It was the wrong call. Yes, he got lucky the Vikings didn't convert the extra play into a TD. So we'll give Campbell credit that Zimmer is almost as bad as he is.

gehringer_2 Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 (edited) Tua tearing it up again. Maybe someone should have made Miami a better offer early in the season when he was in the doghouse.

He didn't intend them to get a first down then stop them later. He called it to stop them on that set of downs and it failed. Otherwise he would have called one after the Jefferson passes. He got lucky that the Vikings are stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TP_Fan Posted December 5, 2021 Author Share Posted December 5, 2021 My god Jared Goff. He is a damn statue back there. Great adjustments out of halftime Campbell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TP_Fan Posted December 5, 2021 Author Share Posted December 5, 2021 We are definitely losing this game. Campbell and Goff came out of the half with exactly zero adjustments and Vikings take full advantage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motown Bombers Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 If Vikings converted that 2 point conversion, it would have been a tie game if Campbell didn't call a timeout and get an extra score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
romad1 Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 I've de-Lions sufficiently to view this abstractly. Dan Campbell is learning still. He has a lot more learning to do. He could use a bench coach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course we would be up 4 in that scenario if he had called another and we scored a TD rather than kicking a FG on 3rd down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TP_Fan Posted December 5, 2021 Author Share Posted December 5, 2021 3rd and 10, might as well run it. Campbell tries so hard not to lose that the lions end up losing. 0-10-1 and you’re out here handing the damn ball off. Coach to win. Stop coaching to not lose.

The Vikings got the first down immediately after the timeout. It made it a wrong decision right then and there. Its like driving your car into a lake and arguing it was the right decision because you were going swimming anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone else has agreed he lucked into a positive result. He called a timeout for the other team earlier in the season and it led to a TD that cost us a game. Poor clock management and poor in-game management. Just a below average coach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
