Nnivolcm Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 2 hours ago, flyguy1609 said: Lions placed RG T.J. Lang (neck) on injured reserve. The Lions promoted CB Mike Ford from the practice squad in the corresponding roster move. It's been an injury-plagued year for Lang, who has dealt with back and neck injuries as well as a concussion. Kenny Wiggins will play out the stretch at right guard for Detroit. Assuming the Lions bring him back for 2019, Lang will earn $8.25 million in the final year of his contract. Letting Warford walk in favor of bringing in Lang was one of BQ's bigger blunders imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimbaWho Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Lang's the man. Honestly, but gosh dang-it the injuries got to him. Bad signing yes, bad dude, no way, if healthy he'd of been really good for us but if I wasn't born with female parts i'd of been a girl... Saddens me that it went this way with Lang but Lions have to replace him and Wiggins really isn't the guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damon Harrison has been good trade for us Seems like they always do this He better just go after who they want imo. Gotta get in the top ten. atleast I would..

I have no idea what the "if I wasn't born with female parts I'd of been a girl" means... but agree with everything else. Lang seems like a great dude but he was probably signed about 2 years too late. I haven't been able to watch too many games - how has Wagner been? You could see that Reiff really enjoyed that beat down on us. Can't say that I can blame him in a way. Ebron has been the absolute biggest head scratcher for me lately. The guy would run the wrong routes and drop balls all of the time. Then he goes to Indy and is suddenly Tony Gonzalez. Not sure what that says about Ebron and more importantly what it says about the Lions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cp0k2 Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 (edited) Listening to Matt Patricia speak makes me want to punch Bob Quinn in the face. What were you thinking hiring this guy, he has zero self awareness or social skills, ugh. Oh, and ridiculously thin skin.

diehardlionfan Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Two more years of watching the Belicheck coaching tree before the next flavour of the month. What is there that can be said about the Lions that hasn’t been said before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is there that can be said about the Lions that hasn’t been said before? I think literally the only thing up for debate is who is the worst franchise in the NFL/sports the Lions/Browns/Coyotes/Magic/Kings/NYK/SDP/Miami Marlins... Idk prolly toss a couple more names but wow bad company... bad bad company. I think we can go that far. I mean really I'm almost to the point as long as this ownership is in-tacked they'll never, ever, ever get enough of the right people here at the same time, player, coach, and front office wise to get the Lions anywhere. They've ruined generational talent, and good players that have been drafted likely rotted here just cause of a factor of all three things I mentioned above. I really should stop posting even lol, I mean I like talking football but truly it's a waste of time, if it wasn't a leisure activity while I'm checking email, fantasy football, surfing amazon/facebook, whatever, I doubt i'd be around. I used to do mocks and stuff but to be honest I don't even care about that, except the draft, until a whole know regime is in. But as far as who the Lions sign, what they do, who they draft where? Doesn't matter cause they'll blow it. I don't blame Lions fans that used to post and have left the site because... yeah.

While the Marlins are a franchise that does thing differently at least they’ve been successful in recent memory. For me it’s between the Lions, Browns, and Clippers. I didn’t think it would ever happen but I’m actually losing interest in football. Every Sunday I watch or attend a game and the losing is just to much. Losses are one thing but most teams manage to find success at some point. There simply isn’t anything positive about this team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're pretty confrontational and tough on him, sure, but that doesn't mean that he needs to be an *******. I'm about done with Quinn and Patricia both. I don't have any confidence in what they are doing. It's time for Quinn to start getting results, which is especially laughable when you consider what 's happening this year. He made it clear that Caldwell and going 9-7 wasn't good enough, and now we are in the dumpster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, he made it clear he thought the team was better than 9-7. Ooops, I guess he missed on that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
