Yeah, I read that in the Flint Post too. It was also reported in the Detroit Tribune. I gotta stop reading Lame Stream Media!

The Lions Fans keep telling us they will win a super bowl, finally. We gotta wake up!

Oh, wow - you read that, too? You weren't jazzed by the Mo Ibrahim UDFA signing?

Thats the joke! I'll let you in on it, since you Lions Fans must not know.

See, your fellow NFC North Fans have always laughed at the Lions. Because, well, you have sucked for over 50 years.

Never much of a glimmer of hope. So your team, through the 30+ year no playoff win drought. The never played in a super bowl thing. And the whole losing 26 games straight thing at one point. Has always been the punchline.

And now, even after all that, your insistence that 2023 will be Super Bowl or bust, makes it all even funnier!

You haven't won the division since 1993. So instead of starting small, and hoping for something like that. You think its us hating, like the Lions have EVER had anything to hate on. You all are shooting for the moon, and its hilarious to us!

Be careful. The Lions fans will quickly remind you, that the Browns have never played in a super bowl either. As if that somehow makes them suck less!

I watched the Lions do OK at the end of last season.

Then I watched them do nothing in the off season. No trades, no big signings. No nothing, except watch their leading scorer walk.

Then I watched them implode during a gambling scandal, that forced out some players and coaches.

Then I watched them get ridiculed during the draft, by reaching to take players way too early.

I watched alright. So far, it looks like this!

It's odd to hear so much chatter coming from a fan of a team that's fresh off a 3-14 season. I can barely hear you down there. :coffee:

What can Lions say about that meme that isn't true? The Browns weren't around from '96-'98...so while they haven't played in one, they're a mere 0-49, not 0-52.

While he was the "leading scorer" I think anyone with a functioning football brain knows that he wouldn't have scored that many TD's on any other team.

How many players lead the league in TD's and sign a $4M/Year contract the following year. That tells you all you need to know.

Sorry your AFC East thread was moderated by the Patriots for 20 years and now the Bills have taken ownership.

1. This is quite an unsparing assessment of the second half of the Lions season, when they went from 1-6 to finish 9-8. It was a very solid second half, derailed only by a close loss to the Bills on T'giving and laying an egg at Carolina.

2. Lol - his agent totally screwed the pooch - he could have re-signed. Anyway the backfield is upgraded with Montgomery, Gibbs, and possibly Ibrahim (the UDFA signing).

3. This is an overstatement - the two players who were "forced out" were getting cut anyway; Jamo is a loss for six weeks, which sucks, but it's not forever. There were no coaches "forced out," just a bunch of front office dipsticks who aren't exactly irreplaceable.

4. Not everyone is ridiculing the Lions - there are many reputable observers who rated what they did highly, and, as we all know this is entirely speculation pro or con.

The .gif better characterizes your analysis - shoddy!

Lol - you're badly confusing quantity for quality. Between Grid's 1985 blinders and Moldy's geriatric confused ramblings, there's not much sticking.

Lol. You didn’t step in it, you’re knee deep.
