...who blares an Andrew W.K. song at their stadium? Madden 2001 was 15 years ago guys.

I was also surprised to find that since the 1970 merger, the Lions and Titans/Oilers franchise have only played 11 total times.

Matt Stafford is ELITE

He's turned it around since Jim Bob Cooter got there.

Funny to look at him like two years ago vs now.

And why does he look so much better without Megatron?

 

[SandoVOL]

Did the lions players just duck their heads at the goal line as they crossed in the kickoff? lol

Less to do with Megatron and more to do with JBC

 

[TrueOrange]

And why does he look so much better without Megatron?

No clue, responding to better coordinator/coaching for him at the position by Jim Bob Cooter? (Or maybe not dependent/focused so much on one of the several throwing options he has?)

I mean, two years ago, he was the QB who came into a game against that year's worst-defense-in-the-league 5-11 Chicago Bears and struggled, only managing to score 7 total fantasy points against them.

The difference is night and day though.

That's why I hate Jim Caldwell. You have a great offense and a key 4th down and you punt like a coward

Abdullah now headed off to the locker room.

This game is full of flags and injuries.

It's been a hard game to watch.

Very hard, come on, hold em two more downs.

 

[TrueOrange]

Very hard, come on, hold em two more downs.

Plenty of time to still score a FG with 3 timeouts though.

 

[MAD]

I feel sick

 

[TeddyYeti]

Smh

Classic Jim Caldwell

How did we let a 3-13 team come in here and win?

 

[YankeeVol]

They were 0-1...

I take that back. It looks like the Lions are going to have to wait another 4 years to get their first win over the Titans.

(Last win over the franchise was 1995.)

So fun piece of info:

If Detroit doesn't get that safety at the beginning of the game, it's instead 13-10 on the Tirans last drive.

Meaning they would have just kicked the field goal on 4th down, and this game would be going into OT at 13-13.

Lions 0-5 vs Titans :mf_surrender:

Heard from a friend that we might get Ray Rice, any truth to that?
