XL shoulda caught that but Bryce has to stop throwing behind his receivers. That’s three or so this game that won’t say are “bad throws” but he’s not helping his receivers at all throwing behind them. They’re not drops either because the ball needs to be placed in the direction of their momentum.

Maybe, but those 2017/2018 teams had randos off the street playing offensive line. 2008 offense did not have as great an offensive line. 

2024 panthers will have wr production that matches it in totality. Don’t forget that 750 yard rookie was out of the league two years later. 

2015 was carried by Cam, which again is why is said “outside of qb.”

take things in their totality. You’re only talking about fantasy football positions; I’m talking offensive line too. 

The OL is very good this year, better than we've had in forever. But as we're typing this up XL drops a ball that bounces off his helmet, lol.

missed FG's and a bad call by the refs. Sure we'll blame Bryce for that right?

Oh god please stop being so dramatic. Nobody is sending Bryce to the guillotine here. But our offense absolutely needs to improve in the red zone. And as I finish typing this we just punted again.

At this point I'll be shocked if we even score 20 points.

We have some injuries yes but we've invested a ton in this offense. 150 million in one offseason on the interior OL. 1st and 2nd round picks traded up for offensive skill players. This offensive output is unacceptable. Doesn't matter where you want to assign blame it has to change.

    • 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.
