As explained in the Team-by-Team Thread, I am planning on making a thread every three days for a different team. The first few posts will be questions, requests for predictions, etc. There will be a poll unless I don't feel like making one.

IMO the DB's are biggest weakness and still being ignored.

The offense will score plenty. Stafford needs to show improvement back towards his 2011 season and not regressing his mechanics yearly and stop the turnovers at the worst times.

Few other things...

Resign Suh

The new regime has to keep the foot on the pedal and not be content with a small lead. Hopefully the new coaches are agressive and so fricking vanilla and predictable.

7-9 8-8 tops

Resign Suh

Fire Mayhew and Lewand

You guessed it resign Suh

I am interested to see the rookie LB Kyle Van Noy. Saw him play a couple of times last year for BYU and he looks to be a very versatile player who can be effective in a variety of ways.

He has the athleticism to make plays. Sounds like this new regime will actually be aggressive up front. If that's true, the front 7 could really help the secondaries lack of playmakers.

It said 2024, i voted superbowl. If its 2014, i vote toilet bowl. Shoot by 2024 they might demote the lions to the arena league the way they play defense.

I predict that the Lions will go 4 -16 in 2024. Check back in ten years! (Before somebody posts that I can't count ,this will be the number of regular season games by that year)

Not sure aboot LP's calves..... But he definitely ain't shavin' his chin.

Not a doubt in my mind The Lions win the Super Bowl in 2024. Stafford will have time to settle in and mature by then.

Even with homer glasses on I voted for losing in the divisional round. Is there a Tat for that?

LOL No one deserves to go through life with a "loser" tat on his forehead!
