Monday Night Football Lions At Seahawks Discussion Thread

Trainmaster : 10/5/2015 7:53 pm
I didn't see another thread. I'll delete if a duplicate.

The Lions are going nowhere, so I hope they knock off the Seahawks. Very unlikely. The Lions seem to be a mess as the 49ers and Dolphins are.

Yeah, the Lions lost  
section125 : 10/5/2015 8:10 pm : link
Suh. How do expect them to compete.
have a feeling the lions stick around long enough to make it a game  
Tuckrule : 10/5/2015 8:28 pm : link
seahwaks 24-14
Will be interested to see how the SEA O-Line plays  
Sy'56 : 10/5/2015 8:31 pm : link
They have been pretty bad so far to be blunt. DET has a couple of solid pieces along the line so if there is one thing that could keep them in it, there it is.

Calvin Johnson vs Richard Sherman is a great matchhup to keep an eye on as well.

End of the day the SEA defense will be too suffocating for Stafford to handle but I think it could be a close one.
Seashawk fans are really excited

about a member of their non playoff baseball team raising their flag. That was odd.
I'd love for the giants to see seattle in the NFCCG  
Giants4246 : 10/5/2015 8:32 pm : link
in seattle, and absolutely kick the shit out of them 2011 GB style.
Not for nothing but damn

Seattles oline is mugging the lions. Flagrant holding on back to back Russel scrambles

Yea it was so obvious except to the refs.
I Haven't Heard Anything, But I'm Wondering  
Trainmaster : 10/5/2015 8:49 pm : link
how long a leash does Caldwell have?

Philbin's Miami team looked terrible. I doubt Caldwell is gone if they go 0-4. The Lions host the Cardinals (putting them likely at 0-5) before they host the Bears and Vikings.

I was about to say the same. They were holding before that too. Guess they aren't calling that on Seattle tonight.
WOW RUSSEL WILSON!  
glowrider : 10/5/2015 9:09 pm : link
Holy shit, what a pair of plays
Seattle O Line stinks and they traded their linemen  
Mason : 10/5/2015 9:13 pm : link
Wilson had to basically block for himself on those plays.
and my fantasy chances for this week are done  
jgambrosio : 10/5/2015 9:32 pm : link
Rawls losing carries to Jackson and Ebron likely done

Took the words right out of my mouth. Wilson always impresses. He's got quite a skill set.
I wonder at what point will QBs learn that it may not be wise  
Mason : 10/5/2015 9:40 pm : link
to take so much money so the team can't use resources to upgrade or maintain their OL.
My First Sticky!  
Trainmaster : 10/5/2015 9:41 pm : link
Rooting against Seattle in the chance the Giants end up needing a tie breaker as division winner or wild card. The Lions are very likely not going anywhere.

Caldwell stinks as a coach.
He stinks?  
AP in Halfmoon : 10/5/2015 10:14 pm : link
Based on what evaluation?
Based on the deplorable mistakes he made as Colts coach  
Mr. Bungle : 10/5/2015 10:19 pm : link
and his inability to field a productive Lions team.
Stafford is fucking brutal  
bigbluehoya : 10/5/2015 10:23 pm : link
surprised we haven't seen Detroit hit a quick screen to one of the slot WRs. Seattle has rarely shown any man coverage on the slot WRs even when they've been in trips.

They need to come up with something on 1st and 2nd down to chip away at the chains. These 3rd and 8+ are brutal against this D.
Stafford  
AP in Halfmoon : 10/5/2015 10:25 pm : link
Is leaving a lot of plays on the field
I never liked Pete Carroll  
Vanzetti : 10/5/2015 10:26 pm : link
but you have to hand it to him. 24 undrafted free agents on his SB roster of 53? That's amazing.

One dumb play away from 2 SBs in a row.
I dont see  
Glover : 10/5/2015 10:32 pm : link
an ineffective Lions team, I see the Seahawks allowing NOTHING. They are so good at home.
Swarming.

