RIP!!
One of my favorite actors. Very versatile. I told many people, he could go from a dad/grandfather like figure to an evil bad guy with a slight change of the expression on his face. He could do just about any role.
Well put, versatility is how I remember him. Hero or villain, always compelling. RIP

Soto hits a HR in his first at bat as a Mutt. Ironically he also hit a HR in his first game with the Crankees last year.

It did compromise their chances but through good/creative coaching they were pretty close to overcoming nearly historic injury levels. While we, with a couple injuries every year, cannot. I'd say it's because McD is too conservative while other high quality defensive coaches will take major aggressive risks.
Fair enough. I'm not a McD lover/apologist but I think the haters fail to acknowledge how close we were to beating the Chiefs when we fielded a defense that depended on AJ Klein to fill in. Even then, it came down to the offense not getting in the end zone.

Um yeah it had more to do with 5 total TOs on the Lions lol. Maybe the Lions defense should’ve taken the field to stop the Commanders from returning that pick six.
The Lions outgained the Commanders by 40 yards. They had more rushing yards and more passing yards. You would have expected that woeful, battered defense to have gotten the worse of those stats, right?
Did you watch the game?
So your premise remains that the injuries the Lions sustained this year had no impact on their season? If so, does the draft, free agency and depth charts even matter for any team?

I mean, you argued injuries were the Lions’ problem too, but injuries aren’t the reason Goff turned it over 4 times.
The Lions defense made the Vikings look silly in the last game of the year for the 1 seed. Despite all their injuries.
The Lions season ended because Goff was a disaster. The Bills season ended because their defense was a disaster.
So in your world the Lions giving up 45 to the Commanders had nothing to do with their injuries on defense? Um, ok.
For the record I never argued that Goff's turnovers had anything to do with the injuries. Nor did I argue that the Bills season ended because their defense was a disaster - I agree with that whole heartedly.
Not sure why you are hell bent on putting words in my mouth that never came out.

See you next year when our 3rd string 3t DT tweaks his pinky and we lose to KC putting up their best offensive performance of the year again. If only he was healthy!
Stupid reply, once again you're arguing a point I never made. Good for you. Have a nice day.

The comp is that if Goff had 4 turnovers every year vs the Commanders and lost 4 times in a row, I wouldn’t blame injuries for the loss. They could have different injuries every year and I still wouldn’t blame them.
McD’s defense playing some of the worst ball of the year every year vs KC is the comp to Goff throwing 4 picks. Every year, we are going to have at least 1 starter dinged up in the postseason, anywhere. That doesn’t mean we need to be historically awful. A lot of teams aren’t. The Bills are.
You're arguing a point I never made. Have a nice day

I don’t think their defensive injuries caused Goff to throw a pick six and get concussed. I also don’t think it caused Jameson Williams to throw the worst WR pass in NFL playoff history.
Sure, did it not help? Absolutely.
The point is that if the Lions are continually losing in the postseason and their QB is turning it over 4 times (like Goff did) in every loss, it’s going to be hard to squint and say “man it’s just the injuries huh”
Every team can claim injuries. Zay Flowers missed the divisional round, should we replay that game for Baltimore?
Its silly.
Imagine if KC lost their starting safety in the opening minutes of the 2023 divisional game. Bills would certainly have won by a ton, right?
This year? No.
This is way off. 2024 with league average QB play and we are picking top 5
You can point out individual failed plays by the Lions offense. I'll disagree that that the injuries they had didn't seriously compromise their chances of making it further than they did this year.
TBH, it's not clear to me which statement I made you disagree with. Unless you think injuries play no part whatsoever in a teams ability to win a SB - which imo is a different statement than every team that wins a SB has to overcome injuries.

If the Lions get bounced the next 3 years in a row by the Commanders, I don’t think anyone will be saying “everyone is great, it’s just the injuries.” Lol
So you don't think the Lions injuries had anything to do with how their season turned out?

I’m sure he’d get along very well with a handful of current/one former player.
I would personally rather see the Bills go 0-17, myself.
Not sure exactly what you're getting at, but on the surface this is as bad a take as the poster a few years ago who preferred Josh throwing for 300 yards over the Bills winning.

D wins championships and i don't see how anyone can even argue this anymore.........McD and Beane need to get their house in order and start producing a championship D if we ever want to see a SB.
1 hour ago, Sweats said:The injury excuse is getting old and stale........every team has injuries come playoff time, but it only seems to be a Bills problem.
Like, come on......
Beane took his swing - and missed - with an an aging Von Miller. In the games before Von's injury the defense looked formidable.
And unless you think the Lions chances of winning a SB this year wasn't seriously compromised by injuries then perhaps its just a Bills problem.

Use this AND arm yourself w/knowledge!😆🤣
The wedding ring is an interesting concept. In the past the only time I wouldn't wear it was skiing. I was worried I'd lose it in the glove and/or cuz it was cold and it would slip off. I stopped wearing it since covid when I was working from home and it seemed pointless. afaik wifey doesn't care - and I don't know and care even less whether she wears her engagement or wedding ring.

Coincidence? I think not
Why do husbands usually die before their wives? Because they want to.

Several people have mentioned Peyton Manning, so I looked it up. He hosted late March, 2007, less than two months after his first SB win, with the Colts, against the Bears.

Those were the days. Of course, I remember fat ass Lasorda jumping ip and down after Gibson’s HR and you couldn’t slide a playing card under his feet when he was jumping.Fat ass.
Go Yanks!
The best unconfirmed Lasorda story is he supposedly sent Don Rickles out to the mound to make a pitching change.

Actually I think Lorne offered a certified check for $3000 if they showed up.

I hear ya. I just don’t think he has to seek it out. It will seek him once he’s a champion.
No doubt about not having to seek it out. But Dak got more national exposure out of those Chunky commercials than I recall Josh ever getting and that was without an MVP or championship. I'm guessing Josh has already passed on opportunities.

2 of them, actually.
Also, Incognito is f'ing crazy. There's plenty of incidents with his behavior that are bats**t.
I would watch an Incognito documentary. I'm actually glad he hasn't been in the news, the last I recall was reports of unhinged behavior at a funeral home.

My store pet peeve are the robotic spill detectors at Stop 'N Shop. Not sure if they've made their way to other supermarkets but man are they annoying.
