6 wins was my thinking as well. Without a drastic turnaround, that's gone bye-bye. But it's more about the way they are losing, in particular how awful the defense looks. I was expecting the defense to be bad, but not THIS bad, especially the DL.

The Rams under Fisher were widely mocked because they were always 7-9 or 6-10. According to Kreton's argument, that is the same as a 1 win team. They finished 4-12 in Fisher's final year. They had no 1st round pick and were right in the middle of the league in cap space. They were 11-5 in McVay's first year and Les Snead's mantra is fuck dem picks. They didn't come in and tear it down to the studs.Last edited by froot loops; October 31, 2022, 11:52 AM.

Chances are they'll screw up the next with an "opposite" coach. SO an old hard az coach that runs the players to death and treats them shitty because, you know, the players were catered to and needed to play harder.
THEN the players will take the first opportunity they have to leave. At least the good players. The terrible ones will stay around forever. Wash -Rinse-Repeat
Look, I am not happy with what we're seeing from this bunch, but, this IS azugzwangTrickalicious - 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.

6 wins were my low thought too.
And honestly, DC (and/or his staff) has cost us 2 more. So talent wise, we're slow, but still on schedule. If Holmes can't find players that can't start with a healthy injury history, he should go.
We knew they were new to this. All of us. Now everyone is acting like they aren't learning on the job. Learn from your mistakes, get better. If not, we have no choice but the disadvantageous move.Last edited by Futureshock; October 31, 2022, 11:55 AM.Trickalicious - I don't think it is fair that the division rivals get to play the Lions twice.

Look, I am not happy with what we're seeing from this bunch, but, this IS a situation. A situation in which the obligation to make a move in one's turn is a serious, often decisive, disadvantage. The alternative? Add someone that changes the chemistry and direction. If DC doesn't like it? Good-bye.

I don't agree with it being the same though.
I also don't see them being "behind" in the rebuild because of the players. The Coach and his staff's screw ups is to blame for half the losses.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.
