  • If you are worrying about a different matchup you could have had to possibly advance, you aren't a Superbowl champ.

    • Depends on what coordinators want but feel like Davis stays, iffy stays, maybe patrick stays.

      zeitler goes, along with barnes?

      O line is aging. Decker, ragnow and glasgow are older vets.

          Maghony looks like he has starting upside which is very welcome. Going to be a very very big offseason for Manu. At least one good thing is if the Lions lose Johnson and Glenn to HC jobs then the Lions will get 2 comp picks at the end of the Round 3.

            • Decker just signed an extension.

              The thing about Davis is he had injury concerns and wasn't available.

              Iffy has been good, but another injury prone guy. He was out in the second half today as well.

                They won't get a comp pick for Johnson.

                • This team with those guys on defense was not going to the Super Bowl, even if Goff (and Glasgow) played a better game and they figured out a way to win a shootout tonight.

                  This offseason will be fascinating.

                    They would only get comp picks for Glenn if he leaves.

                    Couple of things for sure, one, we need to get younger on the offensive line, and two, we need more help on the Defense.

                    Also, whoever we select for the offensive coordinator and the defensive coordinator is going to be huge.

                    Brad and Dan have a lot to work on this offseason.

                      Davis, Patrick, and Barnes are probably priorities. Iffy and Onwuzurike if they can get them for the right price.

                      • In 1985, the Chicago Bears won 15 games, were the number 1 seed, and won the Super Bowl.

                        In 1998, the Minnesota Vikings won 15 games, were the number 1 seed, and lost the NFC Championship Game, at home.

                        In 2011, the Green Bay Packers won 15 games, were the number 1 seed, and lost in the divisional round, at home.

                        In 2024, the Detroit Lions won 15 games, were the number 1 seed, and lost in the divisional round, at home.

                        I've honestly been expecting this season to end like this for at least the last 2 years!

                        But as others have said: you cannot sustain THIS many injuries on defense and win it all. And you certainly can't be this weak defensively and win in January.

                        Great year, everybody. We go again. But the D - which was the problem last season too, of course - just has to improve. A lot. And stay healthy, somehow.

                        • How many players did they lose by friendly fire this year? I remember Hutch, Anzalone, Dorsey and Robertson at the very least.

                            Strength and peace to you, foxhopper. I really hope you’re wrong.

                            • Tough way to end the season. Sucks that the offense and Goff had to hand it over like that. Yeah, they probably weren’t ending with a SB win with that defense, but to have those turnovers compound the issues was just brutal.

                              So much for the powerful NFC North.

                              • I love the aggressiveness of the Lions, I love that they are very successful at trick plays but they have to get to the point where they can be comfortable with punting the ball and rely on their defense. I felt like they were doing that before the Hutchinson injury.

                                By the time we get to the playoff game, it was like they were back in 2021 when they were playing the Rams.
