He wanted to stay in but was forced by the refs and trainers to go off. I doubt it’s IR worthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sagnam Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 The Lions are overrated! That’s another first for this franchise in a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
number20 Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 Can't remember seeing this team so bad in the Red Zone. Really cost them the game. At least it wasn't to a division opponent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TP_Fan Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 2 minutes ago, MichiganCardinal said: And I don’t understand the play calling to end the game. You’re gifted 40 seconds and you don’t make a single pass beyond ten yards?! The first play should have been an immediate shot. They designed up a 12 yard pass to the middle of the field that forced them to use their TO. Today was simply bad coaching. It’s more of the same from Ben Johnson. Last week was ugly too.

This is why you are a total joke. Stuff like this. Go take a ****ing shower or something and get over yourself. Jesus, it's 1 game, man.

Mr.TaterSalad Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 I cannot fathom what was going through Todd Bowles head? We were gifted a chance and coaching failed this team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichiganCardinal Posted September 15 Author Share Posted September 15 Bad games can happen. But this ain’t baseball. You don’t get to have bad months. These are the games you look at when you and the Niners are both 10-4 going into Monday Night in their place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason_R Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 Hey, they didn’t get whupped like the Cowboys today. They were on their heels all day after the two awful PI calls. Eventually the refs will stop picking on Arnold. Offense still is out of sync but it will get there. Hutch has found a new gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYLion Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 I'm on Team TP today. Ben Johnson was absolute poop and Goff but that's obvious. Whatever. 1-1, not the end of the world but there's a lot of stuff to clean up and I'll say for the millionth time that they miss Josh Reynolds or somebody to fill that role. They have zero big bodied receivers that can make a 50/50 catch, it's a problem on 3rd downs and in the Red Zone in particular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They played horribly and still should have won if not for coaching blunders. The play calling is bad though. And if you fancy yourself a Super Bowl caliber offense, you don’t tolerate that for much longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 6-11 comment is obviously idiotic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.TaterSalad Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 Did Jack Campbell do anything of note today? He looks like a wasted first round pick thus far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motor City Sonics Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 Todd Bowles almost gifted us a win and if I was Tampa's owner, I'd have fired him if the Lions had won. Anyway. Some folks are being totally silly........ Ravens are 0-2. 49ers just lost to Sam Darnold. New Orleans is going undefeated and Cowboys fans are in a far worse state than Lions fans this afternoon It's a parity-based league with lots of ebbs and flows. To stupidly say the Lions are 6-11 shows you know NOTHING about this game. The offense is out of sorts and I have total faith they'll fix it and fix it soon. They do need a big-bodied WR, though. A first down/red zone target. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.TaterSalad Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 I thought Terrion Arnold again looked a bit like a lost rookie out there. It's only two games and he's a rookie, so it's not world's end by any means. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RatkoVarda Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 with 2 starting DTs out, the OL should have been able to control this game, instead they got beat time and time again; something is missing and I cannot believe it is Josh Reynolds; the OT drive against the Rams was one of the few times they looked like last year's team 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motor City Sonics Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 (edited) TP: Seasons over.......Baker dropped the big one Dan Campbell: OVER? DID YOU SAY OVER? NOTHING IS OVER UNTIL WE DECIDED IT IS. WAS IT OVER WHEN THE KANSAS CITY ROYALS LOST THEIR HOME OPENER TO THE LIONS ON THURSDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL? Boon: Royals? Otter: Forget it, he's rolling Dan Campbell: HELL NO, AND IT AIN'T OVER NOW. CAUSE WHEN THE GOIN' GETS TOUGH, THE TOUGH GET GOING, WHO'S WITH ME, LETS GO AAAAAAAAAAAAA What the **** happened to the Lions I used to know? Where's the spirit? WHERE'S THE GUTS, HUH? This could be the greatest season of our lives and you're gonna let it be the worst.. "oh, we're afraid to go with you coach, we might lose again" WELL JUST KISS MY ASS FROM NOW ON. NOT ME, I'M NOT GONNA TAKE THIS ARIZONA? THEY'RE A DEAD MAN SEATTLE? DEAD ! THE DALLAS COWBOYS?............ Otter: DEAD!. Coach is right, Psychotic, but absolutely right! We gotta take these bastards. Now, we could fight 'em with conventional weapons, but that could take years and cost millions of lives. No, no, in this case, we have to go all out. I think THIS SITUATION ABSOLUTELY REQUIRES, A REALLY FUTILE AND STUPID GAMEPLAN BE DONE ON SOMEBODY'S PART Campbell: And we're just the guys to do it ! Boon: Let's Do It. Campell: LET'S DO IT .........GO.............GO..............GO............GO !!!!!!!!!!!!
