I was just curious if you had seen the score lately in our FF league.....
by KDawg on Sep 13, 2009 3:59 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
You only have 4 guys playing right now though.....
I think I have 6 playing…..
Reggie Wayne has helped me a lot too, and Matt Ryan is having a good game.

To be honest
If you told me last week that the score by the 4th quarter was 38-27, I wouldn’t be too disappointed. Better than 45-7.

Man, this reminds me of Tecmo Super Bowl. Easy offense the first 5 or so weeks. Then it gets harder.
To hell with moral victories—but at least this game has been interesting. Don’t remember the return game mattering since EDDIE.

My prediction:

It will come down to a late FG. I think it could easily go the other way too…..if we control the time of possession.

why do our guys keep sprinting at brees like they're gonna run play action?
they’re killing the clock

I'm glad we made it competitive... at times
This is a performance to build off of and we probably won’t face a better offense this year

Also, Staff will only gain experience and poise from here
by WestsideLionsFan on Sep 13, 2009 4:29 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
we'll see about that.
it depends on how strong he is and how he stands up to a performance like this and the reception he gets in detroit
by sahaider on Sep 13, 2009 4:30 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
And he looked more poised
Until we started asking him to win the game for us. Too much for a kid making his first start.

They may be true
If we can give him some semblance of blocking next week. Curious to see what the Williams Wall will look like against our line if they play the same way next week.

Good point
There is some positives to move forward with.

Quick question
Didn’t Foote and Peterson say that the D played vanilla during the pre-season and that there was more to it?
Ummmm…. Was there?

Run to Bell, stopped behind the line. 3rd and goal.

Stafford...27.4 QB Rating
From my point of view…he’s lost confidence as the game wore on…being down in a big hole doesn’t help.

Effort was there
And we showed flashes, that should convert into a couple of wins this season.

Get used to it folks
Part of the growing pains of a team that’s had 60% personnel turnover.
Gotta give the kid time to learn, the only way you learn is by making mistakes and correcting him.
BTW officiating was AWFUL

True

by Hyperion Ecta on Sep 13, 2009 4:36 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Agreed
But we need to work on our red zone offense and capitalizing on turnovers…..
by KDawg on Sep 13, 2009 4:37 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
That game would have been close
And if we didn’t win, it would have looked a lot more respectable if we had capitalized on turnovers.

Not only that
But if our running game had shown up in LA it would have been nice.

Nah
I think he’s thinking something like “Don’t they realize the preseason is over?”

Thoughts
> Little to no Pettigrew, he would’ve helped out Staff alot because he’s a big target. Kind of like a security blanket.
> The Secondary, wow just wow. Buchanon can’t come back quick enough
> Calvin didn’t get the ball enough. They tried to throw to him, but most didn’t connect. That needs to change. On a team with little talent, you need to take advantage your advantages.
> Kevin Smith didn’t have the game we needed him to have.
> Refs are garbage, all of them
> Yes, Drew Brees really is that good
> Our Run defense wasn’t all that terrible at first, then we let Mike Bell look like Steven Jackson
> There’s gonna be alot of growing pains with Staff
> Damn losing really makes you hungry.

I was trying to distribute the Kool-Aid freely before the game this week.....
I really believed that the Lions could win this game…..sorry if my optimism got anyone else’s hopes up….what a let down…..
by KDawg on Sep 13, 2009 4:45 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
I gotta say, it did seem strange
But I didn’t have high hopes for the game, I always thought we would lose, it just wasn’t a good matchup. However, I think we did a solid job, we were competitive and we showed that we could score points and cause turnovers.
