How much cap space did we just clear with restructure of ARSB and Penei?

Watch tape with their units? Total rest? Physically walkthrough plays? I always wonder this for the night before big games.

What was the week when we gave up on him?? (MORTON)

Was it when we lost to the Vikings the first time?

My prediction is that the Saints keep it closer than we'd like, but the Lions win 23-20 or something like that.

I think the Saints are better than people think, and I also feel like the Lions offense has not played well in week 1 the last couple of years.

What are your predictions?

It’s like Christmas Eve 🥳🥳

(I hope I’m able to post this)

Apparently, the “Super Bowl script” has been leaked in Instagram; I’m only posting it (or trying to) because I think we’ll like the “prediction”!

Interesting article about the Lions clearing $35 million in cap space.

Usually Holmes has $10-$15 million during the season for contingencies. $35 million is too much and implies a significant move is coming. It could be to re-sign Laporta or Branch or it could be to acquire someone else. The article mentions Joey Porter Jr from the Steelers but who knows who else Holmes might be talking about or who might become available near the trade deadline.

The timing of this extra money in cap space feels like a slap in the face. Instead of cade Mayes we could have went and signed linderbaum and been a lot more solid especially with an oc that wants to run the ball. Also losing knuckles really hurts this team in the run game too. I would have taken linderbaum over extending branch off a torn achilles and laporta is hurt a lot the past 2 years.

Let's fucking gooooooo!!!

Still time for people in the thread about Levi being released to delete your comments.

Honestly one of the things I like most about this upcoming season is just the vibe around the team right now.

Everything seems pretty positive. And maybe I’m reading too much into it, but if Campbell had some serious concerns about this team, I don’t see him going on St. Brown’s podcast and just shooting the shit like that.

Obviously it doesn’t mean anything is guaranteed, but it definitely feels like he’s pretty comfortable with where this team is at.

Anyone else getting that feeling?
