I never expected anything different. At least there's new characters added to this circle of hell.

Can't let you suffer through this season alone.

Misery loves company my friend. 

We stick with this team no matter what.

Looks like Mr. Jackson has earned some time with the ones. I suspected that's what game 1 was about, letting these guys show that they belong.

You know who doesn't belong? David Tepper. He sucks.

The starters will need to play at least a half in game 2 however.  I would play the 3 quarters myself.

Johnson/Leota standing out is a sight for sore eyes. What a win for us if they step up their game. Good to see Barno too. 

After an evening at Golden Corral, I had an experience in the bathroom that can only be described as "Panther-esque".

We just needed 1 of these guys to turn a corner and we may luck out with more production than I hoped for.

Double-decker sandwich:

I could see this team's run defense being a strong suit in a lot of games.

Subpar pass protection, bad snaps and OL penalties are going to ruin a lot of drives.

The all-white uniforms still look cool.

I am cautious, but very optimistic about one of the rookies on this team.

Bryce is likable but just not quite good enough to be a franchise QB.

Dave Canales' upbeat, youthful energy is a welcome change from stoic Reich, folded-arms Wilks and A Slob to Be Named Later.

    • I was watching a YouTube and it was said that scout and GM insider types were saying the NIL had killed rounds 4-7. I don’t know that I buy it, seems like it might for a year or maybe two but then those guys have to move on.  NCAA is apparently about to give 5 years of eligibility. It is gonna skew those entrants older maybe.   
    • 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.
