lets go lions! this might be our year!
So after last weeks game, it is pretty obvious how screwed we will be if Goff goes down. A lot of the press is saying cut them both and spend a few bucks for a quality backup. The O line is looking pretty good, though, so maybe Goff can make it without getting too battered?
-Geoff
I hope they can take a big step up this year.
Suffering through a prolonged stretch of mediocrity sucks......trust me I know.
As a Bills season ticket holder since 2004 and a fan since the mid 70's I can feel your pain.
I think you got the right coach to get them over the hump.
Nov 24th our teams go head to head in the Turkey Bowl :)
And both backups gone. Picked up the 3rd man from San Fran it looks like.
-Geoff
Thursday night football..Game 1st game of the NFL.. anyone wanna discuss? Lol
Wow pumped up the Rams and Pad Statford and they flip flopped like a fish out of water
Everything will be different this year.:hahano:

Even I wasn't expecting that.
The Bills turn it over 4 times and still win by 3 TD's
With most of the media anointing the Bills I felt a lot of dread going into this one
With a 15-2 record the SB Champs usually win these home openers and the Bills being favored by 2.5 was a further slap in the Ewes face and bulletin board material.
Go Bills
Well, it was certainly an exciting loss! It was quite an almost come back! At this point in my lions fandom, I am just happy they are entertaining.
-Geoff
Both losses have been exciting. Any thoughts on why he went for a field goal at the end? It seemed like they were like 9 for 10 on 4th down, not sure why they didn't just try for it - making it is pretty much the win. It almost seemed like an out of character call.
-Geoff
In case anyone missed the game (probably on purpose), here is the original Hingle McCringleberry hip thrusting penalty similar to the one Jamal Williams got yesterday.

The Bills loss was just as painful they dominated them in TOP 40mins to 20 mins
Total yds ect ect
The Phins had 3 drives sustained by penalties called on failed 3rd downs these ultimately led to all their points
The Bills had one first down by penalty when the Phins jumped offside on a 3rd and 1.
Tough loss but the revenge game in late December weather in Buffalo will show the Bills are the better team.
Most pundits feel the Bills should have won and Dolphins are polishing a turd thinking they might be a better team based on this win.
The Lions aren't winning, but they are sure exciting to watch!
-Geoff
48-45 should have got the Leos the game of the week slot tonight at 8pm on NFLN instead its the Pats vs Pack
The 3pm Slot is TBD so maybe?
The Bucs vs KC is Wed at 8pm
The Bills vs Ravens gets 2 slots 1am tomorrow morning and Thursday at 3pm
Anyone heard from Stafford's wife? Or Kelly Stafford? :hitfan:
The crowd size at Ford Field today is expected to be the 2nd or 3rd biggest ever.
I bet 1/2 will be Bills Mafia
Go Bills
BTW thanks for the use of the stadium again (2014) after another gigantic winter blast in November.
We only got about 2 feet in Niagara Falls which was more than enough
The Bills are on the road again next Thursday in New England so they get a bit of cleanup time
I think the Bills are going to be in for a rude awakening at game time. What they heard from the crowd last Sunday in their favor at Ford Field is going to be nothing compared to the noise they are going to hear on offense today. Josh Allen got the win but hardly looked impressive either. I do predict a good game, though, because the Lion's are still in the learning phase of their rebuild.
But hey - don't get too cocky!
-Geoff
Well Coach Campbell said "we will bight your kneecaps off last year at his presser" and they sure played tough and fast.
The Lions are scrappy and your team is heading in the right direction.
That might have been the hardest win of the Bills 8 this year.
BTW attendance was 66,553 I think that is third all-time behind a Bears vs Lions MNF game in 2011(67,861) and SB XL (68,206)
Yes, great game! The Lion's are mastering the art of looking good losing. The look of relief on Josh Allen's face at the end of the game said it all. Detroit is the worst team that nobody in the NFL wants to play right now.
They are just so close. With 22 seconds left, 3rd and 1, with three time outs, WTF they throw a ten yard fade route to DJ Chark? There was NO reason not to run the ball there. Even if you get stuffed you force the Bills to burn a time out, and I would give them at least 50/50 on getting one yard. I think that was the point they blew it. And it was a coaching mistake again!
-Geoff
Well after starting 1-6 the Lions go 6-1 to even their record at 7 and 7.
Your only blemish was the Bills and your team took them to OT
The Lions could make the playoffs and they will be a problem for who ever they face.
Its nice to see them playing meaningful games in December.
First time in years I have actually remembered to turn the tv on in the shop or in the house to make sure I catch the games! I am happy for all the true loyals(I am not one of them) that stuck through the BS. This team is at least fun to watch now.
All aboard the bandwagon! No shame, it is tough to be a Lion's fan.
-Geoff
It's nice to see them win against good teams (with a winning record), which hasn't happened since 2008....
Congrats to the Lions on taking a big step forward in your rebuild
9 wins is a real good start and knocking the Packers out last night was a nice consolation prize.
6th pick in the draft next year! At least something good came out of LA Rams failing to beat Seattle...
-Geoff
I'm actually looking forward to the Lions season next year, for the first time in a long time. It seems like Campbell has actually changed the culture. I thought that was impossible, but here we are.
Anyone heard from the Stafford slappies?
