Lions laundry list of injury designations includes LaPorta out for Sunday Night

Brock Wright blocks at least as well as LaPorta? I certainly hope so.

I don’t know why Brock doesn’t get more love. He’s a Dan Campbell clone. He does everything he’s asked to do at a Pro level.

He took over for Hockinson in 22, and that’s when we started winning. Not saying that’s why. I’m just saying he obviously didn’t hurt us, either.

High effort! From the word go until the whistle.

We’re good!

I like where your head is at, but TeSlaa will likely not receive a bump in targets/action. I don’t want to be this guy but I know someone who knows someone and was told he is not even close to being ready to be a major contributor. I think he’s having trouble with the playbook. Laporta cannot be replaced. Dan will just have to try to figure out a way to get others open in the intermediate range. My guy says ā€œLeafā€ will likely surprise most with how much run he gets.

I want to be optimistic but I can’t see the Lions staying with Philly this time around. Champions always seem to rise up under the bright lights at home. Laporta and Joseph being out is a realll bummer. If they were in I could see a very tight game. I’ve got the Lions losing this one 38-20

Man, I just thought we were getting healthier after the buy week

Seems like we all bought into the buy too much.

Did Arnold’s concussion happen in run support?

Nowhere near

In the past he did. This year he actually has been a huge liability.

Down 3/5 of the starting DBs and Amik is hampered… Depth is great with Harper, Ya Sin and Whiteside, we CANNOT suffer another injury to the back end though. Arnold/Reed/Kerby back by Thanksgiving hopefully

I’d much rather give some of these guys a week or two to get right so we have them for the long haul (starting with GB), than increase their likelihood of making it worse because of coming back too soon and then they’re done for the stretch run. One of the reasons I have so much hope for this year is we are going to be getting guys back (assuming they can STAY back) for the most important of the season. That’s a huge difference from last year when it seemed like everyone that dropped was done for the year.

I think we can win this game if we stay ahead of the sticks, but even if we don’t, I’m not going to overreact to one game in a tough road environment. If we lose, it’s a huge blow to any hopes of getting the #1 seed, but I’ll still take a fairly healthy roster and getting hot at the end of the season as priority #1.

Overpriced and prone to flaming out?

If the Lions lose in Philly, it’s really win the division or bust. Rest guys against NYG, the real push then starts against GB like you said

This is every dam week. Gets very frustrating. Team is snake bitten.

The problem is resting doesn’t help. These guys take turns go down

every week.

Freaking awesome and dead sexy?
