      He had to blame someone, couldn't blame himself for coming up short.

          Second only to how he treated Stafford this year. That OL? It is almost criminal making him play behind those guys.
          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.

            • Are we out over our skis in ranking the Lions over the Vikings despite the four-game difference in their records? Here’s a blind comparison:

              Team A: 12th in overall DVOA (defense-adjusted value over average), seventh in offensive DVOA, fifth in offensive EPA per drive, 24th in defensive DVOA, 32nd in defensive EPA per drive, point differential of plus-2.

              Team B: 21st in overall DVOA, 18th in offensive DVOA, 17th in offensive EPA per drive, 22nd in defensive DVOA, 20th in defensive EPA per drive, point differential of minus-1.

              Team A, of course, is the Lions, who have given their fans real hope for the first time in a very long time. It seems too appropriate that one long-suffering fan base is guaranteed to have their hearts broken following this weekend’s Lions-Jets game with huge playoff implications.



              I don’t have a clue what any of those fancy acronyms stand for…..but it sounds nice and I’m rolling with it.

              • Taylor Decker, quietly one of the more under appreciated Detroit Lions players. Such a leader and quality player.



                Lions have the top story on ESPN right now on a random Wednesday. I can’t recall seeing that since the Quinn/ Patricia firing news. Lions status has moved up in this world…

                • I care about power rankings as much now as I did when the Lions were 32nd.

                  • Power rankings are a neat thing to talk about. It can give a somewhat blurry snapshot of how any given team is performing right at that moment, but yeah... they're still mostly worthless.

                    • Wow - when was the last time the Lions cracked the top 10 in power ranking in December?

                        Maybe it speaks volumes about the state of the rest of the league when a 6-7 team is in the top 10?

                        • The only thing it speaks to me is that it represents how far this team has come since Campbell and Holmes took over.

                            • Decker has his ups and downs (which includes stretches where he's among the best in the league, like now), but dude is definitely one tough mother.

                                It’s a really good article and makes me feel even better the Lions chose him.
