[quote=Dirtbag359;519083]How the hell did we get another game with Detroit? I swear the year we become good is the year we have a strength of schedule over .600.[/quote]Because we both finished last in our respective divisions. When we get better year in and year out our S.O.S. will be higher.

I'd like to see the Skins and Dallas. Getting tired of watching the Lions. They should rotate teams or leave Thanksgiving for the best two teams in the league from the previous regular season. Or a rematch from the previous Super Bowl would be interesting.

I hate playing on Thanksgiving. It is to distracting a day to focus in and then when they lose it ruins the whole holiday for me. And besides...this year was unusual...the Lions usually play their best game on Thanksgiving so it's the worst week of the year to play them. No thanks...

Let's be realistic here. We averaged like 14 pts. per game and lost to Cincy and the Rams and barely beat Detroit this year. By the way, Colt won't be starting anytime soon.

Thanksgiving falls on my birthday this year and I wouldn't mind seeing the Skins on TV. Win or lose it's better than those stupid parades.

Yeah, it would take about six games for us to get a total of 64 points.

Who knows about 2009, but when you can only manage one offensive touchdown against the Lions when they finished winless for the year, and when there appears to be no big changes with our offense, I'd say this year's turkey day contest is a toss-up.

[quote=WaldSkins;519273]Can anyone confirm this???[/quote]Confirmed. We know because Skins4L knows some Lions fans who said that we should play them on Thanksgiving this year. That's good enough for me!
