Stafford and the Lions are good, Patricia is a just a dumpster fire of a NFL head coach

One of those teams that can hand 30 on you if you arent careful

Look out for a possible big game for Drake here. The lions have given up over 100 yards to RBs each weak and Aaron Jones torched them this week.

They have also given up 5 passing TDs with no interceptions thus far. Kyler could also have a big day throwing the ball.

I was wondering if the Lions D will sell out to stop the run. If so, our receivers may have an epic day. Hoping for our D to get some turnovers.

Imo..

If Golliday is back it will be the first true test for Vance this year.

Jimmy G lost both starting wrs. Terry McLaurin is a legit WR, but Haskins has a ways to go.


If anything Kyler needs to be SHARP this week. Cant have any turnovers and needs to be more accurate.

Dont want to give that team life.

This is a must win game for Detroit (already in week 3). If Lions go 0-3 they are done. Detroit is going to pay a lot of attention to what Washington did in the second half vs. the Cardinals defense. The question is, did Washington expose something or did the Cards take thier foot off the gas with a sizable lead for much of the seond half? We all know Stafford is leaps and bounds ahead of Haskins, but is this Lions team already demoralized?

I believe this game sets the tone for weather or not the Cards will truly compete for the division crown and you can aruge this game is a must win game for AZ if they want to do so. After the Detroit game, the team is on a 3 game roadie with two consecutive games on the east coast leading up to MNF vs. the Cowboys. Historically this type of road trip spells doom for the Cards. This game needs to be a springboard to a succussful road trip. Otherwise a losing record may be greeting the team upon their return to AZ for a big game vs. the Seahags on 10/25. The next 5 weeks will determine the season for this team.

I think this is a battle in the first three quarters of the game, but Kliff is still smarting from last season's opening day and will find a way to pull this out.

Cardinals 31, Lions 27.

Lions are destined for the bottom.... again.

Stafford is not a winner. He puts up stats without wins.

A A Ron and the running game blew them up yesterday. Mortgage the farm and wager on this one.

I think the Cards D issues in the 2nd half were more from the Offense trying to play games and fart around with different plays/formations, knowing they had a huge lead. Basically KK used that 3rd quarter as a pre-season game and the defense got worn out and exposed. Under normal circumstances, KK just puts the hammer down and seals the victory.
