Sights and Sounds | 2021 Week 17 vs. Seattle Seahawks

Makes you wonder why Fatty Matty traded that guy! Diggs is classy

@Rudy Cianfarani why fat shame though

@Kyle Gabriel my bad I will stop! But so disturbed on the way he treated players fans and the press!

@Rudy Cianfarani I agree he sucked but it’s just not cool to fat shame

what a delightfully positive exchange

@Xerxes Exo if this administration and team identity doesn’t look different to you than years past I really don’t know if I can say anything that’s gonna change your mind. Seriously, go watch some post-game pressers and practice clips from before and after. No twitter drama, no negative insider rumors.

Also idk what cutting FA acquisitions has to do with anything…I can only think of Elder and Perriman that were expected to make the main roster but if they don’t play up to the 53 per their contract it is what it is., they ended up getting waived from other practice squads after us. I can’t think of anybody who was waived because they were asking to get out or anything like that

@John Harwood Press conferences? Lol…
That’s what you tell me to go watch for proof of a culture change? At least you are one of the very rare Lions fans to admit that you mostly care about being entertained and what you’re being told as opposed to what’s actually happening.

Oh…ummm… Yeah, you don’t actually follow this team much, right? Tyrell Williams was only supposed to be but actually was our number one wide receiver through training camp and the first three weeks of the season and then demanded his release. Trinity Benson was his replacement lol

Perriman is on his way to a SB. Khadarel Hodge is his replacement along with Tom Kennedy

Fells is with him in TB

Josh Hill, TE from New Orleans was supposed to push Fells for TE2 but he RETIRED the 2nd day after camp. You have Brock Wright and 2 OL playing there today.

Elder was supposed to be our starting nickel CB after Ford demanded his release … You got Will Harris there now lol…

Jamie Collins? He didnt even try for this joker and wasnthen released.

I didn’t say starters I said guys they brought in and then we have strange situations like Tyrell Crosby who just quit apparently and Taylor Decker gave up his captain status and we didn’t even see him for eight weeks but I’m sure you have official reason for all of this, right?

Now, tell me what the official press releases on Detroit Lions website as a rebuttal now…

@John Harwood Bro… You ACTUALLY don’t follow the NFL! There has been numerous rumours and drama around this team. Jason La Canfora reported that Campbell acts different behind closed doors, avoids accountability and then ofcourse the Lynn/Goff drama…wtf have you been? Lol

And.. Yeaaa:
Perriman is playing for AB. He’s catching TDs, he’s not sitting on thier PS. Fells is TE3 for them, in a blocking role but here, he never stepped on the field.

I have been following the sport for a long time and I know a player’s behavior when he’s checked-out.

This team didnt even start trying untill about week 12 and youre going to tell me the culture changed in that short time based on press conferences and/or out-dated and wrong information?

Wow… You’re the FIRST to actually admit this! I applaud you, in a pathetic way…

@Xerxes Exo perriman has 4 catches and a touchdown and he was waived from the Bears practice squad after he left the Lions. Corn Elder got waived off two other practice squads after Detroit. I missed the part where Williams ‘demanded’ a release unless you’re just creatively filling in the gaps. Collins did the exact same thing in Cleveland (grab a big contract and loaf) and the defense immediately improved after he left. Just seems like you have some axe to grind and are intent on finding sensationalism in every roster transaction. I could do that for any team and make equally wild claims, but I won’t because it’s dumb. If you hate the Lions so much stop watching and get off the fan page.

And try to watch the random personal insults you’re throwing out because someone…disagreed with your smug negative takes on a fan page on youtube. Chill out. Love, empathy, compassion, right?

@John HarwoodPersonal insults? Where? I quite literally never attack people, personally. I WILL attack American ignorance, however.

You’re missing the point. The Lions gave those guys guaranteed FA contracts for the season to play HERE.

It really doesn’t matter what happened after the fact because it was a failure here and by the way, it wouldn’t matter if perriman only had one catch in Tampa Bay because that is a lot more than what he had here.

Also, the stat sheets do not tell the entire story. The very fact that they never even attempted to make the Detroit Lions team speaks volumes of Dan Campbell because he has all the help he needs with that All-Star coaching staff so it’s very obvious that he was the problem

Except not a single one of the players you listed is even half as good as Diggs or Slay. The only one maybe “chased out of town” was Collins, who has a reputation already for dogging it. The rest were just not good enough.

@Logan Emlet Doesn’t matter, you missed the point. Slay and Diggs were chased out for lesser players that would “play for” for Patricia like Justin Coleman and Harmon.

So, while they weren’t quite pro bowlers like Slay, they were better than Trinity Benson, Hodge, Tom Kennedy and Jared Pickney…guys who would “play for” Dan Too.

Also, why sign FAs if youre just going to cut them? Why not just sign your third-stringers and UDFAs from week 1 and start them? Why burn the salary with Perriman and Fells and Williams to begin with? The reason they extended Goff was BECAUSE of the failed contracts of the guys they brought in this year… You don’t actually follow this team, do you?

SOL…
