GREAT post Brad !!!

THIS:

....Playoff football is not a beauty contest. If running the ball can get you across the finish line, do it. We'd see Bill Belichick do it all the time, despite having Tom Brady. ....

KOC doesn't move to the short passing game when needed.....another thing that Tom Brady did also. Go 5 wide and get rid of the ball.
Against a team that loves to blitz we gave up on the run and went with Medium to deep passing routes most of the game.....we can blame the IOL but the scheme wasn't there either.

A good offensive game plan would have killed that Detroit defense last night.

Sam was off the whole game on everything but we were in a 1 pt game in the middle of the 3rd yet.

And then were were in a 22 point game on the way to a 31-9 trouncing.

Exactly. There's no moral victories on that nonsense put on display last night.

You guys flip faster than a coin. Did you cry last night? Grow up the playoffs haven't started yet. The road just got longer and tougher but my god....

Says the guy wrapped in the warmth of 'we were in a 1 pt game'.

LOL
The tough guy Bill is acting like a baby bawling all day after a loss and says that....quit projecting and stop crying.

Playoffs start next week.

Hey, since you are all about injury excuses what's your latest? And include the fact that near half of the Lions starters were on IR.

No excuses we got our ass kicked. We puckered up tight one game after winning 9....I am over it and on to the next. How about you?
Maybe you want to rub in Sam's performance on Brad a little more?

Yeah, a game for a playoff bye and HFA throughout the playoffs where we were crushed was merely "one test in the regular season"

Yep...again when do the playoffs start? Is our season officially over? Need another box of Kleenux?

So you have no excuses and have to attack others?

Says who? You forgot the shots you took and missed on.....Playoffs start next week don't they?

I'll post what I want to post. Deal with it. Enjoy your moral victory.

I guess i need to believe that KOC will magically start getting play calls in on time, clock management will be good, and Sam will be perfectly calm on Monday Night. I can try to work on that but it probably won't happen.

Such an ongoing problem. And not real helpful to your O-Line when the defense knows when you have to snap it.

I actually thought we got away with a couple Delay of Games last night.

Sam played average at LA last time. He and KOC will need to get it figured out and fast. Defense looked ready until they got worn down.

I absolutely agree with you on the defense. Nobody is going to keep the Lions down if their offense is a complete no show.

We have one of the older defenses in the NFL----especially on the back end (Gillmore 34, Griffen 29, Smith 35, Moureau 30). KOC needs to rely or somewhat use the run game and shorter passing against the teams that want to grind us out like Detroit.

Just weird how much he loves to pass but he didn't spread out the defense and use no huddle.....that confuses me more than the clock management TBH.

That's the secondary you get when you have no cap.

Based on last night, Kwesi is probably breathing easier as the decision to franchise/extend/etc Darnold was made for him. He's probably looking forward to spending the full $77 million on other areas of the team. Whether Darnold turns that around remains to be seen.

Yepper....that game cost him a ton of $$....his stock was rising big and then a stinker on a national broadcast. Another one next week.

Griffen played 18 snaps, Moreau hasn't been active for a month (and really only played in 3 games this year). We played 2 old guys (Smith, Gillmore) and 3 young ones (Murphy, Bynum, Metellus) in the backfield.

What I have read we are the 2nd oldest defense next to Miami.
