They're no worse than the Rams were prior to our playing them.I mean, we do get Carolina at home week 3.![]()
They're no worse than the Rams were prior to our playing them.
Now that we have a sample to look at, yes, of course the Rams look better than the Panthers. They won their opener while the Panthers lost theirs.Based on how the first game of the season went for both teams, it sure looks like the Panthers are worse than the Rams at this point. Probably a lot worse.

But that's not what I said. I said that prior to our playing them, the Panthers were thought to be no worse than the Rams.
I highly suspect we will see a closer version of the team we expected to see last week.
For the first time ever - I honestly don't feel like there's enough info to even call this game -I highly suspect we will see a closer version of the team we expected to see last week.
Welcome aboard.Good luck fellas. All of y'all being down on your team is making me nervous. I've seen this play out before. The Seahawks need to make a splash early to take the crowd out of it, and I can see that happening. My heart says Lions win, but my head says:
20-10 Seahawks.
Ford Field is going to be electric. Seriously, a freaking madhouse. The Lions fans have not been this excited about their future in a long time.
They finished 8-2 last year and with a statement win at Lambeau. They start this year with another statement win.
The Seahawks on the other hand slid into mediocrity as the season progressed and needed overtime at home to extend their season against a gutted Rams squad featuring Baker Mayfield at QB.
Fast forward to Sunday and a couple key points:
1. Aidan Hutchinson is a monster but their defense as a whole isn't. The Lions were ranked 32nd in total defense and 28th in scoring defense last year.
2. Protection is paramount when trying to utilize super talented receivers like DK, JSN, and Lockett, and we don't have our starting tackles.
3. Let me write that again. We don't have tackles. We just signed a 41 year old off the couch.
In order to have shot at this game, we need some BIG plays with the deep ball. A couple of 40 yard passes or a long TD bomb early could neutralize the crowd. The problem is, Geno won't have time. It will be a closer than some think, but we can't get over missing the bookends.
