The crowd was amazing last night, but I was a little shocked to see people leaving early. This team still is a long way off. They have some pieces to build with, but need to have a few more good drafts by Quinn to be at a championship level. People leaving early, lmao. All Detroit teams does the same shit no matter what the situation is. People talking about a championship level team and THIS team can't even compete with good teams within a shitty schedule. Good luck with that championship level BS….

Find me a person that thinks this Lions team is "Championship level"
Ridiculous strawman right there.

They're a bad team that beat up in ither bad teams. They didn't even beat all the other bad teams. I wasn't fooled about what this team was and I was calling for Caldwell's job after the first Green Bay game. I stand by that. Fire him now and let Austin coach in Seattle.
I'm along for the ride but I expected the wheels to come off.
Green Bay had pan handlers playing corner and this team couldn't threaten to score in the second half. This team hasn't played a full four quarter game all season.
They are not a championship team but with how awful the NFC is this year, if not this year to make a run and win a playoff game then when?
When it counted in the last three games they rolled over. If they would have beat the Giants and Packers they'd have a bye right now. Not because they're great but because the NFC sucks. The offense was absent in the second half of all three of those games. It was absent for all of the Giants game.

IMO 70% of head coaches in the NFL are bad head coaches. Good luck finding a "good" replacement for a bad team with mediocre talent....

He's coming back for at least next year. I'm sure you're of the belief that the Lions won't do anything ever but if your know this guy is bad and that he's not the guy to get you more than just backing into the playoffs every year then why wait? Caldwell took them to the playoffs twice in three years. This year there's no talent and the last time there was a little. Just making it in isn't good enough anymore. Now you have to win some playoff games. I don't think that's going to start this season going to Seattle.

Did you notice that they made the announcement about Caldwell prior to this playoff game in Seattle. It would be a much more difficult sell, to make this announcement coming home after getting their asses kicked out west.

I'm watching tonight but I'm not very confident about a Lions victory. There's a small chance they could make some noise here if they pull their head out of their asses but I think the spread should be -17.5 instead of -8.5.
I'm sure they'll probably keep it close like they're gonna do something and then piss it away late. That's the M.O.

Close at half time, just enough to give you some hope, then piss it all away in the second half.

Weather outlook.......daytime high 36, low 32 with 30% chance of snow showers. You know what that means for the Leo's chances! Turn out the lights, the Party's over!!!

Is a 39 degree kickoff temperature close enough to 40?
