Brandon Marshall done for the year. Broken ribs and a collapsed lung.
I think the GM, Trestman, Cutler, and Marshall are gone after the season in Chicago.

I doubt they have the balls to completely rebuild. Trestman may be gone, but that defense is a friggin joke. Offense is average enough to be where the leos are.

Trestman for sure. Cutler should be gone but they just gave him an albatross of a contract, so they may not be able to cut him. He got $54 million guaranteed back in January, so he will be there at least through next year.

That defense isn't getting any better any time soon. It's too old.

I was thinking (and it looks like it's set up this way anyhow).... I didnt like the SI forum that had a 2013 NFL season thread, and then a 2014 one. I prefer just one thread for everything NFL, and perhaps one exclusive to the Lions.
The draft too, just keep everything in this thread, and then specific Lions draft predictions and reaction can go into the Lions thread.

That works in theory but then if you go back to try and find stuff previously posted it is impossible, mega threads are positive and negative

But what's a higher priority, keeping the conversation going, or finding old posts?

I like one thread. You rarely ever have to go back and search these types of threads.

Matt Ryan is a joke. Green Bay owning the falcons. While I can kind of understand that a division winner makes the playoffs.... seems easy to stipulate that if a team wins a division without a winning record they dont host a playoff game.

Matt Ryan ruined my fantasy football season. I thought he was THE sleeper to get.

Adrian Peterson was my first round pick. Ingram is my RB Witten is my TE WRs are Antonio Brown, E. Sanders, Alshon Jeffery, and Kendal Wright.
We also have IDP, and I have LBs that rack up tackles, which helps too.
