I'm happy the Falcons curb-stomped the Packers and didn't even leave the illusion of a competitive football game.

It was great. Its the last time I was truly happy about anything football.

mastershakeman posted:It's funny I can't recall the game but I can recall laughing at Favre's night being ruined. I wonder how Corey Wooton is doing. Tracey Porter picked off Rodgers and then broke up a pass in the end zone to seal it. I can't think of any other reason he was starting this year, but that game.

Especially for Mike Glennon of all people.

Henchman of Santa posted:That's a good answer but there was a brief period in the early 90s that probably works. Post-Bad Boys Pistons and pre-dynasty Red Wings. The Bad Boys were late 80s early 90s, then the Wings got good around '93. I guess that leaves '91 as the one possible year the Lions could be that.

Dexo posted:Glennon looked fine most of the game. He finished the first half with like...40 yards passing. If you can't ask him to do more than that then sit his rear end down. quote:Cohen? Howard? Ya'll are gonna be our entire offense I guess. It might have actually worked had Glennon not been late on his throw for 2nd and goal. The Bellamy pass was pretty good, 3rd down was awful, 4th down he failed to step up and lost the game. Dude cannot move at all in the pocket, and if the offense ever gets behind in the sticks he's only capable of getting Tarik Cohen killed for a 3 yard gain.

schweens posted:Obviously the Bears game should be a win for the Packers but if they don't get Daniels, Perry, or Bakhtiari back by Thursday it could be close. Howard and Cohen are nasty backs even if the Steelers tackling helped them out. Really the Bears offense could be pretty good in the future once they free Trubisky and get some WRs. Wheaton looked bad in particular yesterday I don't actually know how good the Bears WRs are (probably not great), because Glennon is too much of a coward to throw to them.

Wilford Cutlery posted:Make no mistake, he's thrown to them all right. They keep dropping or missing catches. Glennon or not, a couple of legit wideouts are needed. The Wheaton drops were pretty bad, but some of those others were just dudes trying not to die given how late he was on the throws.

Dubious posted:the only lions fan im aware of on earth that legitimately hates the vikings is detroit dogg It's something I've heard from a few people living in the area. The only dislike the Packers for being good, the Bears are mostly harmless, but there's just a seething rage at the Vikings. Maybe it's because they steal a lot of the pity thunder for having such spectacular gently caress-ups in NFCCGs, whereas the Lions biggest boo-boos are never winning a game/getting there in the first place. Of course, one or more of those people could be detroit dogg.
