    Detroit Lions 2023 Thread

    That Stafford trade is wild to look back on. Even if Goff was trash, the Lions still made out like bandits in that deal with what they used the picks for. The fact that they STILL have a QB they can win with is ******* wild.

    Would you bring back Babcock?

    I do wonder how Bowman would be perceived if he coached today. He was pretty hard on players too.

    How can you coach someone who doesn't make mistakes?

    Detroit Lions 2023 Thread

    Yeah despite the Lions' issues, it was nice to see them battle back to force OT. Though I did think settling for the FG at the end to tie it was very lame. People also need to realize this team is still 1-2 years away from being legit contenders. It's a very young team and the D could use another draft.

    2008/9 Fedorov would not have been a difference maker in that finals game 7. Especially at the cost of Flip. Rafalski only having one leg left was the difference. Hell, if you swap Flip for Feds the Wings may not win that 2008 cup either.

    The loss yesterday doesn't worry me. It's a very young defense, although they certainly need a couple of legit defensive tackles. In the end, before the season started, I'd imagine pretty much everyone expected a 1-1 record at this stage.

    To be fair, Kasper had to rehab his knee for most of the offseason. I'm not shocked to see him be a step behind.

    For sure. I don't think there was any ill intent by the leadership by any means. It's just when looking at it from the perspective of the young players who were uncomfortable with it, seeing their captain stick up for it in the media may have been a bummer. In the end, Babs should have ******* known better. What a clown.

    I don't think it's worth getting bent out of shape over a couple of prospect games playing behind some of the worst defense I've ever seen. As long as he shows the same type of growth in GR that he had in Toledo last season, I'd say everything is on track with him (Cossa). He's gonna struggle from time to time. What is important is that he grows and learns from it.

    What happens with the players with a letter on that roster now? They clearly stuck up for Babs despite making the young players very uncomfortable. Clearly, team leadership doesn't have their back. Of course, family men will be fine with sharing phone photos. It's gonna be all pictures of their kids and s***. But 20 year olds? C'mon man. No 20 year old is gonna be comfortable showing their cell phone pictures to their boss.

    Ahh, so there is zero growth and development in players once they reach the NHL. Got it. Development doesn't stop. Great players are always looking to grow and improve. Players develop in junior/college/AHL/overseas until they reach a point where they can produce in the NHL. From there, they continue to work on their game. This is how they become great players. I can write it in crayon for you if you still have trouble understanding.

    Imagine nerfing a player's development to polish up an old player for the trade deadline. Scott must have all the best drugs.

    Yeah, can't really blame that loss on Babs either. That Ducks roster was stacked. We didn't even have Rafalski yet. Not to mention Franzen has yet to pop off at this stage.
