Game 16: Vikings @ Lions Thread

[biggunsbob]

I was wrong, he did somehow get the football back.

Yeah is didn?t think he had it either. Until that second look.

Why do we have only 5 picks. How did Quinn mess that up ?

 

[biggunsbob]

So the Giants at 6-10 could make the playoffs if Washington losses lol.

griffen for a 6th. 7th gone during the draft last year i think?

Lions to lose - LOSS
Texans to win
Falcons to win - LOSS
Bengals to win - LOSS
Eagles to win
Giants to win/tie - WIN

Lions lost and Giants won.

Denver game won't matter now, Carolina game probably won't matter.

Lions currently at 7th, Texans/Eagles determine if we move up or not.

NFL East is so bad.

Cowboys trade for Griffen 6th rounder.
Diggs trade sent a 7th.

And all 4 could finish with a better record than us.

It sounded like Philly was sitting a ton of guys today.

According to wiki it was part of the Diggs trade to Seattle.

Diggs + 2021 7th for 2020 5th
2020 5th to New England for Duron Harmon and 2020 7th

2020 7th we took Jashon Cornell

We actually got the same 5th round pick back from LV in another trade and took Jason Huntley (who was eventually cut).


So all in all, we traded Diggs + 2021 7th for Duron Harmon and Jashon Cornell.

1-7 home record must be the second worst since the Lions began indoors play. They won both of their games @ home in '09.

Den and Car will pick after us with 5 wins?

Eh, nothing in sports is home/away now. It's all neutral.

Detroit SoS is .508
Carolina SoS is .528 (NO will move this higher)
Denver SoS is .563 (LV will push it down slightly)

Unless there's some mathematical miracle that I'm not aware of, both will pick after us.

I blame Quinn more than Patty by a mile and a half.

A fitting accomplishment for the rocket scientist defensive guru, another fantastic hire by this franchise.

Same...theres simply no talent on that side of the ball. You get ALL of our guys back healthy 100% and its an average at best defense that doesnt cause enough pressure and doesnt have the back half secondary that will hold up. Edge that can cause Pressure and a play making safety are huge holes.

So if Indy wins they get in cause of Miamis loss?

I believe so. But they still have a shot at division title if Titans lose and they win.