You're allowed to think he's a great coach.

I don't. I think he's a lousy head coach.

Unless you marry a supermodel, I don't see how you leave money on the table. QBs careers average four years.

Both these Olines look bad.
I didn't say he was great  
AP in Halfmoon : 10/5/2015 10:51 pm : link
I just found your comment puzzling, not s big deal.
Russell Wilson  
santacruzom : 10/5/2015 10:51 pm : link
Is one of those guys whose critics vanish for long stretches as he plays well, then reappear very loudly and boast of how they always knew he was overrated and gimmicky when he posts the obligatory bad game or two.
That's the difference tonight  
AP in Halfmoon : 10/5/2015 10:53 pm : link
Wilson > Stafford
Stafford is over rated. Nice had a few good fantasy  
LauderdaleMatty : 10/5/2015 10:54 pm : link
Football years. Doesn't make him a really great QB. Caldwell is the really over rated guy. He basically pretended he was Payton's OC. I'm sure he's a nice guy and knowledgable but right place right time.
Nice!  
timintey : 10/5/2015 10:54 pm : link
Big play
That wasn't what SEA had in mind

You mean these two fumbles he has lost that have changed the course of the game?
So here's the question....  
dep026 : 10/5/2015 10:57 pm : link
if Seattle goes 3 and out here. Detroit scores the GW TD. Did Wilson single handily lose them the game?
Speaking of over rated  
LauderdaleMatty : 10/5/2015 10:57 pm : link
Wilson looking less that awesome without Lynch tonight

AP in Halfmoon : 10/5/2015 10:58 pm : link
You don't believe Wilson is playing good football other than the fumbles, one where he had no chance. BTW, this has nothing to do with Eli.

Of course it does. 10 point lead. Driving. Fumbles. Up 10, holds the ball too long, fumbles leads directly to a TD.

Eli fumbles in the 3rd at the other teams 9 and thats the reason why they lost. I find the situations quite similar.
Wilson  
AP in Halfmoon : 10/5/2015 11:00 pm : link
Is running for his life
What the hell is that returner thinking???  
timintey : 10/5/2015 11:01 pm : link
Seriously, how brain dead are some of these players???
Why did he try and catch the punt  
Tuckrule : 10/5/2015 11:01 pm : link
Stupid
So when Wilson turns it over  
dep026 : 10/5/2015 11:01 pm : link
for a TD, hes running for his life. When Eli rolls out due to pressure and fumbles it, its because he's braindead?

Gotcha.
wilson's stats look good  
madgiantscow009 : 10/5/2015 11:01 pm : link
and he had a few plays with his feet, but he has a hard time making throws from the pocket.
Well  
AP in Halfmoon : 10/5/2015 11:02 pm : link
That's ancient history, IMO. Time to move on
Seattle has 13 points  
dep026 : 10/5/2015 11:03 pm : link
at home against one of the worst teams in the NFL who is losing guys left and right due to injuries.

Yet, Wilson is being blown like no one before.

Of course we should move on, because it would prove you wrong.

I have no idea what you're talking about. Who claimed Eli is brain dead?
I'm not big on Stafford,  
Mr. Bungle : 10/5/2015 11:06 pm : link
but that was a nice throw to Tate on 3rd down.

I'm frequently wrong. I think you've mistaken me for someone else.

I will say that Eli doesn't need a defender. I don't understand your obsession

All I did was ask a question that was similar to hotly debated topic here on BBI. I dont understand what your obsession is in defending Wilson?
2 Fourth Quarter QB Fumbles, What Is Eli ...  
Trainmaster : 10/5/2015 11:09 pm : link
... Oh, wait, that's All World Russell Wilson being careless holding onto the ball!
Carroll and Wilson are to blame if they lose this game  
jgambrosio : 10/5/2015 11:11 pm : link
Why didn't they run the ball at all? They kept passing and Wilson was getting run around back there with this line.
