The story lines with Matthew Stafford and Jared Goff are pretty good but folks have been using the term "the team nobody wants to play in the playoffs" on the Rams.ย  Matthew Stafford may be older but we know how dangerous he can be when he starts finding a groove.ย  Still, their defense isn't great so we should be able to make some noise on offense.

Sounds like you guys already have a big win. Jay Glazer is reporting Sam LaPorta injury was just a hyperextension. Happy for him, the Lions and the Lions fans on that one.ย 

Hyperextensions can still lead to knee sprains that are serious, but if it's not torn ligaments then that's excellent, even if he can't play next week or after that

All true but it looked like it could have been a lot worse. Kid is from Iowa, if at all possible, he'll play next week as long as there is no structural damage.ย

I agree but Iโ€™m more concerned with long term structure than a current implication. Iโ€™d rather sign a TE, like Ertz, and let LaPorta heal before rushing him back.ย

I hope you guys beat the Cowboys.

Mostly so the Lions can get a 2nd home game, but still.

So interesting how this worked out. We go to Dallas and play against McCarthy.ย 

Stafford comes to Detroit to play you guys!ย 

NFL is fixed! LOL
