Sunday was all-around bad as far as the Detroit Lions are concerned. The defense got demolished. Any playoff hopes (and Matthew Stafford‘s right hand) came close to getting demolished. The Silverdome didn’t get demolished.
It may feel like all is lost at this point, but my mantra as far as post-season dreams are concerned is, “until that 8th loss, you still have a chance”. If I’m choosing to follow my own mantra, that means at least another two weeks until I’ll be put out of my misery. Two more weeks before I need to once again make peace with being a fully-grown adult and still never seeing a Lions playoff win.
