Oh poo we're in trouble.  Eli and Coughlin have been in this spot before.

I mean if you think about it, every single team they have ever beaten had not lost yet on that exact day so every team they have every beaten was practically undefeated!

man, i fully believe in this team going 19-0, but the pressure is rising. this feels like the Cowboys game where the constant refrain from the media is making me feel like there is something extra lurking behind this game. i hope CAP can run today and that Fozzy is fighting for extra yards. my main concern is those two keeping the ball safe. they're coming in without many game time hits and the Giants apparently have been good at takeaways. i also feel like they're gonna put Josh in tough spots like Odell in the slot and too much is going to be made of covering Odell, that others will be wide open. we need to play our game and not feel like we need to compensate for any one area too much. hopefully the D-line and LBs can ball today and some early throws get us comfortable.

Joe Buck and Troy Aikman..Jesus..why do we get the short straw on these Jokers calling our games..

Aikman already said in pregame show that the Giants will win..get ready to hear nothing but superlatives about a struggling NY Giants team..

We do get Erin Andrews, so that's a plus....

    • Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that. 
    • I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
