Thanksgiving Day football, no Bills talk

[mannc]

Caleb Williams is a slightly bigger version of Bryce Young…

I gotta give it up to Chicago’s D. Doing everything possible to keep them in this game but they’ll lose by 30 cause eventually their going to tire

The Bears need to finally dump the "GSH" from their jerseys. How long has he been dead for?

This drive is exactly what I'm worried about

 

Detroit can really pound the ball.

 

Just wish they used Montgomery more since I'm starting him in fantasy! 😅

Yeah, I don't see how they can be controlled on the ground when a defense overweights the deep passing game.  Notice, I didn't mention the name of a future Detroit opponent that might tend to overweight the deep passing game defense at the expense of controlling their opponent's running game.

If the Bills defense is as good as the Bears, we should have little trouble beating the Lions.

The Bears offense is putrid…and that is a complement to what they really are.

[MasterStrategist]

Bears might have found something bringing 5 man rushes.  Chicago doesn't like to do it, but that's the only way right now.

 

Detroit letting Bears hang around with 3 FGs.  1 TD by Bears and they're back in it.

I don’t want to get ahead of things here, I respect that the Bills should be focusing on the 49ers right now, but, they can beat the Lions in a couple of weeks.  Jared Goff still isn’t that good.

If I was any team with an offense in a big game, I’d load the box and make Goff beat me. 

[Augie]

Can the Lions stay this sharp for another two months plus??? 

 

They are impressive, but we have looked unstoppable at times. Then it always fades at some point. They sure look good, though.

The family still owns the team so that seems unlikely

Lions LOVE to blitz, I see.

[Eastport bills]

Chicago is a poorly coached, undisciplined mess of a team. To think they had the 1st pick Caleb.Williams, a top 5 receiver Odunze, Moore, Allen, Kmet, Swift from Philly and they will be 4 and 8. They have a defensive coach and their defense is just pedestrian.  They lose close games, they lose blowouts and they are boring with poor play calling. They don’t tackle, they don’t cover receivers in man and that’s what they play mostly. They have expensive FAs(Edmunds, Sweat) and it’s obvious they need a new GM and coach. I sympathize with the fans in Chicago who must be on suicide watch.

That's unfortunate

So it looks like the Lions will play a total of three games outdoors this year.  Not sure where the Super Bowl is, but that would be only their fourth.

I just have this feeling DJ Moore will be available to trade in the offseason

[Motorin']

The Bears OLine stinks. They haven't done any favors for their rookies qb's, Fields or Caleb Williams.

[Goin Breakdown]

Seriously no flag?

These first two games are gonna suck. Lions will win by 30, Dallas will probably blow out the giants 

The giants should hit rush a bunch today and i think Dallas might get like 6 sacks on Locke.

 

Will be interesting to see how the giants offense plays with Locke today though.  
 

both teams would like to play well but lose in the end for draft position.  The best case scenario for the giants is to lose on a game winning field goal like 31-30 or something.  They are in play for the number 1 pick.

Again 4th and short, he’s on the line of scrimmage and instead of attacking the blocker he moves laterally on 4th and inches. The way Edmunds plays is maddening.

I used to think Edmunds was a “good” player, mostly due to his measurables, but couldn’t argue if someone wanted to label him “average.” I think he’s closer to average than good now, despite the contract he signed with the Bears.

No wonder they have a losing record.  Clown stuff
