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.

(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)

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

I’m going to go with 8-8. They have some tough games left. I think the first game (Bucs) after the bye week is the predictor...it’s the sort of game they would lose in the past and proceed to tank for several weeks in a row. I think they squeak out a win, allowing them to play some inspired ball for a while and show hope for the future. The key is to get me to attend the game...the Lions are 2-0 this year (Raiders/Vikings) with me in attendance. ;-)

I have been waiting for the ‘rebuild’ of the Lions since the 50’s. They will continue to go nowhere as long as Ford owns the team.

They have squandered their draft picks, while they maintain one of the highest paid teams in the league.

As long as the pigeons keep filling the stadium, Ford could not care less.
