I can’t remember the last time this particular team, including Dan, faced such brutal headwinds as they do now.
“To have grit means to possess the combination of passion and perseverance for a long-term goal despite facing obstacles, setbacks, or failure.”
Well, they’ll have their opportunity to do two things: a) Prove the “GRIT” thing isn’t just a label on a wall somewhere in Allen Park, Michigan and b) Etch their name into Detroit Lions and football lore.
I mean they’re 7-5 and we knew as soon as the regular season ended last year that this schedule would be an absolute widowmaker. I’m not sure “shitshow” is the right term.
