Come with me on a journey of what may be…
Week 10
"It’s been a magical first nine weeks for the surprising 7-2 Detroit Lions, fresh off a 35-16 thumping of the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau that saw WR’s Amon-Ra St Brown and Jameson Williams combine for over 200 receiving yards and three touchdowns, while the Lions ground game contributed 150 rushing yards and a pair of scores.
"Tragically, while running out the clock, QB Jared Goff tripped over teammate Will Harris’s mouthpiece, resulting in a sprain expected to keep him out of action for the next 5-7 weeks. "
Week 15 Post-game
"The 7-7 Lions have lost several close games as adventurous gunslinger Tim Boyle is never afraid to throw into triple coverage, even when he doesn’t have a receiver in the area. Boyle was replaced in the 3rd quarter of Sundays game after throwing his 19th interception in the last 5 games. On the bright side, few offensive players have racked up as many tackles as the Lions Penei Sewell. Upon hearing the news he was going into the game, QB David Blow, I mean Blough, promptly threw up into his helmet while listening to QB Coach Mark Brunell’s pep talk.
"Unfortunately, Blough forgot he threw up in his helmet, in a stunning clip no one else will be forgetting anytime soon. The reeling Lions are praying that Jared Goff will get better soon. "
Week 16 Post-game
“I have to admit folks, I’ve never seen anything quite like this before. QB David Blough, after throwing up multiple times, began stripping at the 50 yard line, screaming ‘I’m finally free!’. QB Tim Boyle finished the game, throwing only three more interceptions as the Lions fall to 7-8 and watch their once promising season slipping away”
Week 17 Post-game
"QB Jared Goff tried to make it, but was ruled out by trainers in pregame warm-ups. QB Steven Montez led a plucky game, but it wasn’t enough to overcome the Bills in Buffalo as the Lions have been eliminated from the postseason, yet again.
"One can only wonder how different things might be if the Lions had a quarterback capable of winning just a few games in Goff’s absence. Instead, we’ll all be left to wonder, what might have been. "
