Gonna have to cling on to this 1 goal lead. Shut it down boys

Interesting - sounds like the type of player that doesn't fit rods system. Hopefully a change of scenery/scheme can change that

Not random - just sucks when we control TOA and SOG in most games and struggle to put the puck in the net way more than those stats would indicate

We struggle to score in way too many games...

I think going beyond the price it would cost for his contract, I would argue a better question to ask is will we be a contender by the end of his contract. I am pretty confident in saying we will be a bottom 5 team the next 2 seasons with how void of talent we are (with or without Burns). If we aren't relevant until the last year of his deal, will that deal truly have been worth it? I am in the house of we just need to tear everything down and start anew. I am fine with building the defense around Brown, Luvu (seems like he wants to still be here and hopefully a team friendly contract), and Horn (I still say to extend Horn now while we can get him cheap and hope the injury bugaboo the last 2 seasons goes away) while trying to figure out some type of offensive identify. Try and get rid of any bad cap contracts (off to a good start with that), build our cap up, and look at making our splash signings when we get a new QB.

Yep... Unfortunately we need to nail most of our picks the next 2 drafts to fight our way back to mediocrity. We will win maybe 4 games next year, only because being bad lady season lets us face a lot of other turd teams

I can definitely get behind this. I still think Aho and Jarvis play very well together. Haven't watched much, but how often have we run svech, aho, and Jarvis together? We definitely need another top 6 forward though. Then either sit Drury or KK

That is excellent news!!! That hopefully means there will be a few less road fans at our home games, because we sure as hell know nobody is paying money to see our dumpster fire of a team

Not necessarily dominating us, moreso they always seem to win against us. I could be wrong though

Seems like the stars just own us

If a team wants to give us a 1st, 3rd, and an above average player, I'll be giddy. I just have to imagine teams realize he is a big minus in the run game and even when he does win his pass rush battle, misses the sack on the QB half of the time. I hope I'm wrong and teams give us a ton for him, but I assume other teams don't have fitterer as their GM...

Not buying it. Honestly, if teams are offering a first for him, I have to imagine our front office would accept that in a heartbeat. Our front office knows he is not part of the future and want to get rid of him as soon as possible. I honestly think they would say yes to the first team that offered them a first rounder. I think a 2nd rounder from a top tier team is the best we can get, so I assume a pick between 50-60

There is no way in hell the Lions are giving up a 1st, day 3 pick, and Williams for Burns. Can't imagine there is a team stupid enough to offer anything similar to that trade also. I honestly don't think any team would offer us a 1st round pick now for Burns. If Sweat, who is a significantly better DE/OLB, was gotten for a 2nd, I think a 2nd is probably the best we will get for Burns now.

Depending on how Jordan Travis has healed from his injury, wouldn't mind taking him in round 5 or later. Granted, I am an FSU fan and have bias

Fatt Fhule... The joke that keeps on being pathetically hilarious...

I don't know... With Tepper's short leash, if we are like 1-10 again to start the season with Young looking as terrible as last year, I can see Tepper firing them both because of his hubris and not accepting the fact that Young is a bust. Tepper would rather fire everybody else in the organization rather than admit he was wrong in trusting a stupid test in thinking that Bryce was the best QB in the class.

Hookers and blow

Honestly, I disagree a lot. We can very much afford to lose burns because we are beginning a pretty long rebuild. There is no way I am paying him the 30 million per year he wants to be an above average pass rusher that can't play the run. I won't argue that he has no other talented pass rushers around him, but he isn't in the top end elite category that would command the money he wants. Honestly, I'm not sure any team pays him that

Yep, give Purdy the poo weapons Cam had with god awful Mike Shula calling plays and lets see how great Purdy would be then... I'll give Purdy credit - he is making the most of the luxury he has. But the dude has a top 5 oline, probably #1 weapons, a top 10 defense, and an offensive genius for a HC. I think most QBs could be put into that situation and thrive.

Nope, but the Lions win the game if Dan Campbell knew what a FG was

Obviously we lost the trade. But... having CMC here wouldn't have made much sense for us. We knew we had a long rebuild ahead of us (well, everybody except our retard owner) and CMC would have been on his last legs by the time we were relevant again. I still wish we had gotten a 1st for him instead of trading him for day 2 picks to a team we knew was going to be top 5-10

Their defense is solid. They have been one of the best run defenses in the NFL this year and have made most teams they have played one dimensional. I won't argue that their pass D is absolutely awful

After the debacle of a coaching job Dan Campbell did today, the Lions should seriously consider firing him and hiring Ben Johnson as HC

We badly need Bryce to be Pickles 2.0 and tank us to the #1 pick
