It's good man, site just enjoys undermining anything the Lions accomplish.
You don't have to explain it.

We could win the Super Bowl this year and everyone would nitpick some aspect of it.

Moving on.

12. I'll tell you who my Executive of the Year is: Cincinnati owner Mike Brown. I'm serious. Not only does he find his franchise wide receiver and quarterback in the same draft; he trades away a quarterback who wasn't going to play another down for him and gains a first-and-second-round draft pick in return -- effectively, setting up the Bengals for the future. It's not often Brown is applauded, but he should be now.

Interesting fact:

Patriots CB Devin McCourty, who made the Pro Bowl last season, is the first defensive back in NFL history to allow over 1000 yards receiving.

He has regressed alot, due to the fact that we had nobodys starting at safety (Sergio Brown, Sterling Moore, Josh Barrett, etc), and he played well when he knew there was a safety over the top.

But still, damn.

I have changed my stance and I do think Calvin is the best WR in the NFL.

Andre can't stay on the field... Don't want him on my team. Larry Fitzgerald is clearly elite, and is probably the better route runner of the two (between he and Calvin) but in today's NFL, Calvin is such a unique red zone threat, and that is a big time game changer for me. He is uncoverable in the end zone.

I'll change my stance when I see Calvin produce in the playoffs like Fitz has.

He isn't the first in history, he's just the first to do it since Pro Football Focus has recorded cornerback metrics. Which is like 4 years.

Still pretty bad, but I doubt it was worst of all time bad.

You can't blame Calvin for having basically no team around him for the years he has been in Detroit. Thus not giving him a chance to show his skills on the big stage in the playoffs.

The guy is a superstar wide-out.

Well obviously he hasnt made the playoffs recently. But this is his 1st time making it so now is his shot to prove he is the best WR in the league. When it matters the most. I could really give a shit about what a player does in the regular season, its the playoffs where legacies and memories are created.
