Now with only three games, who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope we play the starters for a series and then put them in bubble wrap. Ugh, now that you mention it, yes.

Are you telling me Dan Campbell is hiding in my front landscaping, waiting to knee cap me?!? Great! One more thing to worry about! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsShredder83 Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 This dude looks like the dumbest hire I've seen in a really long time. He's one panini press away from Michael Scott of the NFL 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMF2006 Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 I watched the Lions pre season hype video on their Fox affiliate. Just raw raw stuff with Coach Campbell touring the River Rouge Ford plant and talking to a few workers about how tough the Lions would be. ( I think he means to watch) I am sure the Lions will not do anything dirty its pretty hard to make a team when your suspended Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truthfully, I don't think we do -- particularly not on offense. But you know the coaches want to get them some "live action" before the season.

I expect to see that league wide with some exceptions for new offenses 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can understand your concern eball, but it Could happen on the first snap of the first regular season game just as easily, and we would be equally screwed, it is what it is, this fear of injury during preseason thing is a red herring, strawman type of thing, I for one am not worried at all.

Go Bills!!! Of course. Injuries happen regardless. It just struck me this morning that this is Detroit's first live action with that meathead as HC and I fear things getting more intense than should typically happen in the first preseason game.

I’ll give you that, I would like to think that the “refs” would be keen to tamp down any excess activity to set the tone for the game, but sadly we all know how incompetent some ref groups can be… Go Bills!!!
