    I think this warrants more real reflection. The 2 yard flip to Kerryon that turned into a defensive TD because, IMHO, MS tossed that ball way too hard for someone basically running right next to him. The rookie took the high road and blamed himself, but that was on Stafford.

    All his throws are hard. Year 10 and he still doesn't have touch on his short throws.

      Its taken only 10 games to prove that out. To argue that FACT would solely be contrarian.
      Wait a minute are you saying Luck hits Ebron in the Hands Differently ? I gotta see some tape on that revolutionary efforting by Luck.

      C'mon Ebron was a stud coming out of college, was he picked to high yes, was his head mess every year in Detroit and now it really feels like the Lions messed up the TE position, however I don't think Ebron would have been as productive in Detroit as he is in Indy.

      Is the QB the reason, partially

      Is the fact the Lions had a better WR trio than Indy who were more productive yes

      Do the Lions throw the RB more yes.

      The Lions needed TE who could run block better too and Indy didn't.

      • More excuses. eBroni was supposed to be the pass catching TE and the other TE's were to be more adept at pass protection.

        Same in Indy.

        Its the reason Marlon Mack, a 4th round nobody, was averaging 5.3 ypc in 5 (4 starts) games this year before getting injured. Hes sitting at 410 rushing yards this season in only 5 games.

        I can do this all day long in dispelling the excuse making for the Lions ineptitude that starts and ends with a QB that is incapable of making due with a bunch of guys.

          ok Ebron didn't drop any balls that hit him in the hands. Got it, I will move along.

          Good for Ebron, he found a home, the fans don't boo him and he is doing well. I am ok with that.

            • Golden Tate - WR - Eagles

              Golden Tate hauled in 5-of-8 targets for 48 yards in the Eagles' Week 11 loss to the Saints.

              Tate actually led the team in targets, catches, and yards in a pitiful display from the Eagles' offense. That said, it was promising to see Tate heavily utilized after playing just 29 percent of the snaps in his debut. With his role growing, Tate will be in the FLEX conversation next week against the Giants.

              • Reiff may play and get a check from the Vikings, but he is now owned by Mack. One play he just pushed him with one hand on to his az. It was an embarrassing night for Reilly.

                  • Jaguars cut Landry Jones, sign Corey Robinson

                    The Jaguars decided to stick with starting quarterback Blake Bortles. They decided not to stick with third-string quarterback Landry Jones.

                    The team cut Jones on Monday, leaving Bortles and Cody Kessler

                      Ebron was barely on the field in Mack's 25 carry game vs OAK and was only on the field for 1/2 of the snaps in Mack's 126 yard performance vs BUF.
                      Suggesting Ebron is the catalyst to Mack's running game - that's a little out there don't you think?

                        I, in no way, pronounced that eBroni had anything to do with their rushing success. He was and is a pass catching (and dropping) TE.

                        Hence my post of, "the other TE's were to be more adept at pass protection.

                        Same in Indy."

                        Looking back at that post of mine, it should have included not only pass protection exclusivity but run blocking as well. Its obvious I meant they were not the pass catching threats at the time (DOYLE was active but dinged and eventually out).

                        My bad.

                          Name an offensive tackle that isn't OWNED by Mack? Ask Decker what he thinks of Mack.

                          KHALIL MACK was unstoppable for the Chicago Bears against the Detroit Lions on Sunday night and in one play he flattened two players before sacking Matt Stafford.

                              I look at what Ebron's doing in Indy as a moot point. Lions don't have Luck to throw those TD passes to him.
