    Trickalicious - I don't think it is fair that the division rivals get to play the Lions twice. The Lions NEVER get to play the Lions, let alone twice.

    • We already beat the team leading that division.

      Yeah, the Lions stink, but I don't think you realize just how BAD the NFC East is.

      • True, but the decisive factor is that the Lions ARE NOT ALLOWED to have that type of success. Even if they're better than all the other teams, as soon as actual success is near, for whatever reason ... it just won't happen

        • The Lions are not allowed success because they stink. If everyone else stank as bad as they did, they'd have a puncher's chance like anyone else.

            • Oh they could win the NFC East because winning a division with losing record would be so on brand for the Lions. The simple fact is nobody outside the Allen Park Bigtop would consider it a success and they would. You could get your 2020 Lion playoff shirt and watch them get steamrolled in the first round.

                  • Insane. Top 3-5 best NFL game this year, if not the best.

                    Tua didn’t look good. Only watched the 2nd half, but woof. Looks uncomfortable in the pocket and shaky at making intermediate throws.

                    • Man, if you guys thought the Lions threw some dumb challenge flags, you shoulda seen the one the Falcons' coach did just now.

                      The ref took about two seconds to declare the play stood, and the Chiefs scored the go ahead TD on the very next play.

                        • Brian Tannehill had a QBR rating of 85.2 in the game against the Packers, which is one of the best of the week, yet his QB rating is 40.5, one of the worst how is that posssible? I know they take running stats into play but his 3 carries for 55 yards and a td was not that outstanding. Some sportscasterss like Skip Bayless adore the stat and practically only use it to defend their cause. Is the stat really credible?

                          • QBR could in theory be a better metric because it can do what the Rating can't and that is provide context.

                            For example if a Quarterback puts a ball perfectly on the numbers and the receiver bobbles it and it gets intercepted QBR wouldn't rate the Quarterback poorly for that play while rating would. It would value a 5 yard pass differently if it was 3rd and 4 and got a first down vs 3rd and 6 and came up short.

                            So yeah the theory and the concept is really really good...However ESPN won't share their metric so it could be flawed as fuck and may not even be static year to year, game to game for all we know.

                            So take it with a grain of salt. It's trying to tell you more often than not Tannehill did all he could despite bad numbers on paper. I didn't watch so I can't speak to whether that's true.

                            • Whichever QB rating suggests Tannehill was a piece of shit last night is the more accurate rating.
                              Titans were forced to play from behind early and Tannehill was off because he didn’t have the play action game to feast off of.

                              • I hate to say it but Rodgers is the clear MVP. I’ve said for a while now he’s playing at Mahomes level - well he’s now playing above Mahomes level with an inferior cast.

                                I wonder what they do with Jordan Love. If it was me, I’d be in no hurry to move on from Aaron Rodgers.
