Re: Hey SLO MO! How We Gonna Do vs Tha Lions?

Hey thanks, Mike, ... this is the best board/group out there and MudBugs are a huge bonus, .

Well, I've given it some thought, and this might be the first time since joining B&G that I might actually pick the Lions to win this one ... "might" ... jury's still out, game ain't 'til Monday ... I got time, .

I know, I know ... Lions can't win on the road, Stafford is something like 1-18 vs winning/good teams, Caldwell has all the personality/energy of a Fathead life-sized, precision-cut, vinyl wall graphic with the coaching ability to match, but just like the Saints inexplicably beat Can'tlanta, Dallas & Tampa Bay, I'm thinking Detroit might be able to take advantage of the down-cycle and win one in the Dome ... hey, they beat the Packers in Lambeau for the first time in about 30yrs, #itcouldhappen.

The resurgence of the defense (NO) after releasing RR makes me think twice and the games vs Carolina/Tampa Bay kinda' make me think the Lions are gonna' get slaughtered, but they've (Detroit) had their brief moments of clarity despite the 1-7 start. Of course, they (Lions) also don't start playing their best ball until they've been mathematically eliminated and the games are meaningless, at which point they ripped off three consecutive wins this year, .

Both teams have talented rosters, IMO, and neither one of them should have a losing record, but only one team has a history of turning itself around and winning something and that'll probably, in all likelihood, manifest itself on MNF ... only time will tell, .

This game could be a trap, Detroit's had some pretty good MNF performances under similar circumstances, just sayin' ... ya'll know the deal ... we're not so different, you and I, .

Hahaha! I was telling my fiancee about Caldwell one night while we were watching the Lions beating the crap out of someone or another only to get beat at the end (Personally, I think it has to do with how close Detroit is to Cleveland) and this is this greatest description of that man ever!

I think Caldwell's in line to be the next James Bond. He has about the same range of expression as the current 007. -Just a little side jab at Sphinctre.

Im glad I asked you this, SloMo. Your answer was most entertaining, and pretty real also.

I dont know how the lineup works, but it would be interesting to see Megatron vs. Breaux, and vs. Browner. I cannot remember ever disliking a Saints player, but Browner comes close for me.

If the Saints do not pressure Stafford, he will torch us, and he will have a career day.

If the Lions D still has the rush I remember, this is definitely a trap game for us, not that we should expect to be favored vs. anyone this year.

After Carolina, I swore I was done with football this year, but I am most intrigued by this game.

I wish the Lions better fortune in the future. Anyone who wear their colors, much like the Saints Faithful believers, deserves some victory, and has my admiration.
