Are we better then last year?

I think we are.

Come Monday morning Detroit will be an afterthought,

in the rearview mirror.

The music is timeless ... DAA BEARRSSE even more so. :laughing-019:

We have better talent than we did last years but we weren't using it or playing up to the level that we should have gained from better talent. Part of that was Martz's foolishness and some I put on Lovie for not making some changes sooner than he did. I like the fact that he's calling guys out now and sitting them when they don't measure up to what's expected of them.

We need to play better because we fell short last year and we were well on our way to doing it again until the last couple of weeks. If we can keep dominating the line of scrimmage like we did against Philly, keep a decent balance between our running and passing attacks, and improve our 1st an goal playcalling we've got a chance of getting to the top.

We're a very long way still from reaching the peak but at least we're on an upswing. It just has to continue is all.

Amen brother. Just putting some music in here to get us into the spirit.

We never had to take detroit all that seriously before ... but the times because of the packers has changed all that.

Suddenly inside of one year ... we cant just cruise to a playoff or non playoff situation any more.

We have to be expected to show up and play in our own division.

The defense showed up big time but the offense sputtered most of the game. Martz's game plan wasn't that great so it's a good thing we got the scores we did from the D and ST's. That was the difference.

Imagine this DEFENSE with the OFFENSE behaving the same way.

Do we need ONE MORE BIG GUY at WR for Cutler?

All the little guys are there.

Whos a F.A. WR coming on line in 2012?

A big guy that gets numbers?

And if none are there ... whats up in the college ranks?

Do we go for that or as usual draft defense?

We need Earl Bennett to clone himself 6 catches for 81 yards. Only 3 other guys caught one ball each and non of those three was RWill as ususal. Just when I think the guy's gonna step up his game he lays his lazy ass down again. He's gotta be the biggest disappointment in a WR in the NFL. If you could put Sanz's desire into Williams body he'd be all-pro every year.
