Are the Lions "back"

Now as for the Lions, If they drop this next game against the Bears, the season is pretty much over. I'm mostly concerned with Cutler disecting our defensive backfield, and special teams giving up easy TD's for a third straight game. I'm concerned about our underachieving defensive line, not getting pressure on the QB and helping our weak DB's. If Best is able to play, that will be a huge bonus, with his blazing speed, he is a threat to break a long play every time he touches the ball, and according to the article at M-Live, he is in the best physical condition of his life. I'm not impressed with Leshoure at all, on the field and off. Of course you all know my feelings on him. I couldn't agree more! Aha! we agree on this at least!

It's really sad how poorly all three parts of the game have played for the Lions in the first 4 games. Outside of a little burst of offense in the Titans game the offense, defense and STs have all underachieved. I'm not sure at this point the Lions have quality starters at any offense line position, 2 LB positions (surprise player the past two weeks has been Levy), or three of the four defensive back positions.

I will say this...for those of you Delmas fans, we will get to see if you are right and he will be a difference maker of if I am right and he is really just a mediocre safety who struggles to stay on the field. Will the defense suddenly improve as many have claimed just by getting Delmas back making the whole defense better? I hope so but not holding my breath.

Let's get back to talking some football, but if you are feeling like I am I have such a bad taste in my mouth from the Lions' 3 losses, that I don't think this season is even remotely salvageable. And, really, I couldn't be more disinterested in the rest of the season. Have a nice Christmas!

I don't blame you for not wanting to talk politics ! Pretty hard to defend the path our president has literally forced us down this past 3.75 years. You just had to get one last "jab" in didn't you, Snooker! One last lie you and your Republican friends tell withouth regard to FACTS! You know darn well that the only reason I don't want to discuss politics with the likes of you is because of your extreme conservative beliefs that it's either "My way or the highway!" There is not one ounce of co-operation in the philosophy of the Republican Party as it stands today. I DO NOT believe ONE G. D. word you have to say on this subject...so drop it, Snooker. I have had it!

Really sad Sharon. You are the one that claimed republicans were blocking legislation that would help Military families with their health care! Total misrepresentation of fact! When I post 5 consecutive articles to the contrary you say you don't believe a word I say? In fact it has been Obama that is driving up the cost of healthcare to our vets. Those are not my words, they are facts for you to see! Unfortunately, your arguements have been 99.9% rhetoric, and not followed up with information supporting your position and beliefs. I will not stand by and be silent when rhetoric and misinformation are so easily spewed. You respond, I will respond again, that simple.
