And then a throw that guaranteed to end the game.

Some dumb playcalls and poor execution on a few plays cost us the game.

Couldn't even get a Hail Mary off...

All in all, competitive. Both sides with penalties.

IOL HAS to be seriously addressed this offseason. And we need CBs that don't ride the coattails of the pass rush.

Not being able to get off a Hail Mary perfectly fits.

Yup. Same team as always. It will never change. Now we'll bring back Hockenson only to lose on Thursday.

This game is on the coaches.

KOC had no game plan.

The Lions sliced and diced Flores' blitzes and he couldn't adjust.

Beyond that, Darnold looked like a dear in the headlights. The defense couldn't make routine tackles all day.

Seems right the season will reflect our games. Come out hot, stop punching.

The D has real talent on the Edge. DL, not so much. CB, not so much. S, meh.

Smoke & mirrors being exposed earlier this year.

Why is it always smoke and mirrors with this team?

I have a feeling we lay an egg on Thursday too. After a hard fought loss today.

I wasn't thrilled with Flores by any means but you knew Detroit was going to score a decent amount of points. KOC, on the other hand, dialed in a whopping 22 at home after the bye week. He continues to have huge parts of the game where his offense shits the sheets.

The 2 point conversion call and that last series of calls were brutal. He gifted them a chance to win it. The only time he got creative it was the worst time and just a terrible "trick" play. I'm leaning we need a new play caller next year if we're going to be serious.

Yep. We have some holes but DET offense is loaded at every position except Glasgow.

If we believe we can make a run, go get Jeffrey Simmons. Levis isn't the answer and they will be looking for draft capital. We would have to give up 1st rounder and probably get a 3rd rounder back. Simmons and 3rd for 1st rounder.

We definitely need a piece or 2 on the DL

From eading the posts here, it is time to move on to Mullens and KOC is also on the hot seat.

KOC has a lot to still prove and Darnold is getting worse by the day.

If we don't get moved back 5 yards, we kick it.
