Potential Epic Fail

Oddly enough we are 6.5 point favorites right now. I am sad to say it but based on how I feel right now i am kind of tempted.....

I never bet on the Skins but I've been thinking about putting 20 on it.. The Lions aren't looking hot but the Rams D isn't any better than the Lions' and the Lions' O is looking better than St. Louis'

Something tells me we'll come out more intense this game, but who knows

Lions are a better offense and a team, IMO, than the Rams. We are going to have to put up points to win.

This will be an interesting game.

It is going to be horrible if we lose that game. The media will be all over it.

You are certainly looking at the possibility of the Lions being favored by 2 1/2 or so despite losing 19 straight. They have some weapons on offense too. Kevin Smith put up 83 against a very good Minnesota defense and Calvin Johnson is a top five wide receiver in the league. If Johnson ever gets matched up with D. Hall that is serious trouble. Matthew Stafford might make some mistakes, but the Redskins have trouble capitalizing on those, and he will take some shots. Despite the final score, the Skins even struggled with them last year. Never mind the media being all over it, the Warpath servers will shut down if they lose to Detroit.

You are smoking crack if you think the lions are going to be favored. No chance in hell that happens.

The Lions favored?

Alright people, take 10 deep breaths and let some oxygen get to your brain before typing this bs.

You do have to give the Lions credit for being one of the most consistent teams in the league. Let's hope that they stay consistent for one more week.

I don't expect a win, but I also don't expect a loss. I'm done predicting games in this league and anything could happen. In reality what will most likely happen is that we win a close game.

You expect a loss and find it necessary to point it out in a thread.

The Rams SUCK this year and we squeeze by with a 2 point win?

This sky has been falling since week 9 last year. All y'all need to wake the freak up!!!

Seems to me you're wasting your time following this team then.

Nice witty comeback. I think we win, but we win ugly again. The Lions show some promise with Stafford and can score TD's. Not to sure how the hell Zorn is going to make adjustments to score in the red zone since that is what the whole point the game of football is about. It is coming down to playcalling and the lack of execution by our Wr corp, with occasional screw ups by our QB. These things shouldn't need to be worked on in the third game of the season. We need to kick Detroit's ass and put up 30+ points to get back on any type of track to be a winner again. Right now we look like last in our division again.

That is really freaking me out! I just changed to that Cooley avatar yesterday after having to use a Giants helmet for the week.

I just don't see how you can say we will most likely lose to such a bad team no matter how frustrated you might be.

We could lose for sure, but most likely we are more likely to win.

we are sooo in need of a slump buster. Detroit could just be it. I agree with others though, if we lose, Zorn can probably start packing. The thing with Zorn is, be aggressive. If you're going to go down, don't go down with bullets left in the clip. I'm tired of this conservative bullshit. I almost wish we'd play an entire game without running the ball. Why not?
