    Detroit's remaining schedule is:
    Vikings
    Jets
    Panthers
    Bears
    Packers

    I don't like their odds against the Vikes this Sunday. I could see them knock off the Jets. But those last three? They could finish really strong and end up staying in 2nd in the NFC North. Hard to think that isn't worthy of Campbell getting another year.
    It’s rather scary to think the Lions could well win three of those last five games (losses to Minnesota and Green Bay) and finish 8-9, a flat out remarkable achievement, given how crappy Detroit has been since, well, forever.

    Got an alert that Buffalo LB Von Miller is done for the season from a knee injury.

    Raiders vs. Rams tonight. If Vegas can't beat hopelessly hobbled L.A. who might (heavy emphasis on "might") start newly acquired Baker Mayfield, the Raiders might as well forfeit the rest of the season because they stink like dead fish wrapped in day old diapers.

    Detroit fans have really suffered for years ...and years....and years. They get a few bright moments. Like the Wayne Fontes years where they'd make the playoffs and somehow sadly lose. Or the few years under Jim Caldwell with same result.

    Speaking of the Lions I saw a NFL Life with Calvin Johnson and he revealed some things about his sudden exit.


    - Megatron was hurting BAD those final 2 seasons. His wife revealed that Johnson could barely walk due to his ankles after games. That they'd get so stiff and he would have to shuffle across the floor when he'd get up and get them loose.


    - Johnson himself said he was in a lot of pain after games but wouldn't let the team know and kept on going to where he finally made a decision that 2015 would be final season due to it.


    - Matthew Stafford knew something was wrong one day when Johnson told him to not throw the ball to him if he did a route having to break to his right. Due to the bad ankle. But he was ok with everything to the left.


    - There is a clip where Johnson is walking the sideline and he tells a fellow teammate , "I have to keep walking or I'll get stiff If I sit down..."


    - Johnson didn't want to become a distraction that final season. He felt if he announced he would retire after 2015 then he'd become a distraction for everyone as he wanted to win. He did regret waiting til after the final game to tell Caldwell he was done due to injuries.

    Atlanta has benched QB Marcus Mariota and will start rookie 3rd rd pick Desmond Riddle this week. The team is high on Riddle and been letting him learn the 1st , 13 weeks of season.

    Sadly, Ridder won’t have much to work with. Atlanta’s top receiver (Calvin Ridley) is in a season long timeout for gambling while their second best position player, TE Kyle Pitts was lost for the season from injury a few weeks ago. It’ll be hard for the Falcons to evaluate Ridder without sufficient talent around him.

    On a football related subject, did anyone here see Draft Day with Kevin Cosner. If so, what did you think?

    Raiders 10-0 over the Rams, and Baker Mayfield takes the field with two minutes left in the opening quarter.

    Not in realms of reality. No GM is gonna take a 2nd rd pick or 2 , 2nds from a team to trade up draft wise. Unless they are on drugs lol

    The second best example of why films about sports executives aren’t worth it even at best.

    It’s not bad bad, but it easily gets surpassed by any actual, half-as-long documentary about real draft drama.
    Like action, adventure, rogues, and outlaws? Like anti-heroes, femme fatales, mysteries and thrillers?

    I wrote a book with them. Outlaw’s Shadow: A Sherwood Noir. Robin Hood’s evil counterpart, Guy of Gisbourne, is the main character. Feel free to give it a look: https://read.amazon.com/kp/embed?asi...E2PKBNJFH76GQP

    Only the Raiders can lose games to a 1st time head coach this season and a guy who is starting suddenly in LA after being cut by his old team a few days ago.
