Gregg Rosenthal of NFL.com sent out a simple tweet Tuesday that read, "The Lions roster looks worse the more you look at it."
The Lions roster looks worse the more you look at it.

It's a harmless tweet, just an NFL analyst giving his opinion on the Lions roster months before the first snap in the first preseason game.
The Detroit Lions Twitter account saw the tweet and responded in one of the more clever ways possible. They used a GIF from the movie "Anchorman" showing Will Ferrell's character saying "Well, agree to disagree."

Say what you want about the Lions and how you think they will do this season, I thought it was a great response. Plus "Anchorman" is a movie I will watch every time it's on TV.
Rosenthal did expand on his reasoning for saying the roster doesn't look that great. "Lions have shaky starters at DE, LB, S, CB. Not much depth everywhere and what position groups are above average?"
