What Detroit Lions fans are saying

[Jeremy Igo]

This week I visited the Detroit Lions forum and for fug sake I needed to take a shower immediately after. That place is more down on their team than anything I have ever seen including this joint in 2010. 

 

Here are a few poo nuggets that sum up the entire Lions fan base and what they are feeling at the moment. 

About the upcoming game

Quote

Did you forget a zero in that spread?? It should be Carolina -30. This lions team has completely given up on Patricia and Quin and I'm not sure I really blame them. I would be shocked if Carolina scores less than 50.

I mean, I am optimistic about this game but no where near this confident. Are the Lions this bad? 

 

Some fans blame the players...

Lol, the Lions players who have accomplished jack shit have given up on their HC. Absolutely hilarious and must be the latest in "excuses" for why they are losing. 
Sure, go ahead Mack run me the fuck over and take Stafford's head off - we'll just blame it on the HC and GM. Signed, Stafford's blind side protector.......

Reminds me of when Shula was OC here and people kept blaming the players for the awful offense. 

 

Some are wanting it just to be done with...

Is the NE in Detroit experiment officially dead?

Reminds me a bit of what Buffalo is trying to do with a Carolina experiment. 
 

But most of all Lions fans have just checked out...

The lions are going to kill it this week. Mostly kill an afternoon of my time. 

At least we can watch a players play for their contract incentives

The lions are really more like the keystone cops.

 

 

Face it, if you have been a long time Carolina Panthers fan you have felt this way a time or two. Detroit is just not in a good way right now.

As bad as the Lions might be, I am taking no team for granted this year with how Jekyll and Hyde the Panthers have been.

[Johnny Rockets]

Beating decent teams like the Pats, Packers, and Dolphins but losing to teams like the Jets, Raiders, 49ers, and Browns will drive anyone mad. 

[Joe the Show]

Lighting fast, big brown cats, lions sucking ass. . .

 

I really hope we can justify their misery, but I anticipate a close game.

[Ivan The Awesome]

Almost Kind of feel sorry for them. 

 

 

Almost.

Never underestimate the ability of this team to show up completely unmotivated and unprepared.

Panthers fans have been in their shoes many a time. Like every other Panthers game, it’s a 50/50 tossup which Panthers team decides to show up. The one that comes out the gate firing on all cylinders, or the one pooping all over the field while Ron emotionlessly stares off into the abyss

[dave-o]

You know how you have that one team that you have a soft spot for...  Thats the Lions for me....   I hope we kill em tho !!

True that we don't know for sure which team will show up but it's definitely not 50/50. Maybe 2-3 times a year in recent years we've completely poo the bed. That's like 15% if that, not 50%.

If you break it down quarter by quarter, it's definitely 50/50.

They do that this week after that embarrassing performance last week and I hope Tepper leaves Ron in Detroit

This^^ I always think "what version of the Panthers are gonna take the field today?"

Did anyone see how their coach Patricia went off on a reporter a few weeks ago for “poor posture” and not “respecting the process” ????

patricia is pushing 400 pounds and dresses like I would imagine a senior offensive line man in high school dresses. A backwards hat and a pencil behind his ear. Not to mention the kibble in his gross beard. He should not be advising anyone on how to carry themselves.

eSpn already has him on the hot seat. I’m sure he will he back in NE fetching Belicheat his coffee in a year or two.
