Key indicators in the last two games stand out like a bad case of herpes! In the Colt’s game it was time of possession and in the recent Viking’s game it was the lopsided ratio of the ‘running game’. In the Colt’s game, defense deficiencies set aside, you cannot reasonably expect your defense to be […]

The win over Atlanta was a display of how two struggling teams keep things interesting. Atlanta had the game as they say, ‘in the bag’ and then they gave the ball back to Detroit’s quarter back who has a history of pulling off miracles within minutes to play. Story book ending for Detroit. Atlanta was […]

The last two week have been great. The Lion’s did not lose during the ‘bye’ week and won against a terrible team last Sunday. Lion’s history is replete with multiple versions of this scenario through out our 63 years of rebuilding. At this juncture of the season it would be masochistic to even allow a […]

After last weeks’ anomaly, IE a win, our beloved Lions returned to form. Firstly, concede that New Orleans is a good team. But from there our 63rd year of rebuilding is a complete and utter bust. What you ask leads to the defeat? Consider all the stats impacting the game:time of possession, third down conversions, […]

Well, well another re-run and the specter of another year of rebuilding. In the spirit of ‘truth in writing’, I only watched the first quarter and the last futile 8 minutes of the 4th quarter. The entire viewing time was done with the TV on “mute”. The phony ‘crowd noise’ is nothing but an insult. […]

Gentle Lion’s fans, First, by happenstance, I only saw the last quarter of the game while eating dinner in a sports bar restaurant. What a way to generate severe gastrointestinal distress. As we stumble into our 63 year of rebuilding intertwined with all the ‘PC’ ‘BS’, I’ve taken the liberty of posting a new a […]

If any one deserves pity it is the faithful Detroit Lion’s fans. Recent games against the Vikings and Bucs were sordid examples of futility on display. With every season of rebuilding we’re subjected to another attempt to fit a ‘square peg’ of talent into a new/improved ’round hole’ scheme of thinking. Having watched other franchises […]

If you were not expecting much, the game with the Bears did not disappoint. Blough showed big improvements over the prior game. As evidenced by the Bears 400+ yards of offense, not so much the Lion’s defense. And the ‘ole reliable’ penalties at the most inopportune time remained entrenched as part of the game plan. […]

It was a struggle but the Detroit Lion’s came through with flying colors. Look at the game stats and you could conclude the Lions won the game. However, kicking field goals vs scoring touchdowns, shabby special teams play, usual stupid penalties and of course an inexperienced QB made it all really innovative losing to a […]

Painful but predictable is watching the Lions flail away trying to pretend they are contenders. Kudos to Driskel who showed improvement over his previous game. Beyond that comment nothing much is left to say. The statistics speak for them selves. Your defense giving up over 500 yards of offense is a ‘death wish’ in the […]
