Kickoff at 7:30

Looking forward to seeing Dalton, Green, Simpson, Shipley, Gresham and how Gruden will run this new offense...

Prettty bad.

Dalton had an career INT and Green had a career tackle before they had a completion or a reception respectively. And the Lions scored twice before Cincis offense hit the field.

Benson has looked pretty good though

Yup he was terrible in college. Only helped lead TCU to a ton of victories, an undefeated season, and ended up being a 2nd round pick

Lions are going to be solid. Schwartz does a good job. I have really been impressed with Aaron Brown, that little RB for the Lions. He is quick

You Just have to take my words and twist it into extreme fabrication? I said "he didn't look that great" your pee-brain translated that into "he was terrible" - You need some type of counseling if this is how your brain works.

"I didn't think he looked that great in college" sounds to me like you didnt think he is a very good quarterback...I think pretty much anyone would think that way and wouldnt be twisting your words. He was a really good QB in college and happened to beat Wisconsin last year in a BCS bowl.

Who looked "great" to you in college football last year besides Luck and Newton at the QB position? Just curious?

How many TCU games did you watch?

So let me get this straight "I didn't think he looked that great" = "he looked terrible"
He was a really good QB in college and happened to beat Wisconsin last year in a BCS bowl.
Krenzel won a national championship since he did that is he a HOF in the NFL?

Don't get me wrong, Dalton was a very good college, but just like He, Locker, and the guy the Vikings drafted, I think they aren't gonna be highly successful or just don't translate well in the NFL.

Not trying to be a troll.. I don't think Colt Mccoy is going to be great either (in the NFL)

I watched them against SMU, Wisconsin, and in January against Boise.

NVM - he's the next Peyton Manning!

Not saying you should.. Just giving my humble opinion. I'm not being looked at from the NFL offices like you are as a potential wonder-boy talent scout.

I still remember thinking Byron Leftwich would be way better than Carson Palmer, so I really don't know.

You said he didn't look that "great" in college. I was telling you that you were flat out wrong in your assessment. It is one thing to predict his future success in the NFL (he might not be good, I don't know) but to say he wasn't a great college QB is just kind of laughable. And to say that after watching 3 games this past season makes the statement even funnier.

So you watched from beginning to end, more than 3 TCU games this year? If so, which? Also, you thought he was "GREAT" Since he was so great, were you angry that he wasn't invited to NEW YORK for the Heisman announcement?

Hell, I didn't think Locker looked "that great" either. yet, he was a top 15 pick. I didn't think hardly anyone looked "that great"

The conclusion is this, "You are emotionally attached and my opinion pissed you off"

I never said he was terrible. Thought he was pretty good.

Actually, I watched multiple TCU games. They were a top program this past season, so naturally I watched them play. But no I wasn't upset that he was not invited to the Heisman stuff? You can be a good college player and not get invited to the Heisman ceremony.

And no I'm not emotionally attached to Dalton and no you did not make me mad. Like I said, the fact that you thought he wasn't great because you happened to watch 3 games this past season made me laugh.
