C-Euro posted:The answer to "can such-and-such very good college team beat such-and-such very bad pro team" is always a resounding "hell no", but I think this current Lions team is one of the most debatable cases. Like put them against something like the 2001 Miami team where half of the players ended up getting drafted, and I think The U keeps it within a couple of scores. This Lions team is just plain lacking in talent. But what about the troops? Could the troops keep pace with the Lions????

I haven't seen an Army or Navy game in ages, but I'm betting they could beat the current Lions.

The best Army game I've ever seen was this year https://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/boxscores/2021-10-23-army.html They lost to a ranked Wake Forest, 70-56, keeping up with them for most of the game instead of scoring a ton once the game was out of hand. Their QBs went a combined 10-13 for 179 yards 3TDs/1 INT while they ran the ball 70!!! times for 416 yards and 5 rushing TDs.

6 of them went to Isaiah Alston, who is listed as a WR and had no rushes. 3 went to Tyrell Robinson, who is listed as an RB and had 98 yards on 11 rushes 1 went to Brandon Walters, who is listed as an RB and had 41 yards on 4 rushes With 17 receptions Isaiah leads Army with more then double the next player, and his 367 reception yards are 150 more then the next player behind him. I was curious and checked his HS stats cause he played for Mater Dei. His High School Senior year he had 34 receptions for 634 yards and 7 TDs but Army was the only team interested in him.

When I was a kid I always wondered how could it be possible that the army college team wasn't the best one. I mean, they are all soldiers! Then I joined the army.

How does one become a fan of the Lions. You have 31 other options and they're all literally superior choices.

I was particularly loud during Jared Good attempting to overcome 1st and 30 by the power or checkdowns, and then running a draw on 3rd and the entire field. Draft position, baby!

I want someone to track how long everybody on this Lions team remains in the league after this season, I think you could count the number of guys here who would start anywhere else in the league on one hand. Kirios posted:How does one become a fan of the Lions. You have 31 other options and they're all literally superior choices. I gotta be honest, moving out of Michigan (and NFC North territory more broadly) has been good for my health because I only have one or two chances to watch the Lions each year. When my son is old enough I'm going to let him choose his own NFL fandom, forcing him to try and like the Lions feels like abuse. C-Euro fucked around with this message at 22:01 on Nov 25, 2021 |

If the Lions had all 32 first round picks in next years draft would they win 5 games next season?

If the lions played a service academy they’d somehow end up trying to run a flex bone triple option and then lose.

Why give the lions 32 draft picks when there are only 5 offensive linemen and 4 defensive linemen on the field to spend those picks on

Someone I know who is a huge Red Wings fan and loving HATES the Lions won a nice jackpot in Vegas and bet $2000 that the Lions would go 0-16 at 500 to 1 odds. That was 2008. Instant Millionaire. Now he loves the lions no he doesn't he still loving hates them and still makes that same bet every year
