The Detroit Lions have been competitive in most of their games this season. I am happy for them and I would play for Dan Campbell. As for Minshew, dare I say there will be a QB controversy if Hurts continues his sporadic play? It’s not like it hasn’t happened in Philly before. To be fair Lamar was under pressure from

Yes, by the unfathomable grace of God, the Detroit Lions (1-10) finally won a damn game.

Would they even need the charade though? Toronto load-managed Leonard openly the year they won it all.

Unless everyone in Houston’s front office is a fool, they’d play him if they thought it would improve his trade value.

It’ll be interesting to see what happens. When AD was still on the Pelicans and they were refusing to play him (so they could mega-tank for Zion) the league stepped in and forced the team to give him minutes. I guess that’s where the whole bench vs. starter argument comes in - Houston can plausibly argue that it’s

I’ve broken my small toe before; it was a bit uncomfortable but with restrictive enough footwear (combat boots) it wasn’t too bad, as long as I didn’t get it stepped on or something. On the flip side, and ingrown toenail on my big toe was really, really painful for any kind of walking and was a relief when the nail

Somewhere Jared Goff is cackling maniacally.

What is and isn’t PI? Giants fan (I know, they suck), and in the game vs the iggles, there were at least 3 PI no calls. 1 where the defender (Slay) pulled the jersey if the WR a foot off his body while the other hand was also firmly gripping the offensive player not allowing him to maneuver, and 2 where the defender

Jalen Hurts is not the answer in Philly.

Yall just gone sleep on my boy nick chubb huh.

Idk of all the stupid taunting penalties I’m fine with that one because it actually IS taunting. Hes point at dude and I believe theres another angle were hes actually talking? Like thats directed taunting at someone thats different from some dude shouting or celebrating after a great play. I dont think the point was

God Cam is so much fun and I am happy I have yet another reason to hate+laugh at the Pats.

This is the only destination that really made sense for Beckham. Seattle, GB, NE and KC would not have been good fits. Mac Jones woud’ve been a downgrade from Mayfield and Wilson/Mahomes/Rodgers spread the ball around too much for a guy who desperately needs to be the star. I still don’t think he’s gonna make much of

Hmmm. I hope Stafford has several more “Lions type” games this year for LA so I can laugh my ass off. For real, that last game was the most Lions he has looked all year.

This is actually a dumb af move. Let’s let an older “head case” receiver go who was mad he didn’t get the ball enough (Hi Desean) and bring in a younger version of him....dumb af.....

I can appreciate the going all in approach but this can also lead to problems. We need to be blunt about something Matthew Stafford hasn’t provided any indication he can handle the pressure of being a favorite. Von Miller is a Super Bowl MVP & OBJ spent time in NY preparing him for the spotlight but this is the first

I want them to have more, because as a Lions fan who’s long since resigned himself to ambivalence about his team’s suckitude I desperately want good players who escape Detroit to succeed when they go elsewhere.

this dude was mvp a few years ago when he took his team to the super bowl..  still a premier qb.

is further removed from the series of injuries that derailed his career, he’ll be able to resume his high-level play on the field and return the Panthers to relevancy.
