All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
Do you think JP will able throw 271 yards Vs LionS
Re: Do you think JP will able throw 271 yards Vs LionS
I just hope we win. I seem to remember a game not to long ago he got over 300 yards and Willis got over 150 and we still lost. I'd take wins over yards. It would be nice to win a couple in a row, and end the win, loss rollercoaster.
Re: Do you think JP will able throw 271 yards Vs LionS
Well even if we win Sunday, we would be .500 going into our home game with the Patsies. They are playing pretty good right about now. But I would be satisfied with 3-4 going into our bye. We have some very winnable games later on in the season. of course beating NE would be awesome. 4-3 at the break? Nice!

I don't give a damn if he throws for 150 if we win. Last time I checked WINNING is the thing, not stats.
against the Dolphins he had something pathetic like 89 yards, but we won so who gives a ****? The goal is to win games, not set passing records or get JP into the Pro Bowl.

Exactly. BTW who has a better record THIS season, JP or Big Ben? Nuff said.
Re: Do you think JP will able throw 271 yards Vs LionS
Winning may be the only thing that matters, but how to go about getting that win is the question – and this thread actually brings up a good point.
Here are the Lions 2006 team defensive passing rankings:
Opposing QB completion % = 72.4 (worst in NFL) Opposing QB yards/game = 265.8 = (3rd worst in NFL) Passing TD’s given up = 11 (worst in NFL) Interceptions = 1 (tied for worst in NFL) Sacks = 6 (tied for 3rd worst in NFL)
The Lions rush defense gives up a respectable 96.2 yards/game. So, I don’t care if he throws for 271 or not, and I'd love to run Willis all day for the win. But the Bills game plan going into this one will probably have something to do with going after that porous secondary, and that’s about the yardage that would indicate them doing a good job of it.

and they understand they suck and will prepare for JP throwing.

Good post but one thing that makes me nervous: think back to the NE game. Their secondary was banged up to all hell and we STILL didn't take a shot down the field at all. And the NE game isn't the only time the Bills have done this. I just hope the coaches wake up and try to exploit this weakness in the Lions, and I hope the OL can give JP enough time to heave a few dow the field.
