Another Losing Season Isn't An Option For The Lions

[ACE-ACE]

THE PERSONNEL IS BETTER....
EXPECTATIONS IS GREATER....
THE PRESSURE WILL BE MORE INTENSE....

IN 2001 THEY WERE 2-14
02...3-13
03..5-11
04..6-10
THEY JUST GOT MIKE WILLIAMS WR FOR S.CAL WITH HIM IN AND C. ROGERS STAYING IN GOOD HEALTH..
IF ROY WILLIAMS REC....DOES AS GOOD AS HE DID LAST YEAR ...WE HAVE ONE HELL OF A OFFENSE...AND A GOOD BACK-UP QB IN GARCIA...
HARRINGTON SHOWED IMPOVEMENT WITH 19TD PASSES VS 12 INTERCEPTIONS...HIS RECEIVERS DROPPED MORE THAN 50 PASSES,WHICH HURT HIS STATISTICS...


3 WEEKS AGO THE LINE ON DET WAS OVER AND UNDER 8 GAMES-125
ITS NOW 8 1/2.....THE LOINS WILL WIN AT LESS 9 GAMES THIS YEAR .

I THINK THEY WILL GET IN AS A WILD CARD PICK

I BET THE OVER 8 (3WEEKS AGO) FOR $2500 TO WIN $2,000
THE ONLY ONE I LIKE THIS YEAR.....

THE SUPERBOWL WILL BE PLAYED IN DET THIS YEAR....

I HAVE A DREAM THAT DET WILL PLAY IN IT.....
WOULD I BUT MONEY ON IT.....NO WAY

ARE THEY BETTER THAN THE LAST 4 YEAR A BIG YES

Like that Over play Ace-Ace. I would think it's between Det and Minny for the Division this year, should be a good one.

i would not be surprised if they win 9 or 10 games this year. The offense should be great and if Harrington doesn't produce Garcia is a good QB. After all wasn't he putting up MVP type numbers when he was in San Fran with Ownes. They have 3 good WR's and a good RB. They only question is the defense but that should be improved this year. As an added bonus they aren't exactly in the hardest division in the NFL.

Whoever puts his faith in Harrington's hand is a braver man than I

 

[bodyforlife]

What are you thoughts....

on their defense? I knew they were looking better offensively and Harrington knows if he doesn't produce that Marriucci won't hesitate to put in Garcia. Just not completely convinced with their "d". Would love to hear some insights.

Also, their schedule is surprisingly harder than I would expect with their finish last year. Their non-division games include Baltimore, Carolina, Atlanta, and Pittsburg (none of which I can just pencil Detroit in with a win)

Overs/unders

As a long time handicapper of the NFL, I would strongly suggest that if anyone is thinking of playing overs in football wins for the year, think again. It's a horrible proposition for many reasons.

The main one is injuries and that's something we cannot predict. Harrington and Garcia could both get knocked out as anyone could in this very physical sport, you don't need me to point that out.

It's much wiser to play unders because of the injury factor and we all know that every team will suffer some. Some teams will lose a bunch of key players and every single team is going to lose key personal to injuries. Michael Vick comes instantly to mind when the oddsmakers posted a nine a couple years back and Vick went down right away. Needless to say they didn't come close to nine. That's just an example of what I'm referring to but I'm just pointing out that wagering on overs is a very risky and dangerous proposition. Unders are much, much better.

Good luck in the Detroit over. I'll be rootin for ya.

mooch was on a few days ago, said this team has worked harder than anyotrher team he has ever had, says this team has more guys that want the ball than any other team he has had,

and the entire team made the 14 week off season workout, everyday, every week,


this team turns the cornewr this year, @ least to 9 games and possible playoff.

If You Would A Player For The Loins What Is The Key Questions To Ask?????

I HAVE 5

1. SO WHAT'S MORE SOLID.....JOEY HARRINGTON STATING STATUS OR
CHARLES ROGERS' COLLARBONE?

2. WE HAVE RECEIVERS,A RUNNING GAME,A DECENT BACKUP QB,THE NFC NORTH IS WEAK.......GEEZZZZ,HOW ARE WE GOING TO BLOW IT THIS YEAR?

3.MOOCH'S JOB IS SAFE....ISN'T IT? ITS NOT LIKE HE MADE LARRY BROWN'S MISTAKE AND WON A TITLE AND WENT TO THE FINALS OR ANYTHING.....

4. IS THIS TEAM REALLY DIVIDED INTO JOEY AND JEFF CAMPS?

5.DO PLAYERS GET FREE SUPER BOWL TICKETS OR DO THEY HAVE TO PAY TO GET IN?

ACE ACE saw you like the Det o8.5 (-125)

Current at WSEX is Det 8.5 -105 as of 7/31

Any insight on the PACK o7.5 -130. Really want to pull the trigger on this one. Any team with Favre can go .500
