It was an impressive play. You don’t score a goal like that by accident. Edit: Also the assist. Great vision and patience with the puck. Knew what he was doing to draw defense and make space for the shooter. And executed a perfect pass. He demonstrated a lot as a playmaker and a finisher.

I do sometimes wonder if they keep certain tactics in their back pocket for teams like KC and Philly that they are likely to see again in the postseason.

Detroit has lost to both of last year’s Super Bowl contenders and to two division rivals. Not great but not the end of the world. The defense looks good and will still get multiple starters back before the end of the season. The offense just needs to go on a heater.

It was a disappointing offensive performance — the worst we’ve seen since the Baltimore debacle — but they gave up just 16 points to the defending champion on their home field. Again, it was a hell of a bad time to be without your starting guard and pro bowl TE. Now is time to get some reps for TeSlaa. He has ridiculous athletic ability but needs to earn trust from Goff. He could be another weapon in the postseason, which this team will make.

Yes, the sky is not falling. The defense played great. Weather conditions were bad for throwing the ball, as, obviously, were the conditions of the IOL. The team will get healthier and should have its full complement of players going into the playoffs.

Rough night to be without a starting guard and pro bowl TE.

Pathetic. Does anyone have some batteries?

If everyone just mutes him it’s like he’s in a rubber room.

Hurts is only 14/28 tonight. It is not a great night for passing, but Goff is clearly rattled.

Two plays with three yards to gain and they pass on both. I don’t understand.

How do you not run on 3rd and 3!?!

This game might require a strip sack to turn our way.

That play might be the dagger.

Hell of an open field run.

Finally a false start.

Well, on the second drop back Goff got his pass tipped and picked off. I can understand why they wanted to button it up. I didn’t like that two-play sequence after Ratledge came out. Overall, I think they believe they have more offense than Philly so they want to keep it close and give Philly a chance to lose it before opening up the passing game.

Well, at least we know to avoid FG attempts more than 40 yards.

Jaymo was made for games like this. Instant offense.

Two plays in a row and they run behind their replacement guards. 💀

Crush the can. Barnes spying.

McNeil at Right DE.

He got sacked and immediately pointed to his head, begging for a flag. It almost seemed like he considered running then decided just to eat it and hope the refs bailed him out.

He is not a miss, but there is a lot of talent ahead of him. With Laporta out I assume he will get much more playing time the next few games.
