I think we will learn a shit-ton about the Lions this week.

The first road game against a division opponent is def a big game for us

I think we will learn a shit-ton about the Lions this week.

YEP! Especially since the Vikings just got their ass handed to them. Philly looks really good.

[Iron Lion]

Seriously? You must have been one of the very few. Stafford has always looked the part.

That was on draft day. I was a believer in Stafford after that 2nd win against the Redskins in 2010, and he of course promptly re-injured his shoulder in the next game. But going into 2011 I was super pumped.

Serious allegations against Skip that I don't know if I take seriously at all. We will see where this goes.

I wonder where his proof is. He’s never even been on the field at the same time as the OL. I wish he’d have given his sources.

Many fans were quick to argue that Armstead has not played in any games against the Lions offensive lineman. One fan pointed out that Skipper hasn’t even been on the sideline in any games against the 49ers pass rusher.

Playing devil’s advocate, those facts do not entirely disprove Armstead’s claims. NFL players talk to each other, Lions and 49ers players included. The pass rusher could have heard these allegations from other players who have played against Skipper in some capacity.

[Iron Lion]

Going just off basic human nature, Armstead is unlikely to back down from his claims no matter what. So they carry no weight going forward. If he had any specifics on it, he'd have mentioned it in his original post. He hasn't mentioned anything actually identifiable.

That Browns DE who went nuts on Steelers backup QB Rudolph at the end of the game said Rudolph said some racist stuff and that's what set him off. He made the accusation immediately. He didn't wait months or years for Rudolph to become more relevant and then mention it. Armstead is acting like this is some kind of #metoo thing.

[JGSpartan]

I assume he heard something from a teammate. It could be absolutely legit and he's a crappy person. It could be one of Armsteads teammates said it to him jokingly and he took it seriously. Considering he took it down I think it's unlikely he's going to say anything more about it unless pressed. Without more info there's not enough there to make a Judgement on it yet.

[Iron Lion]

Oh I didn't know he took it down. Already. Well that pretty much is a wrap, lol.

Lions currently have the most offensive points in the NFL. Not bad.

And a good chunk of them against a Superbowl contender

Amon-Ra named NFC offensive player of the week

Beast. 8 straight games of 8 or more receptions. St. Brown looking great (eye test) during the streak. He’s the real deal.

The Bills (72 points scored) jumped the Lions/ Chiefs (71 points scored) on MNF, but yes… Lions are basically up there.

JaMo is now ~8 months post ACL surgery. We’ll start to hear more chatter about his comeback in the next couple of weeks. 10/23/2022 vs the Cowboys earliest case scenario IMO.

[Futureshock]

I was pissed when we drafted Stafford. I was like, wtf is another Joey gonna do for an 0-16 team? We nee talent!

I wasn't. I was glad that we finally had our QB and people could move on to talking about something else. How naive was I?
