I've always wanted to be able to see Stafford with a team that had an average defense and average rushing game at the same time. Crunching all the stats, that's about what we're seeing play out. This with a tough portion of our schedule out of the way and guys getting healthy like Hand, Daniels, Hockenson and Slay. We'll see it play out, but as of now I'm still hopeful and it's October so...Originally posted by Futureshock View PostComment

There really isn't much about this schedule this year that is easy TBH.Originally posted by 3rdRGR View Post
Next 6 weeks are pretty much going to define their season. 3 division games, OAK on the road and DAL. Only the game against the G-men looks like it is in the "should win" category. All the rest are going to be a fight.
Even beyond that the "easy" games are likely going to be anything but easy:
WAS in DC (they've won just once there in 80 years - 1 and 21 overall) and they have just fired the one guy you hoped would still be in charge for that game......
DEN in Denver in December.Last edited by Fraquar; October 9, 2019, 01:12 AM.Comment

Yeah? When. We've had one or the other a couple times. Never both at once. Just asking for average there. We have always had worst in the NFL level areas whether it be JBC's rushing attacks or Chris Houston getting torched all day even though we had a good pass rush. If you've got a year for me, and I'm mistaken let me know.Comment

Define an average running back. What are the parameters you use to define an average running back.Originally posted by 3rdRGR View PostComment

Fair question. No perfect answer, but it's not so much a RB as it is a rushing attack. Our best in Stafford's time was when we had Bush and Bell together that one glorious season. I look at YPG which is a fair evaluation of the rushing impact that DC's have to prepare (or in Stafford's case did not have to prepare for). As far as the "scary" back factor, which yes again impacts what a DC will have to do against you, it's YPA. So if we were in the top half of the NFL in YPG and YPA of our top back in the same year we had a top half defense. Point me to it. We had good areas here and there over Stafford's career, but not nearly enough. See Carson Palmer's comments? The guy was in the league with him for years.Originally posted by dwt1 View PostComment

Amen 3rdRGR.. That person isn't a Lions fan. You'll never see anything positive out of him unless we're talking about GB. He loves Erin Rogers ball sack.Originally posted by Futureshock View PostF#*K OHIO!!!

Average running back? You know, like Emmitt Smith.
Just walk away, 3rd. Don't engage with the jackass. It is nothing more than an exercise in futility.

I feel you guys, not trying to feed the trolls to the detriment of the board. Just looking for a little substantial discussion I guess.Originally posted by Futureshock View PostComment
