Summary
Big Sal is fired up from the recliner in Peshtigo and he's not buying a single word of this "Lions are decaying" narrative. He lays it out plain and simple — Detroit isn't falling apart because they were never constructed properly to begin with. It's the same loud, flashy outfit that dominates highlight reels in October and vanishes the second real football shows up in January.
In this no-holds-barred rant, Big Sal covers:
- Why labeling it "decay" is actually too generous for a franchise that's shown the exact same flaws year after year
- How the national media keeps doing the Lions' heavy lifting by pretending they were ever legitimate contenders
- The uncomfortable truth that Green Bay has always been the team that shows up and delivers when the stakes are highest in the NFC North
- His straight-up prediction that the Lions will once again finish behind the Packers in the division standings
