Popular Post doitny Posted January 31, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 31, 2022 they just watched their QB for 10 years leave and go to the SB with another team. how sh*tty must they feel now. crazy fact: in the 12 years Stafford was there they use 5 first rd picks on the OL. some of you need to ask Detroit how a OL of all 1st picks worked out for them Stafford was 74-90-1 and went to the playoffs 3 times out of 12 years and lost all 3 games. its a crime how they built that team around him. Stafford might be the best QB to never make his team a constant Playoff team. usually when teams draft a QB like Stafford there in the playoffs 9 times out of 12 and not the other way around. 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean like who else is a historically bad franchise that for the past decade hasn’t been good. Browns aren’t a total joke anymore, Texans and Jags were good a few years back. Us and the Lions are literally the worst two franchises in the NFL combining total team history and the past decade. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Origen Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 My first Super Bowl memory is the Bengals against the 49'ers, so this was nearly a 40 year re-do. I've seen more Bengals Super Bowl appearances than Jets. Rams used to be a fun little underdog in 2000, but fug them all now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laken Tomlinson played for SF. and both of these guys have been starters their whole careers. no reason they still shouldn't be on the team. they drafted no WRs and 2 TEs in those years. now they did have Calvin Johnson until 2015 but imagine if they could have added another really good WR. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine they should be because honestly he was good enough for them to be contenders. Yet, this is the sane franchise that wasted Sanders and Megaton’s careers as well. Least with the Jets we never draft good enough players to be responsible for wasting HOF type careers. So we got that going fo…. Nope not even finishing it, the sadness has overwhelmed me.

They spent a ton of first over all picks on good players, spent big in FA, and still are not playing with the big boys. I'm not sure what a worse situation is, ours or theirs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xtina Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 It also has a lot to do with how the franchise is perceived by the nfl and the media. The breaks always go to the “popular” and respected teams. Detroit was the first team to volunteer to play on thanksgiving because no one else would. It is no secret how the refs favor certain teams and players, taking 22 years to give a certain player a penalty. When this season started, and the Rams were playing on Sunday night football, Collinsworth was going on, and on, and on, about how good a QB Stafford was. He was marveling about how good he is and how he, Chris Collinsworth, went all these years without knowing it. He just never paid any attention because, well, he played for Detroit. clear indication of the media bias towards teams/players but unbelievable that CC admitted it, out loud. This is a fireable offense to me 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think receivers were their problem either. They had Golden Tate, drafted Golladay, added Marvin Jones. They have been pretty solid there. It seems like, unlike the Jets, they developed the QB while still failing the franchise. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
