There are many takes on what exactly to take away from the Lions game. There seems to be three general opinions about the game. I think the Lions are a better team than their record indicates, however the Packers demonstrated some very serious problems throughout the game.

Hm, my post got deleted. Anyway, I personally think the Lions are better than people give them credit for. However, I didn't see this game, so I don't have a strong opinion one way or the other.

Three reasons I call bullshit on this absurd statement.

One, I despise deleting posts, especially randomly.
Two, I'm the only one with the functionality to delete a post that's not a thread starter.
Three, Checking the database and the post number of this quoted post is 161944 and the one prior is 161943 which happens to be my "28 - 17" post in the game thread.

The likely scenario, you didn't submit it and thought you did, or the stupid ass lame pathetic server failed to recognize you submitted a post.

I assure you, you're post was not deleted as it was not submitted for whatever reason.

Edit, or what Shawn said lol.

Or said poster viewed his post prior to posting it... and accidentally hopped to another thread.. I know I personally have done that.. ;)

Generally I preview the post to ensure that the grammer/spelling/typo Gestapos don't get there nuts loose on one of my posts.. even though I personally hate that crap.

Anyway.. I said it before the regular season and especially after this weekend.. the Lions are rapidly erasing the hole Millen left in that franchise.. and hole is an understatement.. Billick said it best... almost criminal. Wonder how Millen took that in the studio.. lol.

I went with option #2. Sure, the Lions are improved, but they were without their starting QB and their #2 WR, and their starting RB was playing hurt. I was especially disappointed that the Packer receivers had trouble getting open in key situations against a secondary that is supposedly awful. I'm glad that they got the win, though, and the game did end on a big up note with that long drive to kill the clock.

A wins a win man wining in the nfl is harder than it looks.The lions are better and hey it was a ugly win but that last drive by are offense was great and we "won" that game idc if the lions almost beat us we got a win and we are 3-1.

KUHN! The drive the Packers put together to end the game was surprising and gave me a different kind of confidence about the offense. No doubt they'll have to put more drives like that later this season.

In another life you could make a great Bears fan! Most Packers fans, including myself are so spoiled. We can't be satisfied with a victory against the Lions, unless it is an absolute blowout. :tongue3:

But look at it this way would you have liked to lose to the lions with are bad performance or win with are bad performance?You chose.A quote from Charles Woodson:
"Any win is a good win".

Ill stand by what he says any day,and people should be grateful we won and just because we didn't play quote and quote "good" we still won and we should move on.And the lions are no push over anymore they are getting better and they are a division rival.

I'm just kidding. My cousin and Dad (Bears fans) says a win is a win every time the Bears have a cheap win. They said it twice after the Packers loses to the Bears in '07, The Lions game week one, and the loss two weeks ago. Bears fans celebrate every occasional win they get against quality teams, even if their team looked terrible in the process.

Opinion 'A" was exactly was my cousin said to me after the Packers lost to the Bears.

Mucky Tundra (20m) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

Martha Careful (1h) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.

beast (5h) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.

beast (5h) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.

Mucky Tundra (20h) : Bust it is then

Zero2Cool (22h) : Context. Sounds like Myers won't be cross-trained. C or bust.

Mucky Tundra (22h) : For now...

beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers wanted to draft Ray Lewis. Ravens stole him.

Martha Careful (6-May) : Happy 93rd Birthday to the Greatest Baseball Player of All-Time...Willie Mays

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Walter Stanely's son

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : and released CB Anthony Johnson and DL Deandre Johnson and waived/injured WR Thyrick Pitts (thigh-rick).

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.

Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”

Zero2Cool (3-May) : Jordan Love CAN sign an extension as of today. Might tak weeks/months though

TheKanataThrilla (3-May) : Packers decline 5th year option for Stokes

Mucky Tundra (3-May) : @ProFootballTalk Jaylen Warren: Steelers' special teams coach has discussed Justin Fields returning kicks.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Season officially ending tonight for Bucks ... sad face

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as out for tonight's game.

dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that

dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position

dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.

dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.

Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.

dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left

dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : That's for dang sure. Make our erratic kicker have no excuse!

dfosterf (28-Apr) : Putring it here so Mucky sees it. He was our guy!

dfosterf (28-Apr) : Bowden long snapper Wisconsin. Consensus best LS in college.

dfosterf (28-Apr) : We got Peter Bowde

dfosterf (28-Apr) : I personally interpret that as a partial tear that can be recovered from with rehab

dfosterf (28-Apr) : MLF said Kingsley Enagbare did NOT tear his ACL and did NOT require surgery, and that he is "looking good" for the 2024 season!

beast (28-Apr) : T.O. son signs with the 49ers
