The Lions would not be at home. They'd be in the playoffs. They would be matched up with Philly in Philly.

The lions are 80% to win any game; even at home.

Most likely outcome is 2-1

That's 9-5.

Need to win a road game to make playoffs
Need a road win to make QF
Need a road win to make nfc championship game
Need a road ....

You see where this is going.

Super bowl equity. Effectively 0

If the lions are .8 to win each home game they're 50% to win all 3

Go back to the Miami game though, that was a hell of a game winning drive against a very good defense. I didn't feel like Stafford played a terrible game yesterday (aside from that JFC slide), he just was almost immediately under pressure after snapping the ball, and his WR/TEs kept dropping nice passes. That big Ebron drop was a great pass, and the Corey Fuller ball was a perfect 50 yard bomb that went right through his arms. I only remember one or two really bad balls from Stafford (granted I turned the game off/missed most of the 2nd half)

That's a change from what they had before. Not really relevant obviously.

I meant "areNOT 80%" to win any game.


I feel we will crush one team. Slip by one team with a close win, and SOL one of these.

Just need gb to lose a few games. 😀

I would too, at least this year. Tannehill has been on fire.

Stafford wasn't great last week, but he was good, and played well enough, in fact i was fine with his play, no support from his receivers/te's or his banged up OL, hope Reiff can play Thursday.. Willie young has had a nice year for Chicago though he didn't register any stats last week, not even sure if he's hurt or what, but I bet he plays hard against us if hes in there..

not sure what that means? coming from a guy who says a receiver has a 10% chance of catching a ball when it hits both his hands, i'm guessing it could mean anything

It means you're being obviously overoptimistic because you're a homer. It's a reference to baghdad bob, the iraqi press dude who kept saying everything was ok while their military was destroyed in the shock and awe phase of the iraq war.

Stafford may play better in later weeks, especially at home against worse competition, but he sucked last week. End of story.

fair enough, i definitely won't try to convince anybody stafford played good last week, its just my opinion.. and i will admit I have a case of "homerism" but i won't let go that game was filled with big drops and missed opportunites that would have made the game at least competitive, we were never going to win, but still would like to see those plays made.. anyways, it is on to thursday and the bears, keys are health, bears suck but they still have pass rushers, and if we are without reiff and warford, and raiola acting like a headcase we may struggle, but i see a big bounce back game, and in the words of the greatest QB in the game, we should all just R-E-L-A-X

Were I a fan of a team with Godgers on it I suspect I would be considerably more relaxed.

I think it's cute how everyone is acting like this game will be anything but a mother****ing dog fight.

Exactly allin.

Everyone remembers we were 7-2.

"Just a 7-2 team that played both conference leaders on the road"

No big deal. Tough games


The lions won two games in a row where they had like 10% equity with less than 10 minutes to go.

This ****bag of a team should be 5-6 right now.


All that said. Just win two of the next three and we are set up with a good shot at the playoffs.
