I never, at any point, expected them to go 15-2. Losses happen in the NFL.

You can’t point to the last 4 weeks and just say, it’s one of those games.  They have been horrid defensively and their last 3 home games have been nothing but turnovers and blunders.  It’s really bad football right now.  They are worse than what their record states. That’s fortunate. It is. But things have to change. You can’t win with this level of football.

but not to a 4-6 team with half their starters out at home.  

Happens to everyone.  The Eagles lost to the Zach Wilson Jets.

Where's Levi? Where's Josh Paschal? Where's Iffy Melifonwu Where's Brodric Martin?

Where's the free agents they signed? Oh yeah, injured. We'll stock up on defense this offseason.

I’m not sure what choice they had. All our backups suck.

Kayode is looking good. It’s like a different offense this half. 

[sagnam]

But the Lions can’t keep putting themselves into a deep hole and count on coming back.

[TP_Fan]

The coaching apologists are something else.  The team is obviously unprepared. Have been for nearly 2 months.  

[Mr.TaterSalad]

What's the deepest past we've attempted today?

[TP_Fan]

Stop with these out throws Ben.  Throw it down field.

Agreed. I mean, how many of us expected us to be 8-2 after 10 games? Record is deceiving. 

[sagnam]

They need this 4th down.

[Mr.TaterSalad]

Now is when you go for it 

[ben9753]

Pixie dust seems to have run out. Oh well

[TP_Fan]

3rd and 12, screen play.  My god with these play calls.  Now Ben Johnson is trying to prove he is worse than Glenn. 

[Mr.TaterSalad]

LOL WHATEVER

[sagnam]

Taking way too long on 4th downs.

[KL2]

Did we trade our Oline for Michigan State's?

[TP_Fan]

Ben Johnson and Jarod Goff are both bums. 

[ben9753]

Has ever been a more anticlimactic game?

[Kamakzie]

Turkey drop has begun..

[MichiganCardinal]

If it was “just one of those game” I wouldn’t be upset. This is four in a row they’ve looked terrible.

[TP_Fan]

All of those play calls were atrocious.  Every coach has done a horrible job today.  We are being outclassed by the packers coaching staff.

As an aside, zero chance Goff should get a contract. Fitz was right, poor man’s Matt Ryan.  Start over with hendon next year.   Goff has a noodle arm and throws ducks.

Me neither. But I never expected back-to-back-to-back weeks where they look as illprepared and flat as this.

Wait until we play in New Orleans,  in Dallas and in Minnesota. Our 4-1 road record is at risk.

Yep, the Baltimore blowout was fine. It’s everything after the Raiders game that has been so worrying. 

[TP_Fan]

Raymond was wide open. Goff just refused to throw the ball. Bum. 

[TP_Fan]

The lions will not win this division.  I’d bet $1000 on it.
