Detroit Lions?!

Does anyone else get frustrated watching this team? They have so much talent, but they commit the most inexcusably stupid penalties. I couldn't imagine being a fan, because it makes me want to bang my head against a wall even as an impartial observer. The coaches need to reel these guys in.

Frustrated at an opposing team? No, not at all! I laugh in the fact they are just simply following the level of class set by their head coach!

Titans D was much the same with Schwartz was there

Finnegan, Haynesworth and others, Titans got a reputation around the league

Seems Schwartz has carried it over to Detroit

Lots of talent, but no discipline.

It is telling that they still have issues with sportsmanship and personal fouls when Suh isn't on the field. I seem to recall earlier in the season someone saying something about Suh being a dirty player and the Lions' coach telling him to "keep doing what you do" and that "there's nothing dirty about him". Definitely seems to be filtering down from the HC in this case.

A dirty and undisciplined team..it is a reflection of their head coach.

They remind me a lot of the '09 Ravens.

Well with us it would be like Mason complaining to the ref and Frank Walker not knowing how to cover. With the Lions it's like, well, the name Nstompy-kong Suh pretty much sums it up.
