I wonder if Rayburns addiction landed him on the unemployment line in the NFL.. From what I remember as an undrafted FA he had a nice little career for himself here at one point.

That 95 lions playoff game was one of the most memorable playoff games ever. It’d be awesome to watch that one again.

Run Game

Weaver is a great pickup but i think that the offensive line additions will be what really solidifies the short yardage running game. Its no question that Tra was a great player but he seemed to get in the way and get pushed around when we needed that one yard. We have size and strength and should be primed to run teams over!

tra was not that good last season

The league seems to think that we downgraded at the LT posistion — WE DID NOT!! He was OK in pass protection though. With Andrews and peters in the line up I think our line is going to be 10 times better

Cornelious!!!!!!

Is anybody as excited about Ingram as i am? i think if he never got injured last year he would be a first rounder. when we get near the endzone we can now look for him and Celek.
