Are these the type of quotes that will be regretted after the game?
Weak armed Kellen Moore only started 2 games in the NFL. In one of them he threw for 435 yards with 3 TDs and over 100 QB rating.
The Pats are favored, put some money on them.
Btw, the 46.5 total points, I’m picking the over.
It’s a tempting line, but as others in the thread have said, I think the run game really shortens this game potentially. The Lions can’t stop anyone on the ground. I’m sure Bellichek will play it safe, keep the clock moving, win the time of possession battle, minimize errors and keep the Lions off the field. I almost wonder if this will be a sneaky 21-17 game.
Lastly, the Lions have their 3rd kicker so far they just sighed off the street playing outdoors in a windy stadium. Not so sure it’s going to be a slugfest

No.
It is what it is…… Zappe has a pea shooter of an arm.

He played for Chicago last week and hit 4 field goals. 4 of 4. Long of 49.
That game was on my mind too. Exactly what I’ve been thinking coming into today.
He’s done it the opposite way too, throwing the shit out of it if that’s the weakness of the defense.
The Pats w/Brady had multiple games where they just threw the ball the entire game because that was the weakness of the D. Usually against Pittsburgh. I believe there was at least one where they came out and threw it 20+ times to start the game.

You don’t need to be Einstein to find weaknesses in the Lions defense.
I think there are layers to what’s wrong with the defense… I’m of the camp that’s it’s BOTH a talent deficiency and a coaching/scheme/defensive play-calling deficiency.
If I’m right that’s both good and bad news. With some tweeks I’m hopeful that we can be less historically awful.
Shit, and they have a rocket surgeon calling plays for them, and he’s hungry for a win.
And Twinkies.
I’m aware, but are you assuming someone signed by the Lions is going to play that well? This franchise? Lol

Zappe is looking pretty good to me
So did Geno Smith.

Both looked very accurate not like a normal Back up
It’s funny some how some predicated he would have a good day today. It’s like they had a Qrystel ball or something
They both have the same thing in common.
True, but I did watch Zappe play a little bit in college and he is playing exactly the same way.
I hope you didn’t put real money on the over.
