You guys need to calm down and see this with some sense of balance. Who is blowing this out of proportion or acting all crazy?
We have great off-season acquisitions. We were already in the elite tier of the conference.
But last year's team could be said to have overachieved. We did all that with a roster full of bargain basement castoff wideouts. Well okay there are other positions on the roster. But you know what I mean.
Great job, etc. But there's no guarantee that somebody else doesn't overachieve this year... and it IS possible that the "August super bowl annointment" could go to the head of a key player or two. Beyond that, we regularly say the Chargers are the more "talented" team, going by strict talent -- you think LT and company just roll over because the papers said we're in?
Could you please show me where anyone is implying anything you said? The only people who have commented on this have shown cautious optimism. No player has said a damn thing. In fact, IF a player has commented on it at all, they've either blown it off or said that its too early to tell anything.
Every team goes to war every Sunday. Okay, also not true. In fact I don't know if the Lions EVER do... but most games are basically pitched battles. You have to prove it every week on the field, not at the contract signing table.
Relax guys. The season will be here soon enough... stop the jaw-flapping about "I don't see what's stopping us." 31 other teams of highly trained, skilled, and paid professional athletes, and the 31 best coaching minds (or at least a good proportion of them), that the country has to offer.
Again, I don't see anyone going hyper or anything of the sort unless you are totally blowing what BBfan said out of proportion
This can go south in a hurry, never forget.
BBfan said just that.
If our boys start thinking like that, we can start thinking about a high first round draft pick next year, if ya know what I'm sayin'.
