Why do you care...you arent a Lions fan now

Is that was he says now? It's much more quiet with him on ignore. Until somebody quotes him.

Good to know that FG's are automatic in your world.  

This is the NFL. If your kicker can't hit a 45 yarder then what the **** are you employing him for. Give me a break

[Motown Bombers]

This feels like the 2006 World Series. Overachieving team and it was within reach but errors by the pitchers.

So much nicer in here with out the attention seeking childish troll.

He's not really a troll, more like a whiney little beech.

I think the troll is the equivalent of a griefer in a kid’s online game

I don't agree, even a little bit. This was the most fun I've had following this team in my life. And it's been since the late 60's. Great, great season. Yes, bad loss to end it but nobody can take away our historic run.

I need time to come around on this my friend, this one hurts really bad in the moment. I'm sure you understand.

I don't think I can stomach another KC Super Bowl win. Gotta root for the team that just beat us

 

[Shinzaki]

Disappointing ending...the plays were there...they just didn't make them.  

[Mr.TaterSalad]

This really stings. This was a great season, but those coaching decision sting.

A Lion area of weakness. It will be corrected this off-season. 

[RandyMarsh]

Dropped passes(including a critical 4th down and 3rd down conversion), dropped INT(that directly led to a TD), missed tackles on would be sacks, a critical Gibbs fumble and the questionable 4th down attempts that failed. Just a disastrous second half and such a heartbreaking way to end an otherwise unbelievable season.

I'll go ahead and side with the coach who had us in the title game over some nobody online.  But hey, keep thinking you know more about coaching an NFL team, I don't really care. 

I love Campbell but it doesn't mean that he should be above criticism. Sorry if that bothers you but this is a message board so we're all allowed opinions here.

The drops killed us...and that lucky bounce off the blown OPI call

Same ones he made all season. Live by them, die by them. He could have kicked and tied the game in Dallas too. Gambling Dan....

Yeah probably should've gone for at least one of those FGs. Sometimes Campbell blurs that line between aggressive and foolish.

Still love the guy though

 

[lordstanley]

Still the most thrilling sports event and environment I’ve ever been part of. Haven’t read comments yet! 

[MichiganCardinal]

Without the hurt, the fun wouldn’t be worth it.

I’m gonna take a break. See y’all soon.

I would have triec the FG on the 2nd one.  Pulling even would have been huge

Every risk doesn't work out every time. He goes for more 4th downs than anyone in the NFL.

[CMRivdogs]

Good news is no more TP playing GM and Coach on line

[Motor City Sonics]

The Troll is going to troll.   Yeah, fire everyone. 

It hurt when the Pistons lost to the Celtics and Lakers

It hurt when the Red Wings lost to the Devils and Avalanche

This is the beginning. 

I have said this in this playoff run.   This team is not even at it's peak yet.  

San Fran went through this the last two years too.

This team is going to be a Super Bowl favorite for the next 3 years.

He coulda gone for the TD at the end of the 1st half instead of kicking a FG.

Yes. No guarantee on a 48 yard FG and MCDC has relied on his best players on 4th down all year. Reynolds should have caught two balls that hit him in the hands.

I don't think he'll throw the kicker under the bus but like I said before I just don't think he has confidence in him outside of say 30 or 35 yards. That may or may not be fair to Badgley but I just think if we had a kicking game he had confidence in he would've kicked them.
