Nope. Didn't age well.

Not so much. That's why they play the games.

I think he meant winning as an overall term, not at that particular moment...its unquestionable that the lions are headed in the right direction as a franchise, or at least until their coaching staff gets raided amd they have to figure out how to pay all their players that are performing at a high level.

I think thats just it. Ben Johnson was too cute I think at times yesterday and it cost them. The WR pass play that Williams had no business throwing that led to an INT was not the right call at that moment. Campbell face was priceless after that. Both coordinators I feel are leaving. I just get the feeling this was the beginning of the end for Detroit.

I think Johnson will be hired, not sure about Glenn.

Lions turn-overs and 63 players on IR done them in.

MAJOR kudos to DQ, Daniels and that Washington team. That was a hella game they brought to Ford Field.

Yep, they had a nice window last year and this one and have zero to show for it thus far. It happens. Is the window closed or closing? Maybe. I see them as a perennial playoff participant the next 2 years for sure. My guess is they'll be formidable this upcoming season as well, but maybe you'll see a drop after that. Goff may have reached his ceiling.
