Yay or nay?
I think with their remaining schedule (Titans, Vikings, Colts, Saints, Packers) they very well could. My gut tells me they'll pull out a win somewhere.

They have a shot at the Vikings if the William bros are suspended for 4 games.
-
I hope not...I hold no ill will for the lions...I dont know that I can root for an 0-16 for any franchise even the Pats...after last year I realize just how bad it sucks being on that path.

I don't have ill will towards the Lions but I'd love for the other three teams in the AFC east to witness the heartbreak that is 1-15 or 0-16.
Why are the williams bros. going to be suspended? -
Theyll pick up a win somewhere I think. With culpepper there now, once he gets a better grip of the playbook, and gets some timing down with the receivers, theyre going to put together a win. It'll probably be an ugly win, but theyre going to get one i think.
-
Im gonna go out and say it. 0-16. They have less talent and a harder schedule than we did last year imo. They are terrible.
The amazing thing is people are still saying Rod Marinelli is the right coach for that team. What? You cant defense that! -
they will win one game...evne though they had the NFL's worst GM, and they signed C-Pepe...I have to think they will pull out a win this year.
Come on Kevin Smith and Charles Johnson are good players, C-Pepe can still throw deep...
And 0-16 is just not something I'd wish on any fan...that is tough man...they'll win at least one game....crosses fingers..
OT, does anyone think the Lions may try and poach anyone off of our Staff? We've had one heck of a turnaround, they are sure to notice it..and if so....who? -
Do we have anyone with an expiring contract? Didnt we just sign a whole new staff?
Unless you mean for a HC spot, I dont think anyone is leaving here, and I dont see and HC candidates on this team right now. -
I don't think they go after our staff members. I could see them going after a guy like Josh McDaniels and Steve Spagnualo. Jim Schwartz may get a look around the league. He's got the Titans defense playing very well. Dark-horse candidate for a head coaching look for me is Keith Butler. Steelers LB coach. -
I wonder if they will make a run for Jason Garret and force Jerry Jones's hand?
I don't believe Schwartz would be on the list, he has been in the NFL for a long time, this is the first time his name has come up, what about one of the Ryan Brothers? -
-
Schwartz has been interviewed a few times, as recently as last season for the Redskins, Falcons and our Dolphins vacant HC job. He didn't get it but he did interview for it. He started working under Belichick in Cleveland in early nineties and has done a good job coaching up the Titans defense. Why not at least look at him?
The Ryan brothers are possibilities. I think Rex Ryan should get a shot before Rob Ryan in my opinion.
Garrett will be the HC in Dallas next year in my opinion. -
I wouldn't wish a total losing season on any team.
Well, except the pats & jests, now that would be great! -
-
They're gonna beat the Vikings at home on December 7th...mark it down.
I was always one of the people hoping someone would go 0-16...and then I experienced my team flirt with that last season and it changed my mind on it. No player, coach, fan, etc should ever have to go through that. They work too hard not to get rewarded somewhere along the way.
And on December 7th, it will happen for them -
IMO hot coaching guy will be Josh McDaniels, Pats OC. After righting the ship and getting some Ws posted, his name will be tossed around quite a bit I imagine. I can see quite a few vacancies at the end of the season.
Detroit, Cleveland, Cincinatti, Dallas, Houston, KC, Saint Louis, Oakland, San Diego, Philly.
The hot names are going to get brought out fast and furious. Its a good season to be a top coordinator. -
I have watched almost every Lions game here since I live in Michigan, and let me say that they do not have the talent we had last year. The Lions should have beaten the Bucs last week, after jumping out to a 17-0 lead, and then losing it. The Lions are a great first quarter team usually, always jumping out to leads, giving their fans false hope of wins, and then they just blow it. It's been this way for years here
However, here is the Lions remaining schedule:
vs. Titans
vs. Vikings
at. Indy
vs. New Orleans
Those are four pretty rough games to end your season with, but nonetheless here are my predictions.
Lions vs. Titans-
I think the Lions will keep this game pretty close throughout most of the game, becuase they always play good on Thanksgiving, and they will have a big crowd to support them. However, I think in the end the Titans will pull away in the fourth quarter and win, 34-21.
Lions vs. Vikings-
this game could be very critical for the Vikings becuase they are 6-6, with the Bears. The Bears/Viking play each other this Saturday, and if the vikings want to make the playoffs, they will need a win here, and I think they will get it. The Lions run defense is just awful, and I think Adrian Peterson will have a huge game. The Vikings win, 41-17.
Lions at. Indianapolis-
Another playoff team that the Lions will have to face is the Colts. the Colts will be fighting for a wild card spot, along with a number of other teams in the AFC. This game that Colts will want to come in and get a victory to help solidify their playoff chances, and I think they will. The Lions will come out and hold their own though as the Colts win, 38-28.
Lions vs. Saints-
The last game of the year. If the Lions lose they go down as the team that went 0-16, and if the Lions win the Saints go down as the team who let these lowly Lions beat them. I think option B will happen, and the Lions will go 1-15, and beat the Saints on a last second kick for Jason Hanson, the only Lion that is a familiar face year-to-year around here. Lions winn 31-28! :knucks: -
I also heard that Lane Kiffin is the front runner for the Tennessee coach vacancy. -
Detroit will beat the Colts in a few weeks.:yes: -
Since I hate the Pats, jets and bills, I do wish 0-16 on them. They can all go 0-16 for all I care. Sorry. Imagine we went 0-16 last year. We wouldn't hear th end of it.
Golden Rule. Do unto others, as they would have done unto you. Or something like that. :lol: -
I want to see it happen but I think they beat the Colts.
-
They will beat Green Bay in week 17:wink2:
-
I watched one series of the game today and my only thoughts were:
"This team will not win a game the rest of the season or even come close."
Their only chance is to get Calvin Johnson HEAVILY involved because he is about the only good thing they have going. -
-
Unfortunately, right now they have QBs who can't get the ball out quick enough under a shoddy OL. And then you have the bad defense that can't get off the field. Limits Calvin Johnson's production a lot. The fact that he's even producing is a testament to his unbelievable talent. -
The lions are beating the vikings at halftime :huh:
-
-
And looking at the Lions, their offense has more talent then their defense, they may be better off taking an Offensive minded HC over a Defensive minded one.
Their Defense is so anonymous, I can't name a single player on that unit.
The guy who comes to mind for the Lions is...Marty S... -
-
Marty S is the safer pick, and his style meshes better with the guys who will be there next season, Johnson, Smith, Furry.. -
Did they win/are they still winning?
-
MIN 17 DET 16
it could still happen -
i see jackson is in the game. what happened to Freorrote? did he get hurt or was he benched?
-
The Lions lost 20-16. they just might do it...
-
I think they WILL do it without a doubt. Unless week 17 starters are benched against them.
-
I thought they were going to make a drive at the end there and then they FUBARED it big time.
-
They always find a way to lose. I've seen games they had a nice lead and completely blew it.
