The Lions may surprise me, but I don’t see much to cheer about for the duration of the season. Before the Eagles loss, I thought the Lions might split with Green Bay, beat the Vikings and Bears twice each, and go .500 against everyone else, maybe make a wild card berth.

At this point, their play is so pathetic — beginning with a truly awful offensive line — that I don’t see the Lions winning more than a couple more games — one against the Vikings, and one against someone else on the schedule (you pick one).

Coming soon — “Kitna’s just not getting it done.”

(season so far)

September 9, at Raiders (won)
September 16, Vikings (won)
September 23, at Eagles (lost)
September 30, Bears (won)
October 7, at Redskins (lost)

(predicted outcomes, with the above proviso)

October 21, Buccaneers (win?)
October 28, at Bears (win?)
November 4, Broncos (loss)
November 11, at Cardinals (loss)
November 18, Giants (win?)
Thanksgiving, Packers (loss)
December 2, at Vikings (win)
December 9, Cowboys (loss)
December 16, at Chargers (loss)
December 23, Chiefs (win?)
December 30, at Packers (loss)

So, if they were to win as shown, the best finish would be 8-8. As noted above, I’ll guess 5-11.

Anyone else care to wiegh in? I haven't really followed football in years, but I always like to see the Lions beat the Bears.
