Official 2023-2024 Detroit Lions Thread.

Getting Smith without giving up a 4th round pick is great news.

People sleeping way too much on KC. Being unbeaten at this point is always gonna be impressive. Their defense is great and once again Mahomes has been handed a great WR. Am I confident Buffalo or Baltimore can beat them? No.

It’s not possible to truly stop Mahomes. Clearly refs are gonna let their OT jump off sides multiple times a game. They got away with it again on the game winning drive last night. Only hope is to out score him.

Hope Manu gets start over Skipper

 

[IrateMastermind]

if this ain’t a superbowl caliber team I don’t know what else we need.

The defense and special teams don’t always make it look pretty but they’re reliable AF.

Gotdamn...

If the lions don’t cut badgley and sign Jake bates they pouring jelly on themselves

They are going to sign the kicker from the Michigan panthers. Or they’d be stupid not to atleast

Another week another 60+ yarder in the lions home stadium. No excuse for him not to be a lion by September if Holmes really is the “goat”

Goff couldn’t play worse and they still found way to win.

Jamo made some difficult catches and got lit up

Nice to see James Houston have a decent game

Arnold has to clean it up. He got lucky he didn’t get flagged on Hou last 3rd down. He’s gonna cost us at some point

Eagles only team with this level of talent in NFC. But they’re terribly coached team.

 

[Piff Perkins]

Chiefs winning ugly, we’re winning ugly. I’ll take it. Just keep stacking and get the highest seed possible.

I think we got a problem on the o-line with Glasgow. He’s been very inconsistent and without Decker he looked worse. Houston was lighting us up on that side all night.

This defense deserves as much credit as Bates. Lights out performance in the second half. Played well in the first half despite constantly being put in terrible positions by Goff. I hope the double birds doesn’t hurt his rep because Branch looks like an All Pro. Elite baller.

I love the grit and discipline this team plays by but it’s kinda bittersweet. I think we’re losing both Ben Johnson and AG to head coaching jobs.

Ben and Aaron are gone, yes. However, the template for both sides of the ball have been created. No need to deviate from it.

Plus good teams lose coordinators all the time and keep going. We’ve kind of been an anomaly in terms of keeping our guys. KC has kept Spags but I’m not sure many contending teams have consistently had the same OC or DC like this.

One thing I won’t miss is Ben Johnson stinking up multiple games with bad game plans. I knew when Gibbs came out on the first drive that it would be some weird shyt. He really struggles to call short yardage, quick plays and if the o-line is struggling we’re in trouble due to that. Also no excuse to constantly fail to get your best players the ball early. St Brown is too good not to get him open early.

At least he finally unleashed Gibbs in the passing game.

I can see us losing Glenn but Johnson strikes me as a guy who doesn't want to be a HC. I think he stays

 

[Ed MOTHERFUCKING G]

aaron glenn got a game ball

"I LOVE THIS fukkIN TEAM "

 

[eastside313]

A buckeye popped the bed. Of course what else would you expect

I get the total opposite feeling. He seems like a guy that would actually end up being a better head coach than coordinator cause he knows how to lead. I think him and Campbell are kind of kindred spirits. Wouldn't be surprised if he ends up being a better head coach than Ben.

If Glenn has a good OC in mind, I agree. Especially if he goes somewhere that drafts well. I get the Saints might want an offense minded coach but I think Glenn could be good there IF there’s an understanding he needs time. That cap situation is crazy.

I thought Pachal played very well. Alim looked great. I can def see Za’Darius really setting things off. We’re gonna destroy the Jags next weekend lol.
