PISTONS BABY. I think they'll be good this year for some deranged reason.

Also the Lions will probably miss the playoffs this year which sucks. Beat the Packers please.

I'm not hopeful for the pistons, I think the wings probably have another 2 years to get back to contention, and the lions are probably a year out from the same. The tigers will be rebuilding for several years I think. Yay Detroit sports!

"Well they're just so multiple; they have a lot of different pressures and types of pressures," Rodgers recently said of Pettine's group. "This may sound -- I don't know how it's going to sound. They're giving you pressures where they can actually get home. We haven't had that issue in a while, where they scheme up pressures to have a free guy on the play."

It's too unproven to get excited about. But there is every reason to believe that it will be somewhat improved, and if the offense is working as it should they don't need to be world-beaters to win games anyways. I mean keep the opponent below thirty points and you're giving GB a good chance to win

Unless literally everyone gets injured I don't see any possible way that the defense could get worse. The Packers D was bottom of the league in several situational stats last year.

Yup. The ones that stick out the most are on 3rd down and in the red zone, where they were smoking hot trash.

Yeah that's exactly what I meant, to not expect an amazing defense by the standards of the entire NFL but to expect definite improvement from last year which should be enough to win quite a few games

After I got my first "real" job in IT, I used my first payheck on a father's day present for my dad. A pair of tickets to our first ever Packers game. He's been a life long die hard and local fan, but has never spent the money on tickets.
Those tickets were for the season finale at Lambeau where the Packers game them that 0-16 mark. lol

The 2008 Lions threw for 18 passing touchdowns. 12 were caught by Calvin Johnson, and no other player had more than one.

I can’t decide whether I’m more happy, relieved, or frustrated he retired. Honestly it probably comes down to frustrated, motherfucker was a monster to watch, maybe not so much exciting to my taste as Randy Moss, but he was like seeing a ballerina crossed with a bulldozer.

The Browns took two teams to overtime, and another four were within a score. The Lions I think kept four games within a score with a fifth, vs Washington, was by 8 points. The Browns heaviest loss was by 17 points, and the most points they conceded was 38, while the Lions lost by more than 17 points seven times, and conceded 38 points or more 5 times. If they played each other on a neutral field, the Browns would win by 20 points easy

I appreciate his honesty. You don't hear this enough in the NFL and I think team cohesion is wonderful but sometimes you need to call out poo poo effort for what it is

I was reading about this in the State Journal this morning. He was running the scout team offense in the back half of practice yesterday and got pissed off that some of the rookie receivers weren't running the routes on the cards they were given prior to each play. He wound up hurling the final pass of practice at the sideline after his frustration boiled over.
