NFC Wild Card Game - (6) Detroit Lions at (3) New Orleans Saints

  • Non
    Detroit isn't going all the way this year but they're close because of this offense.

    Need a few pieces on defense.

    i know he's a beast in all but the saints might want to attempt to guard megatron

    Entertaining game.

    Good pick for Saturday night.

    Mendenhall getting hurt.

    I'm just going to say that there's a chance that Redman is better suited for the playoffs because of the way he runs between the tackles and picks up hidden yards. If he can run hard and get the offensive line pumped up to block for him, they'll be more balanced. And then if they make it to the Super Bowl, they'll have the balanced offense with more ball control to go along with the defense. Unlikely but there's a chance.

    Shocker non randomly brings up the Steelers in a non-steelers thread

    not random

    more of a response to the earlier discussion about the NFC vs. AFC

    semi-random
  • Non
    ball was out
  • Tiger2003
    Didn't anyone else hear a whistle?
  • Non
    second turnover

    Lions better cash in, big opportunity
  • tk421
    long way to go but I'm going to laugh if after all the hype about his great record breaking season Brees is one and done.
  • Benny The Jet
    why did they call it dead if it was a fumble? he coul have clearly taken that to the hosue
  • tk421
    Lions need to capitalize on these turnovers big time.

    That's what I was wondering too. If the Steelers can get these opportunities they better not get screwed by the refs Like that.

    It's all open playoff talk now anyway. It's all connected as these teams chase the Lombardi Trophy.
  • Tiger2003
    Should have been a flag.

    this is lions vs saints. just as the other thread was texans vs bengals. NOTHING to do with the steelers

    as far as this game, lions need to capatalize on those turnovers
  • Non
    That would've been a flag if that was a Steelers defensive player spiking the guy lol

    Wrong. BR was discussing the teams left and if they could compete against the Saints or Packers. Other teams were already drawn into the discussion.

    I'm right about this.

    Pretty sure AFC vs NFC was getting talked about.
  • tk421
    Lions 2 turnovers and 0 points, not going to cut it.
  • Non
    I like the Lions being borderline dirty...there's sort of a way to do it that makes you a tough road team...but you can't be obvious to the extend that it draws penalty

    just a little extra shove here and there is good football
  • Non
    no catch
  • tk421
    that's incomplete, but personal foul on Detroit.
