I can sense the fear in other NFC North fans and I like it.

No one wants to hear about any good news for the Lions. except Lions fans. Fairley and a 3rd year Suh will keep OCs from sleeping.

Looks like the quickest way to get an excellent practice evaluation with the Lions is to have either anger management issues or an substance abuse problem.

Like rmc1995 said:
“Talent level is the only reason any player on any team is still on the roster.”

Not only that, talent is the only reason any of us have a job … unless you’re related to someone.

Yeah, and Leshoure has thrown away all his bongs, Young and Delmas were last seen holding hands over lunch, the HC recently participated in handshake etiquette lessons, Best hasn’t needed an excedrin in 30 days, and Suh recently sent a dozen roses and a book on french poetry to all the Packer’s offensive linemen. Yawn.

Love the fact Purpleguy know the name of more than one Lion. Good or bad, that’s a far departure from five years ago. These characters may be headed for a Monster year.

Paea is going to be a better DT than Fairley? Are you serious? Because he can bench press 225 a million times? LOL

We’ll see when Chicago gets embarrassed on MNF this year again.

I, for one, and putting this in the past. Thats because I think it is. “Make-believe” Lions fans want to keep poking fun at it, but a true Lions fan is looking forward to training camp and trying to forget about this.

If u ask me, the Jags have a bigger problem on their hands. A first round WR who they traded up for basically saying he is done drinking “for now”. But no…its much more fun to keep bringing this crap up. Give me a break.

Go Lions!!

Trust me, Fairley isn’t going anywhere. He’ll be a Lion for a long time. Can’t wait to see Suh and Farily beat up the NFC north this season.

Anyone saying Fairley “looks outstanding in practice” translates to stop messing up off the field you moron. Building him up….doesn’t matter how players look at this point because contact isn’t allowed. This is pretty much a useless evaluation. Paea will out-play this one hit wonder this season.

Based on his talent, Fairley could become a better defensive tackle than Ndamukong Suh. His potential is scary.

He just need to learn to crash cars while sober instead of driving drunk.

Buffalo fans like to think they have the best looking D-line in football? Those guys look like a bunch of male cheerleaders compared to the Lions D-line.

If they can stay on the field, nobody will be able to stop Fairly and Suh for the next ten years.

I constantly get ridiculed for it, but I really believe Nick Fairley is the best DT on this team, and I’m confident he’ll show that this year.

And I’m sure he’ll be great after he serves that 2 game suspension. God he better be good.
