the GB backfield every play 

[BuffaloRebound]

this green bay O-Line is a train wreck.  unbelievably bad.
