Louis Friend Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Who would have thought preseason that this game in December would be so important to both teams. Any predictions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Guy Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Quinnen Williams left the game today with an ankle and didn't return. IF he's out that a big loss for their defense. I think you guys can beat them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't wish injury on any player or opponent, but I think he should sit out just to be safe moving forward. 😂 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's a major part in this game if he can't go. Also, Mike White won't be the quarterback next week. He was taken to the hospital after the beating he took in the game today. You likely get Flacco and he's a statue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louis Friend Posted December 12, 2022 Author Share Posted December 12, 2022 Quote 6. Commanders (7-5-1) 7. Giants (7-5-1) OUTSIDE LOOKING IN 8. Seahawks (7-6) 9. Lions (6-7) * Holds Tiebreaker over Commanders and Giants but not Seahawks 49ers @ Seahawks and Giants @ Commanders this week. Lions need to take care of business, but it could be another big week for their playoff hopes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just posted how we can win the NFC North haha... it's wild to think that it's not completely impossible. Improbable... the Vikings would absolutely need to collapse... but possible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Improbable... the Vikings would absolutely need to collapse... but possible. The beginning of the season, I kind of snickered at those who said 10 wins (although against my better judgement I predicted 9 wins I think). Now here we are with a very real possibility of getting there. I'm still waiting for that SOL let down. The thing about this current run I like, we've gone out and won in different ways. We are getting that experience with a few wins I felt like we should get and did (which is not typical of SOL), beat GB in an ugly game (not typical of SOL); got a road win against a quality opponent at the time aginast NYG (which is not typical of SOL); stomped a team I felt we should of beat (not SOL). But I don't think these last 4 games are going to be easy by any means. We have to win 3 of 4 on the road. The one at home is with a very mobile qb which we struggle with. This is going to really show me what this team is made of and we are capable of turning the corner. I would be thrilled ending the last 4 games with a .500 record. It would be disappointing not making the playoffs, but I don't think any of us thought we would be there anyways. Luckily we are hot right now, but I'm waiting for that goose egg at the wrong time which is characteristic of the SOL. With all this being said, this is the most excited I have been about this team and its future since probably the 90s. I believe we are at the beginning of a new era and have finally turned the page...regardless of how the rest of the season turns out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we had Suh, Calvin and Stafford I was super excited but it always felt like we were underperforming and not developing other guys which is needed to get over the hump. This team seems to be getting better because the youth are all improving with experience and we are getting some bodies back from injury. The success of the two Holmes draft classes along with the development of UDFA's and guys from the previous regime we didnt expect to improve is super exciting going forward. Its how I felt at the beginning of the season but then the start really had me down and questioning this staff, but I am right back where I was at the start of the season excitement wise. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still have to go out and execute. But damn, breaks are starting to fall in Lions favor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
