Yeah, Detroit fans getting a home playoff game would be really cool for them. I’m also happy for Goff. He might not be elite, but he’s better than he gets credit for. Goff was part of McVay’s early success with the Rams. He was treated as being completely disposable, but the Lions look in better shape than the Rams. 

 

I'm always happy when QBs that are unceremoniously dumped prove that they can still play.  It's easy to cheer for guys like Goff, Gino and even Baker considering how they were used up and cast aside for the next shiny thing by their former teams.  Watching Gino is extra delightful considering what's happening to the Jets at QB now.

 

Also, if there's any group of fans that deserve to have a good run, it's Lions fans.

Al: "Green Bay wants to get the hell off the field"

 

Cranky Al is a national treasure. By the 4th quarter of these games he's downright hysterical.


I agree. And I’m not sure why I’d expect him to be different than any other 78 year old at 11pm on a Thursday night still at work. Tired, experienced, Al is the best commentator in the NFL.

I'm not sure any QB in history has had worse situations than Baker.  In six seasons hes had to deal with Hue Jackson, Freddie Kitchens, and Matt Rhule.   

 

If the Browns had any sense they would have put Stefanski in place but signed less vocal wideouts.  Putting Baker with idiots like OBJ and Landry was a no win situation.  Meanwhile he gets them to the playoffs and nearly beats the Chiefs.

 

Feel like the guy could have been a decent NFL QB but his physical limitations required the right situation.
