Indianapolis.


Peyton+ Megatron+ Wayne+ Garcon+ Collie+ Gonzalez= Sex.
Not happening, get it out of your head.

A. Garcon is a product of Manning.
B. Collie is now <Censored> for brains and is also a product of Manning.
C. Gonzalez = bust and probably won't be back on the Colts.

Omg, if the Giants traded for him, we would so have the best receiving group in the league. Calvin is an amazing talent and he needs to continue to analyze the situation with the Lions, if the Lions can reach a .500 record before his contract is up I think he stays. Anything less than that and I think he leaves.

A lot of teams in the league would be able to claim that if they added Calvin lol

The Jets certainly could. CJ, Holmes, Edwards, Cotchery, Keller, LT in the backfield. Damnnnn

Braylon isnt going to be on the Jets next year, and it would be pretty dumb for them to bring him back

Our offense would be better than yours and we have a proven track record of winning so he will be enticed by that more. And your running game will be very suspect very soon because LT is on the backside of his career.

I was simply comparing WR corps, wasn't going into anything else. But I can't see our running game being suspect. Shonn Greene is a good RB and we have a great offensive line.

I don't think any of us have to worry about this, he'll be with the Lions next year.

I wouldn't be mad if he left, but at the same time, I feel he wont. The team is getting better, call it a dumb excuse, but they are. If they could get a couple more pieces in this draft, they can continue to improve. He still has a couple years left on his contract so these next two seasons will be crucial. If they continue to struggle, I could see him leaving. Obviously, I would be upset, but it's a business, and he deserves to be on a team that can win.

It doesn't seem like he really wants to go in the first place.

That's a main reason why i'm not worried about it. He seems like a very loyal guy, and Detroit likes the loyal guys (ex. Jason Hanson)

Exactly.

This isn't T.O., Chad Johnson, or Roddy White. CJ keeps to himself and never lashes out after a defeat. When the Lions went 0-16 not once did CJ go on ESPN and throw a fit.

Had Miami gone 0-16 in their first 16 games this season, LeBron James would be crying like a <Censored> along with Bosh.

When did Roddy get T.O and Chad status??

He ended up having an interview clearing up what he said. I can't find it. Basically it sounded like he didn't mean it the way it sounds.

The lions with stafford is a decent team, but they need to get their ground game going to open the passing game. Sure without Kevin Smith doesn't help, but even with Best he had a good start to the year but then it all went downhill then he got hurt..

They may want to show and prove to CJ that they have plans to make the team better. Stafford does need to stay healthy though otherwise they'll stand little to no chance!

Best hasnt been putting up the stats he was at the beginning of the season because he has had two turf toes pretty much all season. Last game it looked like he has most of his explosiveness back, but not all of it. And yes this teams future rests on Stafford's shoulders literally.

All he said was that he wants to win. I don't think he implied that it means going to another team b/c the Lions can't win...but leave it to the media to start picking apart those comments and of course, we all draw our assumptions.
