were gonna win the super bowl anyway...that'd just be icing on the cake, so to speak.

Say Kevin Smith become 100% for the regular season, how do you guys see the RB workload go between Smith and Best?

That's way too big of an if, since he won't. But I'll play your game.

If Smith were 100%, Id say he gets about 50% of the carries, Best gets about 35%, and AB gets 15%.

Where'd I come up the numbers? Just randomly picked numbers that added up to 100.

yw

Id be surprised if Brown gets any carries much less 15% he might keep a spot as KR/PR just because derrick williams blew in his rookie year, and I'm gonna throw up if I see Northcutt returning punts again

wow, i also just noticed detroit lions website has Spievey listed as a S.. Our CB's are dreadful lol @ Chris Houston and Eric King (I guess)

Stafford such a boss. Can't wait to win the super bowl with this core we are building.

We will forever be known as the most faithful fans ever. The brave group of elite men who didn't give up on an 0-16 team. The men who dared to believe that impossible is nothing.

I have a feeling this season will be fun. If the offense stays healthy they should score some points. Defense outside of the front 4 is still meh at best.

I just want them to keep some games close and maybe luckbox 1-2 more wins than expected

TIM ****ING TOONE

so.... 1 to 2 wins?

is that T-Baby?

Wow Dre Bly back in Detroit! I'll take it our secondary needs anybody we can get.

silly bonds. 10-12
Yeah, couldn't believe that when I saw it. Whatever though, probably better than most of the CB's we have on roster. Hopefully he doesn't showboat after an INT down by 30 and fumble.

He is a top 5 practice squad player. A pro bowl practice squad player imo.

Is that Woody Harrelson?

Thank god... Anthony Henry/Chris Houston makes me wanna cry

Spievey listed at safety?

Henry is long gone, thank God.. yeah last I checked DetroitLions.com had Spievy listed as Safety

Dre Bly: Least physical corner in the league or least physical corner ever?

Nobody will ever be less physical than Deion.

Dre Bly is a playmaker in the secondary, we'll see what he still has left in the tank.. it is definitely an upgrade to what we have, and will provide some competition for a starting spot

Don't forget Antonio Cromartie

read article on Spievy other day on m live and he is competing for the num 1 CB spot...so no safety must be a typo.

King/Houston are the starters as of now.

BTW he's 5'11 195...I really hope he's not a safety.

Yeah, I'm excited. I'll be happy with like 6-8 wins as long as Stafford shows a lot of progression. Less obviously terrible decisions. And maybe the defense can at least step it up a little bit so he doesn't have to throw 40 passes per game. I'm less optimistic about the latter one unless Suh is like the GOAT rookie DT. Even if he is we'll likely still suck at defense.

The year after this one is where I want to see major leaps forward. And we need to be making the playoffs the year after that, if not competing for the Superbowl. I'm pumped about our chances for the not-too-distant future. We have some real talent on this roster and I will be devastated if they don't pan out.

ugh, greer doesnt deserve suh

Good post.

I think we'll be in 4-6 wins range. Our schedule is pretty brutal imo.

season needs to start NOW
