With the Tennessee Titans losing to the Jets Sunday there cannot be a 16-0 team this season.
But there can be an 0-16 team, the 0-11 Detroit Lions.
The Lions remaining games:
* 11/27 vs Tennessee (10-1)
* 12/07 vs Minnesota (6-5)
* 12/14 @ Indianapolis (7-4)
* 12/21 vs New Orleans (5-5)
* 12/28 @ Green Bay (5-5)

New Orleans & Green Bay are playing each other on MNF on 11/24.

The question is - will the Detroit Lions end the season at 0-16?

well wih the titans having still such a great season. Indy having a good season and green bay, New Orleans, and Minnesota having decent, medeocre season (poor vikings)* I would say that with a record of nothing but losing it is able for them to win but likely it is not. Poor lions. They never really have a great season.

I hope not; I want them to win at least one (but probably because of strength of schedule, they need to win two) so the Chiefs at least have a chance at the #1 draft pick. Of course we have to do our job and lose the rest of our games.

I don't think the Chiefs will have any trouble losing the rest of their games!

I don't see the Lions winning any...

I don't think they will go 0-16. They can beat Tennessee off of their recent lose, Minnesota is a beatable team, New Orleans is a possibility, and they could be the spoiler for the NFC North. Any win will be hard fought and quite an accomplish. Good Luck to the Lions the rest of the season.

My guess is the lions will catch somebody asleep at the helm in the home stretch, they did a few years back in the same position. Having said that it will not be the Titans they they take a game from.

I wish the Chiefs had Detroit on the schedule this year! I doubt we could beat them.

That's true. My guess is the Vikings. They will have a black and blue game against another divisional co-leader & rival "da Bears" Sunday night. In the meantime the Lions will have 3 extra days to lick their wounds and man up for Minnesota. I'm gonna say they beat Minnesota at home only because the timing will be good.

I hope not. There are struggling team and I'm telling you, the last thing they needed this year was Daunte Culpepper. He's had his years way back to the golden days when he had Moss to throw to. Anyway, in my opinion they're only real chances of winning will be against the Vikings or the Saints. They won't beat the Colts @ Indiannapolis, and they won't be the Packers @ Lambeau.

Not a bad pick at all - the Lions gave the Vikings all they could handle but ended up losing 20-16.

That puts Detroit at 0-13. Next up: 12/14 - Detroit at Indianapolis.

Wow I just don't see them beating anyone else on the 2008 schedule. Maybe they could catch a banged up NO team off guard at Ford field? I doubt it though.

As an aside. The Lions have lost their Turkey Privileges. No more Lions games on Thanksgiving. Keep the Cowboys for tradition. Add the Patriots (they are pilgrim country and all)

      I don't think anyone will really care.   It's your call.  Just be consistent.

      I agree, until we are watching the 18th hole in the dark or waiting for the champion to finish and it's been 5+ hours

      Question for the group. The course I normally play at has 27 holes - 3 9s that they use to for 18 in the various combinations. Is it okay to declare* if I’m playing front or back when I play 9 on this course? I’m figuring I need to declare before I play a shot. *meaning just say to myself that this is the back 9. Curious what people think. Of course, my only holes left are 13 and 17, so I’m going to declare the back 9 for the rest of the year. Probably only one or two more rounds though.

      This is my opinion as well. I would love to see the LPGA take the lead on this.    This.

      I agree in general. The one way in which the viewer will notice the pace of play is just that "it's been an hour and Nelly Korda or Scottie Scheffler have only played four holes." Or if for some reason they show a lot of shots of players just standing around when they could be showing golf shots. But I think Andy Johnson said it most recently/best, playing fast is a skill, too. I would love for pro golfers to play faster. You'd see the players you want to see hit more shots in the same time than they do now. So I don't disagree with the pace of play stuff, and hope they can find ways to do it. Heck, the LPGA should leap at the chance to differentiate itself in this way, IMO. So: I stand by what I said in that the TV viewer really doesn't notice much about pace of play. It's rare when they do. I support increasing the pace of play wholeheartedly. But my top five reasons don't include TV ratings or viewership.
