Louis Friend Posted September 29, 2023 Author Share Posted September 29, 2023 Just now, Forge said: Every time I watch Monty I'm actually pretty impressed with him. I thought he looked great in pass pro against the chiefs Montgomery has played damn well, which is why other fans bitching about him getting touches is so annoying. It’s not like he’s playing poorly. He’s helping the Lions win and compete for their first division title in over 30 years. Lions front office nor fan base give two ****s about anyone fantasy teams. Lions have clearly defined roles for their RBs: Workhorse/goalline: Jamaal Williams/David Montgomery Space/receiver/gadget back: D’Andre Swift/Jahmyr Gibbs Anyone who expects Gibbs to get 30 carries and goal to go runs doesn’t watch enough football. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SodeeWater_Cheezburger Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 Dominant win by the Lions. At halftime, I was thinking we might possibly be witnessing another 70-Burger game tonight, but Dan Campbell called off the dogs and started running the ball more in the second half to just run the clock down. Nothing wrong with that. Great win for the Lions and their loyal fans! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cp0k2 Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 Dear lord, the way some people are personally aggrieved by the Gibbs pick is so weird. You don't like the pick? Ok, that's fine. He hasn't achieved the Hall of fame in his first four games, get the torches! He isn't scoring you fantasy points, get the pitch forks! Why isn't Detroit using him more? Because they haven't had to. Detroit didn't draft the kid for him to carry the team on his back the first four games of his career. They have him for five years and his role will change week to week as he gets better at the little things that get young RBs more playing time and as matchups dictate. Then why did they draft him at #12? Because Detroit didn't think he'd be there at #18 and they wanted him. You have an issue with the positional value? Cool. You don't like Gibbs as a player? No problem. Bringing it up ad nauseum isn't needed. Check back at the end of the season. Check back after year three then gloat if he's not panned out; hell, I'll help you cut the confetti for your back patting party. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefs_5627 Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 Actually gained some respect for LaFleur on that presser. At least he's not that "ho-hum" overly polite guy he (imo) had to be his entire tenure to appease you-know-who. It's his team now and he's owning that. Kudos 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
