I'm normally not a fan of alternate uniforms, but these Detroit helmets are sharp.

Late in q3, Tyreek Hill has 3 carries for 19 yards and 3 catches for 6 yards.
I think that sums up matters pretty well.

Tyreek has beaten the defense deep twice, once on a 3rd and long somehow. One time he was severely underthrown and the other severely overthrown.

This is making me re-think how good Tua is.

Even better than the Lions becoming a legit team, is how much fun they are.

I met Spielman. He was super cool. I’ll try to post some pictures if I can figure out how.

They've probably shown this during the game, but no QB has ever had a qualifying game (14 attempts minimum) without an incompletion or interception. Best with one was a Drew Brees 29-for-30 in a blowout over Indy five years ago.

This is really a key point. The Bears could have four HoF WRs and it would not matter one iota if Caleb has no time to throw. Darnell Wright is the only guy worth salvaging from this O-line mess. The interior guys all need to go but did you see how bad Jones was at LT? He's got no anchor at all. It will certainly take more than one offseason to fix the line problem but let's take a WR with #9 because he has "value". Silly logic when the QB is running for his life.

In general though the offensive line play is terrible across a lot of the NFL right now. Whether that’s due to the decrease in allowed practice and playing the starting unit less and less in preseason or whatever.
If you take a tackle or guard at 9 overall, it still doesn’t fix the other 3 positions on the line and the chances are it’s taking him a long time to get up to speed. Building a line takes a ton of investment (in acquiring and retaining players), coaching and patience, and while the Odunze pick probably wasn’t the right one I’m not sure it’s the silver bullet either if they just go and take the highest rated OL in a weak class either. The NFL is just in a really interesting place overall. So many injuries, so many offenses looking terrible even accounting for all the injuries. Maybe it’s something that corrects itself and by week 10 it’s a distant memory, but you wonder what levers the NFL has left to increase offense and decrease the volume of key players getting injured. Defenses just keep getting bigger, faster and it takes a hell of a lot less practice time to install a new defensive scheme than an offensive one. |

Me: maybe superstar quarterbacks are starting to get paid too much. Heck, even average quarterbacks seem to be a bit overpaid.
[watches five minutes of Tyler Hundley and Mason Rudolph] Oh, yeah. Right. |

I fell asleep early in the 4th quarter of the Lions game. Oh well. Defense was giving me flashbacks to last year, though.
