The Packers aren't that great and there is always hope. I'd go to the game but I'd rather eat turkey.

Browns Lions

Just saw the highlights on NFL network. That was a real cheap shot on Stafford. The guy will be fined. No need to bury the QB and bounce him into the turf.

What? Lions win? ESPN just showed they lost as time expired.

At least my friend that is a Browns fan that went to the game is happy. go Lions! What are they going to do with the number 1 pick this year?

lions are pitching a shutout

Just saw the score. Sounds like a couple of superbowl teams. Or maybe neither one has a defense.

Only 7,000 tickets left for sellout

You'd think that two of the oldest NFL franchises within 200 miles of each other would always play to a full house. Of course if they are the leagues two worst teams that might make a difference. But who are the 50,000 fools already with tickets?

At this point it won't hurt a thing to clean house and start over. I might keep one or two players but that's it.

I have some Browns friends that are season ticket holders that plan on making the trip to Detroit.

Rex Ryan Defense

$tafford (that's for Neil) is going to struggle against the Browns. If the Lions win it will be on mistakes the Browns offense makes. This game is going to be FG's. Neither team has an offense.

Brown Dogs!

I watched last night Neil. I am pretty sure the Browns offense is much worse than the Lions. They have no talent. At this point I'd say the QB is about even. The Browns defense played very well but the Ravens offense isn't that great this year. Placco doesn't have the magic touch like he had last year. The Lions should win this one unless they self-destruct. A FG is going to win this game.

Pick the best 5 lineman in the NFL and plug them in at Detroit and see if they win. My guess is they won't. They have 1 receiver, hurt and zero talent on defense. Even the kicker is beginning to miss chip shots.

Lions

Your stats don't mean anything. Of course the QB is going to get hit if he stands all day looking for his only receiver (who happens to hurt) to get open and has no running back picking up anything. It's not all the O line. Yeah, could they use some new talent. Sure, but they have bigger problems than the O line.

Lions

I keep reading on here about how the Offensive line sucks and needs to be upgraded. I don't know what people are watching but the O line seems to be the least of the Lions worrys. Yeah, they aren't the Pats where they plug in a tackle nobody heard of and he flattens one of the best of the Colts defensive lineman play after play. The Lions need a defense and a running game. The O-line and QB are all they have. And Johnson can't do it all by himself. Granted I haven't watched a lot this year but I haven't seen anything that leads me to critize the O line every 10 minutes.

The race will be on soon and I won't have to watch the Lions implode in the 2nd half.

You aren't missing anything. These teams are as bad as the Lions.
