I feel awful for Lions fans
- Go 15-2, literally your best season in franchise history
- Suffer injuries that devastate your defense leaving it a shell of itself
- Your QB implodes in the playoffs as he's always struggled there (there's a reason the Rams dumped him for Stafford)
- You win 0 playoff games after what's been a remarkable season
I know Detroit is a great young team and they "should" be back but the NFL is VOLATILE man and if they really blew their shot at a SB title these two years cuz of a blown lead vs the 49ers last NFCCG and too many injuries this year... I don't know how I'd cope with that. At least our shortcomings with good teams the last 3 years you can point to X or Y deficiency.
