Dude had his little hissy fit on the sidelines and he's been the worst WR in football ever since.

Didn’t you catch a ton of flack for saying RA was unhappy with Darnold acquisition when he didn’t report or something? Hmmm…. 
 

   I was told it was a great deal and and the proof was in make believe salary cap info. from “insiders”.

Yep. I caught flack for that. Flack for saying Teddy would be trash. Flack for saying Darnold would be trash. Flack for saying these OL signings would be trash. Flack for pointing out that Rhule never beat any actually good teams in college.

He's been one of the worst wideouts in the NFL this year.  Darnold isn't helping but he just looks checked out, and has for weeks.

We have the most drops of any NFL team, but Darnold has declined so steadly the last few weeks that we also have some of the most bad throw percentages.

There is one common denominator...

Robby and Sam have some sort of beef with one another, plus it seems the coaching staff didnt ask Rob about Sam at all.........Rob knew what was coming and this was the only chance he had before his numbers fell in a blackhole.... so make a fuss, dont report, etc etc Get the bag before the season, very smart move really. 

Yeah. I'm certainly gonna listen to someone with zero insider knowledge and total inability to form a decent sentence.

Robby sucked starting week 5 of last year. Dude fell off a cliff back then, never came back except to sign the contract for the big checks.

This is a badly coached, managed and built team. 

Rhule should be shown the door during the bye week. Get an early head start on coaches just like we did when we let Rivera go.

Rivera was bad, but ... nah, it got bad there too, but it took longer to get there.

    • 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.
