What's that? Step in a giant pile of shit named Romo and win a game they had no business winning. It's the new catch phrase. The Jets and Lions got Romo'd!
Wouldn't it make more sense to say the Cowboys got Romo'd? He's 32, I wouldn't doubt if they drafted a QB early next April.
...and I'm not trying to take anything away from the Lions. I think they are definitely a top team in the NFC right now and getting better.
It's a good sign when you win games even when you play poorly. And I don't mind even if you were knocking the Lions. I don't think anyone outside of that locker room knows what to expect the rest of this season or what kind of team they really are.
If the Jets really do miss the playoffs, I'll re-focus all of my attention to the Lions, and Packers....as well as the Patriots losing. The Lions...michigan sports fans deserve something to be happy about, and if my home state Pack doesn't win again, then I'm all for my favorite player's team winning it all in a shocking upset. (they just have to play in domes every game...)
They came through for me and made the playoffs. Told co-workers in the summer that the Lions would win 10 or 11 games this season. But the weekly office pool? Never won it. Worst season ever for me with that.
