Awful pick from Goff there. Yikes.

Awful pick from Goff there. Yikes.

That's "Outdoor on the grass road favorite Goff" to you. I suspect we're going to have some ugly QB play tonight between these two.

Is the Amazon Prime stream a mess for anyone else? Picture pixilated and breaks up periodically.

 

[Mugsy's Jock]

Nice series, Douglas.

better now but was terrible

Classy Packer fan pouring a drink over the fans celebrating with St. Brown.

 

[JCizzle]

96 is a big boy

 

[HomeRunBaker]

Packer defense pretty nonexistent. Not even competing on the TD run.

 

[Justthetippett]

Detroit's Oline travels pretty well.

 

[CoffeeNerdness]

Perhaps getting Aaron Jones involved would help.

 

[JCizzle]

I'm so conditioned to think that Goff is atrocious by listening to NFL media folks, but he seems to be actually kinda decent or maybe even pretty good?

 

[Mugsy's Jock]

Jordan Love… woof!

 

[HomeRunBaker]

Jordan "3 and out" Love doing his thing tonight.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

These aren't your fathers, grandfathers, or great-grandfathers Lions.

 

[azsoxpatsfan]

I have work league softball and completely forgot about TNF. This will be the first game I miss in awhile

 

[Justthetippett]

Ben Johnson is going to be able to demand a blank check from someone after this season.

 

[CoffeeNerdness]

LaPorta looking like the best bet to take the torch from Kelce whenever that happens.

When’s the last time a rookie TE was actually good? He’s super impressive

 

[tims4wins]

To me he’s kind of what Mac could be with some better line play / skill talent

 

[HomeRunBaker]

Jordan "3 and out" Love doing his thing tonight.

Well he didn't 3 and out!!

 

[8slim]

Damnnnnn. This ain’t competitive.

 

[azsoxpatsfan]

Lions have more points than the Pats have scored in any game this year

 

[BigSoxFan]

Love looks awful so let’s not run the ball or anything

 

[azsoxpatsfan]

0 rating watch for Love

 

[JCizzle]

Packers are quite lucky that Carr got hurt because this team does not look good at all.

 

[Cellar-Door]

I think a lot of NFL writers think he's pretty good in the right situation. He's horrendous under pressure, but DET has a good line and when he's not pressured he has a good arm and makes mostly good throws.

 

[Cellar-Door]

Packers are quite lucky that Carr got hurt because this team does not look good at all.

Sam Monson had a stat this week that Jordan Love has had 31.5% of his throws this year deemed uncatchable, by far most in the league. Lot of things he does pretty well but he sprays the ball all over the place.

 

[BigSoxFan]

Jordan Love is making me appreciate Mac Jones a lot more.

 

[Gash Prex]

Can’t wait to hear more about Love being the next Aaron Rodgers

He is currently far too inaccurate and makes bad reads. He might be able to use his big arm to make some plays but it’s going to be very inconsistent

 

[Justthetippett]

Detroit's 2023 draft was unbelievably good.

 

[BusRaker]

Green Bay needs to learn the screen pass

This is a good ol' fashioned pole-axing.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Lions must be heavy favorites for the division title at sportsbooks now

 

[CoffeeNerdness]

Love may have his accuracy issues but shitting on him when his line is giving him maybe one second before the pressure arrives is ludicrous.

 

[Cellar-Door]

Lions must be heavy favorites for the division title at sportsbooks now

Already were, pre-season they were +145 (MIN 2nd at +310), now they're between -105 and +110 depending where you look

 

[Gash Prex]

Love may have his accuracy issues but shitting on him when his line is giving him maybe one second before the pressure arrives is ludicrous.

The pressure is clearly a big issue…but he is 6/15 for 50 yards

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Makes sense given where each team was at. Now the Packers look meh, the Vikings are already 0-3. It's pretty cleared up. I guess by heavy favorite I mean over 50%, which a minus line is.

 

[CoffeeNerdness]

I'm surprised it's that much. The Lions DL just dominated the half.

Don't look for a miracle comeback this week for the boys in green.

 

[Dollar]

Detroit's 2023 draft was unbelievably good.

No doubt about it. And what a great trade that was...

Rams receive:
QB Matthew Stafford

Lions Receive:
QB Jared Goff
CB Ifeatu Melifonwu (2021 3rd-round pick)
WR Jameson Williams (2022 1st-round pick)
DL Josh Paschal (2022 2nd-round pick)
RB Jahmyr Gibbs (2023 1st-round pick)
TE Sam LaPorta (2023 2nd-round pick)
DT Brodric Martin (2023 3rd-round pick)

edit: I guess the above list is a simplified version of the outcome after some other trades, not the direct one-for-one trade results.

Has to be one of the most win/win trades in NFL history. Rams got a SB out of it and Lions are thrilled

 

[Dollar]

I've only been kind of watching and I've already seen Aaron Jones take 5 HUGE hits. He is not having an easy night tonight.

And the Lions defense hits HARD.

 

[shawnrbu]

Why would you ever punt with 12 on the play clock up 27-11? Run it down under 5 seconds.

 

[shawnrbu]

And it costs Detroit big time.

 

[Nator]

That was horse shit. They didn't get that off before the quarter ended. Is there any way that can be challenged?

 

[DanoooME]

Hell, I could run through some of these holes.
