The Official 2008 Detroit Lions Thread
mannysBETTER3434 replied to timothy1997's topic in Other Sports
Wow I think I could be an NFL ref....... -
Whoever made that site should die, and I'm not even joking. This team wouldn't be that good if Carr, Miles, Schiano, or even Vince Lombardi was coaching. People should realize that. Like I've said 1,000 times if you're going to make a 180 degree change in Michigan football this might as well have been the year because it was going to be a down year regardless.
-
Like they say every true freshmen who starts equals a lose. I think OSU will slip sometime this year too because of that rule. I don't know if it will be to MSU, but someone......

I plan on using B2TV next weekend, and the other games intriguing games when I'm not at Ferris ones. Next weekend will be my first chance. I've never used it before, but heard its solid. Nice start with the sweep.

Thanks. My parents house has NHL network where I could watch it, but I'll stay at my own place tonight. I don't want to be in that household after what happened in the Big House today

No way in hell Michigan goes bowling......wow thats weird to say. Is Justin Feagin actually that bad at QB? Why not give him a shot? The guy can fly in space. I can't imagine a QB who throws worse balls then Threet, and Sheridan.
-
I can't watch this bulls***! I've never felt like this before! I've seen them get wasted by McNabb, and Banks at Iowa. I was at the App State game, and the feeling I have is worse. It's F***ing Toledo!!!! I don't care if Threet is 0 for 35. I NEVER want to see Sheridan ever again on the field even if U-M is blowing the other team out!! This is like the Lions where the punter is the best player on the team. JOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wow i thought that rant would make me feel better, and it didn't!!!!
-
WOW THREET!!!!!!!!!
-
Mitera is such a huge blow. I feel for the kid big time. How did it happen? I think they will be okay though on defensive end. Maybe it's just not meant to be for Summers to be up front. I wish I could watch a re-run of these two games. I really want to see Hogan play again. And hopefully Ferris doesn't embarrass the CCHA again tonight
-
OSU needs a coaching change IMO. When I watched Palmer play before he went to OSU I thought he was going to be the truth. Maybe he's just a late bloomer though.....
-
Wow Packer!! That would have taken me a year to figure out!!
-
The Motor City bowl would suck. U-M would probably play CMU, and get owned by Dan LeFevour.
-
You nailed everything on the head there. I'm still up in the air on the question. 6-6 won't guarantee U-M to a bowl game if Minny, and NW win a few more. If OSU/PSU both go to BCS bowls, which is still possible it will make it much easier to go bowling if they go 6-6. I've been saying I expect U-M to pull a shocker out by upsetting one of PSU, OSU, or MSU, and I've been saying they will lay one more egg which could be Toledo, or my prediction Minnesota.

I agree on drafting a big boy. I don't think Riger is a top 10 talent. He lacks size. I would guess first round, but I'm saying that without knowing what JR RB's will skip their senior year. Guys like Beanie, and Moreno could leave early. -

That is a very good point. I was just thinking are the Lions planning on hiring Millen's replacement before the season is over? I think that would be their best interest if their guy is out there, because he can evaluate the current team, and know his needs right when the season is over. -
I agree.

Agree. Bad thing is as of now there is no guy that sticks out in the draft for the No. 1 pick. If we get the No. 1 pick as of now I would trade it for more 1st rounders. Then trade Roy for another one, and we could add a lot of pieces in one year. I don't even know where to start for what they should draft. -
Lloyd Carr always had good success recruiting. The problems though is many of Carr's players don't fit RR's system. I bet if you asked RR behind closed doors there are probably 15-20 players he would never have recruited. On top of that every position is so young, especially at the skilled positions on offense, and the OL is awful. If Les Miles, or Schino was here you would still have a ton of growing pains because they would also be learning a new offense (probably very similar though to Carr's though), would still have a horrible OL, a lot of freshmen playing, and would still have Threet playing QB (I say that because I believe Mallett was leaving no matter what happened). You would still have Boren playing, and MAYBE Arrington and/or Manningham, which would have helped, but I don't know how much because of the QB. Last season before Carr retired I said this year was going to be a down year. If you're going to make such a drastic change in philosophies this might as well be the year. This happens all over...Saban was 6-6 his 1st season at Bama, Tressel 7-5, Carrol 6-6, Stoops 7-5, Rodriquez 3-8, etc. Most coaches don't get success over night
-
Ugggghhh, more growing pains..... Does Rodriquez dip the football in baby oil every time the we come out? These fumbles are getting beyond ridiculous! We may finish with more fumbles this year, then Lloyd Carr's teams had in his whole career

I heard on the radio it was a 5th round pick. I googled it, and saw a 3rd round pick, but that can't be true. My dad called me today, and was telling me about that ESPN guy on NFL live (former GM of the Titans, don't know his name). He said he was on the radio last week (The Huge Show), and I guess he said if the Lion's offered him the job he would take it. Anyone else hear this??? I thought I would see it someplace online, but didn't...... -
THANK YOU!!!! I was just going to post a thread asking about!! This is the best song ever!!

Yes very true, and I heard him say that. Thats why I hate that we didn't take a 2 year break from ND. ND is usually a power, or a well above average team, and it's risky scheduling another big time school for the future, with ND already in the fold because you could have 2 loses right off the bat. I also heard Martin talk about Georgia, Texas, and some other powers, but I'm sure the Delaware will happen over those type of teams. I would LOVE to take a short break from ND, and get a home and home with Miami, USC, or Va Tech like OSU is doing. Is ND still going to play Oklahoma even with Michigan on the schedule still? Well said.
-
Agree on both points. Whoever brought up Leo Mazzone topic I agree with also
-
I agree with that, but the reason they were not down more then 19-0 is because thats college football, which is why I love it. I said before the game Wisconsin was way overrated, but didn't know if that was enough. Wisky needs to start scheduling someone worth playing in the non conference. I know Fresno State was suppose to change that, but I never bought into that.
