i dont follow gridiron in any way,shape or form,scalabrine...just watching from the sidelines and playing devils advocate here a bit.....but doesnt detroit have a more talented,well-rounded(tho limited offensively to be fair)team than they have had at almost any time in their history??thereby making their losing history a moot point to at least some degree??
is it correct to say that??
i fully understand that often you are wat you believe yourself to be in sports and teams can of course perpetuate a pedigree/identity that has been built over a long established past....but a big infusion of on field talent clearly is a big game-changer,right??...i mean thats primarily wat CREATES the losing history-the talent/or lack thereof that goes out on the field and LOSES....(connected intrinsically with poor management/administration/personnel decision-making etc..)
to me its a bit like writing off the sacramento kings when they were embarking upon the webber/bibby/stojakovic era...former perrenial losers and league door-mats suddenly come good once they have the TALENT to throw out there on the court...anyone fading them on their first few playoff series based on their wretched past would have taken a beating.....strangely enuff history may repeat in the near future with this demarcus cousins-led squad.
i know this post doesnt address all of your points but it is the main one as i see it-the "aura" or "historical spirit" of a team.
or do you not actually see this lions team as being much of an up-grade from years past in terms of pure talent/coaching??
in any case its an interesting game that perhaps looks volatile given sum really awesome respectable guys here loving detroit(amd,suuma,altablock),and other good guys(you,st2ee and beginnerboy) convinced that,at the very least,dallas will no way no how lose the game outright and probably cover.
look forward to your response and sorry if i sound like an ignoramus

I actually implied they were quite dissimilar. Read again. You only have the evidence IN PRINT.
