The thing about Ebron on the Lions is that he was never a bad player, and was oftentimes a very good one, but he struggled with a ton of drops (Especially in his first few seasons), was never a huge contributor to the passing game, and wasn't great at blocking which is what the Lions really needed from the position.

e: And yeah, him getting picked at 10 was always an albatross around his neck, since no matter how well he did he was never going to shake the people saying we should have drafted Aaron Donald instead. this includes myself

When is the last time the Browns were at least .500 after Week 5? It has to have been a while.

Anyway, the Lions win was predicated on the Packers melting down to a spectacular degree, but it was a win! Probably the most promising sign was that the Lions were actually able to take advantage of the short fields the defense and Crosby's Worst Day Ever gave them, scoring 14 points off GB ST fuckups and another 10 off turnovers. They certainly could have done more—far more—to put the game in the bag earlier, but ultimately they came away with the victory at home and that's what counts.

Now please be okay Agnew and Johnson :ohdear:

lol GB had nearly double the yards that Detroit did (521 to 264)

Detroit probably shouldn't have won that game but gently caress it, go Lions

Not as many yards to get when you keep starting with a short field. :smug:

In case some of you haven't heard, Kenny Golladay is good.

Really good.
