And that's the dagger, 0-3 Lions

 

[eznark]

We're 0-3. We're 0 and fucking 3. Where do we go from here? This season is already fucking over.

Matt Stafford is the king of taking 10+ win teams straight into the dumpster.

 

[LionPride]

 

[AngmarsKing701]

:jnc, Cowboys v Saints with no Brees and no Romo.

Too early in the season to flex I guess. That's a horrible game.

 

[WedgeX]

BOOM! CHOKE ON IT HATERS!

You're drunk.

 

[cdyhybrid]

We're 0-3. We're 0 and fucking 3. Where do we go from here? This season is already fucking over.

You go to 0-4.

 

[TheLegendary]

Peace lions.

 

[Fantomex]

We're 0-3. We're 0 and fucking 3. Where do we go from here? This season is already fucking over.

Maybe by accepting Stafford isn't a Franchise QB?

 

[mysteriousmage09]

We're 0-3. We're 0 and fucking 3. Where do we go from here? This season is already fucking over.

 

[Elfforkusu]

Well Peyton has to run to get it 30 yards. What happens in cold and wind?

Will be interesting for sure. But tbh, I think his limitations could make the elements less of an issue. Rather than this team being built around outscoring opponents, they're more of a grind-y team. And that's how you have to win in january.

If he makes it that far without being hurt, they could give the Pats a run for it. That D will be the real X factor.

 

[PhoenixDark]

Watch Stafford pad his stats on this drive with a meaningless TD.

 

[Doorman]

Fire everyone. Suck for another 3 years while we start to try and rebuild in the post-Stafford, post-Calvin Johnson era. From general manager all the way down. This team is going nowhere as currently run.

 

[ShaneB]

Sigh. Good try Lions. Broncos defence looks really good.

 

[Man God]

Lions might go 1-15/3-13

 

[grandjedi6]

We're 0-3. We're 0 and fucking 3. Where do we go from here? This season is already fucking over.

You'll be 0-5 soon enough

 

[Zaraki_Kenpachi]

Daniels the god!

 

[Bsigg12]

So Vikings next week. That should be interesting to see if we can continue to shut down the run game.

 

[chuckddd]

We're 0-3. We're 0 and fucking 3. Where do we go from here?

 

[zero_suit]

We're 0-3. We're 0 and fucking 3. Where do we go from here? This season is already fucking over.

Get destroyed at Seattle...

 

[Link]

So this must be what it's like to watch the Jets play when you're not emotionally invested in the team and cursing and pulling your hair out for three hours.

 

[Spinluck]

You can always tank and try to draft a franchise QB

That doesn't always pay off

 

[Plinko]

I had Detroit 1-4 after first five. Can't see them beating Seattle or Arizona, though.

 

[eznark]

Matt Stafford is the case study in why counting stats are meaningless.

 

[Kriken]

Matt Stafford is the king of taking 10+ win teams straight into the dumpster.

Can confirm

 

[MetalFearSolid]

We're 0-3. We're 0 and fucking 3. Where do we go from here? This season is already fucking over.

0-4. I mean the goal is 0-16 again isn't it?

 

[Kastrioti]

you blame Slay for that but refuse to blame Stafford for anything.

Simply amazing.

Stafford has been playing hurt with a depleted offensive line and all around shitty playcalling. He's not at fault. He made a few questionable throws but all QBs make those.

Joe Lombardi has to go and I think we have to trade Megatron for draft picks like Plinko said because we're not making the playoffs.

 

[ActStriker]

We're 0-3. We're 0 and fucking 3. Where do we go from here? This season is already fucking over.

Aren't you supposed to be used to this

 

[LionPride]

I had the Lions going 8-8, maybe 7-9. That 7-9 prediction is getting mighty closer.

 

[cdyhybrid]

Matt Stafford is the case study in why counting stats are meaningless.

But Matthew Stafford once threw for over 4000 yards. Did you know that?

 

[BrandonPckrfn]

Lions have to go to Seattle next week, and then Cards come to town. Brutal.

 

[RunTheBrules]

Will I ever be able to watch this team with a sense of pride? Same Ole Lions.

 

[WedgeX]

0-4. I mean the goal is 0-16 again isn't it?

They'll beat the Bears, at least.

 

[msdstc]

yeah 0-4 is inevitable Lions fans. It really looks like it's time to move on from stafford.

 

[Pepiope]

The last team to make the playoffs who started 0-3 were the 98 Bills.

92 Chargers only team to do it starting 0-4.

There is hope!

 

[WesternHeretic]

You'll be 0-5 soon enough

At least they have a chance at history. First ever franchise with two 0-16 seasons. I don't know why they wouldn't attempt to make history.

 

[Vire]

That's what you get for not tucking in your shirt ya slob.

 

[Crud]

.dead.

 

[LionPride]

They'll beat the Bears, at least.

Will they? Will They?

 

[Spinluck]

Can confirm

:jnc

Lmao Stafford isn't going to do shit without Megatron saving his ass

 

[eznark]

Woah, where do you see 7 wins?

@ Seattle
Arizona
Chicago
Vikings
@ Chiefs
@ Packers
Raiders
Eagles
Packers
@Rams
@ Saints
49ers
@ Bears

I see 4 where they will probably be favored, and all teams have stinkers so they'll probably sneak one more. 5 seems to be the ceiling,.

 

[Lion Heart]

Restore the bore.

 

[Elfforkusu]

They'll beat the Bears, at least.

I hope Lions v Bears is a TNF game. America deserves it.

 

[WesternHeretic]

Will they? Will They?

The Bears are going to try their hardest to lose.... intriguing match up.

 

[Kastrioti]

yeah 0-4 is inevitable Lions fans. It really looks like it's time to move on from stafford.

Stafford is 27 years old and is signed through 2017. He's not going anywhere fortunately. I know everyone likes to pile on him but QBs like him don't grow on trees. Plenty of fans wrote off Tony Romo at around the same age and Carson Palmer as well.

These things may unfortunately take time and play spoiler so the Vikings don't make the playoffs.

Time to start looking at mock drafts.

 

[Man God]

Oh right, they play the niners, they'll definitely get two wins then.

I'd absolutely favor the Raiders though.

 

[Narag]

that Beverly Hills Cop music

 

[squicken]

Yes! Beverly hills cop bumper music ha ha

 

[Link]

Haha, Axel F.

 

[chuckddd]

Seriously, the Lions can't move Stafford. Unless they go 0-16 and Andrew Luck falls into their lap, it's a bad move. They do need to stop trying to build around him, though. Go forward with a plan to run the ball and play defense. Stop throwing the ball 50 times a game with a second rate passer.
