I think it can be done. I know, one game at a time. But we can play with anyone and we should have a winning record this season.

We can beat absolutely anyone. And I see us winning the next three to be sitting at 5-5.

Who else believes it? Yea it's most likely we're going to be a young team and make mistakes and be 4-6. But I think we can make a run at 5-5 I really do.

I believe if we can make the other team think there the Redskins every week. We were pretty bad today TBH but Im happy for a win.

1st half, I agree. 2nd half was lights out though. 24 points in a half is solid. We gave up a garbage TD. Very pleased with the win. Take away the fact that our run D isn't great (and won't be all year) and we played pretty damn good, man.

Fools still talking D when the truth is:

When Newton throws a pick: Panthers = 0-5.

When we have 0 turnovers: Panthers = 2-0.

Keep singing that tune.

Someone points out we're 16th ranked defense: Huddle..."but we're 28th in scoring defense".

Huddle claims "our O just beat a 5th ranked defense": someone points out the Redskins are 30th in scoring defense.

Why? Same reason as us: turnovers.

Hypocrisy? You decide.

Stop hating on the D. We win when we don't turn over the ball. Fools. Our O lost those games. If the O would have turned over the ball twice like it normally does or like it did last week, it would have been 30-26 Redskins. Instead the Redskins did to us. Amazing how defense looks better and we win when we don't turn over the ball.

I was more talking about penalties. We kept the skins alive way longer than we should have. Our offense is firing but our defense is still out of sync.

Meaningless stat, if you watched any of those games.

They weren't turning the ball over when they were getting the ball in the redzone and constantly settling for field goals, and the defense was giving up 30.

It wasn't the turnovers themselves, it was the PLAY-CALLING.

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      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.
