Can't win football games when you make stupid mistakes like that. Could have EASILY beat the Giants with the momentum and drives we had in the first half. Red Zone sucked today. 0-3...

Anyone see this....? Faking injuries?? Just pissed me off more when I saw the replay on TV. Half of these NFL players are just becoming a joke.

Anyways Rams move to 0-2....not looking good. And some even tougher teams coming up.

Rams-16
Giants-28

Detroit Lions 4-0

Are you kidding?

This just adds to my NFL conspiracy theory.  Which previously poor teams showed miraculous comebacks after national disasters in their territories?

2002 - Patriots (9/11/01 terrorist attacks)

2005 - Saints (Hurricane Katrina)

2010 - Lions (Auto industry collapse and bailout)

The only disaster the lions have overcome is Matt Millen. They've had several good drafts thanks to their high positions year after year, and they've all worked out. Scary team for years to come.   
They aren;t quite Green Bay good yet in my opinion but they aren't far off.

Sure, let's just believe they made some good draft choices.

I doubt a car factory has to do with them getting Stafford as a QB amongst other top notch players.  Remember they haven't played any major top dollar teams yet.  Either way I'm pulling for them since my Vikings can't seem to pull their heads out.

Let's just believe they made good draft choices????!  :-? ::)

Seriously?  ;D

Sorry to break it to you but the Lions are no fluke and neither are their draft choices. People gotta let go of the 0-16 season that was.....3 YEARS ago.

2007-Johnson, Calvin (Ranked 5th in Receiving yards)
2008- Traded picks to get pick #17-Cherilus, Gosder
2009-Stafford, Matthew (Ranked 6th in Passing yards)
2010-Suh, Ndamukong

Looking at the past 4 years their draft class wasn't a sure its pretty good. Its simply amazing. Frankly speaking if Stafford wasn't injured last year this team would have put up a better fight. Lions are easily the most underrated team in the NFL. The real truth is that its not surprising their 5-0 if you look at there squad....the media just makes it surprising because of their 0-16 season so they feel that the Lions should be obligated to have a losing record for the next 10 years. They've rebuild fast and very nicely.

If we wanna talk about a surprising team this year, I'll go with the Bills.

Yeah Lions showed their face today.  My bets are Bears or Texans in the long run.

Rams get Brandon Llyod

http://www.turfshowtimes.com/2011/10/17 ... ndon-lloyd


...FINALLY. Only took us 5 weeks to realize we need a WR. Remember we still have the easiest schedule for second half. That is if we can beat the niners twice. And remember the niners are going to get what the rams have been playing so I doubt they can keep this up against these other teams (New Orleans, Green Bay, Baltimore, Pittsburg....)

Who knows.

Pitts and Baltimore...Yeah, 'niners could take them.  Green Bay and NOLA, no way.

Suprise to me. I didn't realize the Bears and Tampa Bay are playing in London England Sunday until just now. I hope the Brits see a good game and begin to understand why Yankee Footaball players wear so much protective gear!

Starting this Sunday at Sun Life Stadium against the Denver Broncos, the Miami Dolphins plan to pay tribute to a different seminal football moment. This first one is honoring the University of Florida
