Yes.

He's not always consistent in his play but he can consistently make the type of throws we haven't seen in years.

I'd be curious if there's a stat for average games played per season by order of position. Just feels like so many guys on the line are out for a a third of the season these days, if not more.

The Lions are favored against Washington...that's pretty funny. Vegas thinks Washington is straight trash. Might be the week to actually put money on the home team, even though that's never a good idea.

Wentz threw 4 TDs but also 3 interceptions. Wentz only threw for 7 interceptions all of last season.

2 ints, not 3.

I forgot that the pass heave on the offsides didn't count.

Wow, man got shot twice about 2 weeks ago & he’s doing agility drills already.

That is absolutely fantastic. Thanks for sharing.

I mean how impressive this is generally depends on where he took the bullet and what the bullet did or did not go though and what kind of bullet he took.

If he took a regular old 9mm to the back of the thigh or something and it didn't hit him at a weird angle or rip too much. That's not that shocking.

If he took a couple hollow points to the knee then this is a damn mericle.

Dropping 35 on the Eagles doesn't bode well for us.

If it goes that way, all good, but hoping we can put up 30 as well even if in a loss.

Lions injury report: Sept. 16

Out
Frank Ragnow C, groin, toe

Questionable
Jonah Jackson G, finger
Ifeatu Melifonwu S, hamstring
Amani Oruwariye CB, back
D'Andre Swift RB, ankle

Hmmm this could become a real test of the Lions OL depth…
Their starting RG was already hurt last week and the back up G was too.

Could be a big day for Payne & Allen again.

It’s time to fire del rio. He’s not doing his job on the field, and he’s an ass off the field. The defense has underwhelmed for two straight seasons.

Agreed. Actually, the time to fire him was this summer after those abhorrent remarks

Those remarks where what ever. He should have been fired last year when it was clear he was running what could be a top ten defence into the dirt with terrible planning, a outdated play book and stupid play calling.

A poor rushing attack isn't helping things. A good rushing attack can push a defense from the bottom of the pack to the middle. Likewise, so can an elite throwing offense, but that's much harder to come by.

All things being equal, this is probably an average football team rather than a poor one, and I don't think better coaching on either side can transform that status by much. I think the single greatest thing that could help both sides of the ball would be an elite running back.
