Week Twelve: Detroit Lions (9-1) @ Indianapolis Colts (5-6)

[MichiganCardinal]

90 yards in 1:45 is light work. Take two knees to start the drive to make it more interesting.

[MichiganCardinal]

Looked like a high hit on Goff from the angles they've shown.

[Motown Bombers]

Not sure how that isn't roughing the passer.

[MichiganCardinal]

Sheesh, good defense by Raymond.

Curiously bad drive. They seemed content to go to the half.

[TP_Fan]

The one thing the Lions don’t do well is the 2 min drill. That was absolutely amateur hour on that drive.  Zero aggression.  Like they were playing to kill the clock instead putting their foot on the colts throat.  Same as the Texans game.

This is becoming a trend. They do not try to score in 2 min offense.

Surprised they didn’t go for Hail Mary with ARs arm and Kindle deep

[Tigeraholic1]

Lucky to have the lead. Gotta come out and score here.

[MichiganCardinal]

28-5 when leading at half is a crazy stat.

[TP_Fan]

That seemed like pretty obvious PI. 

[TP_Fan]

Doesn’t matter.  Safety blanket Tim Patrick strikes again. 

[TP_Fan]

Goff just cannot hit LaPorta. He was wide open again and Goff just missed him.  

[TP_Fan]

Jesus Christ.  So obvious on that play call.  Just take the two score lead.  Or run a better ****ing play. They look completely out of sorts today.  Back to back drives come up with zero points when you have a chance to create real separation.  That was so terrible. 

[MichiganCardinal]

Uncharacteristically ugly effort by the OL on 4/1.

Ugly game all around. May be looking ahead a bit to Thanksgiving.

The run up the middle works on 4th & 1 for this team 9/10 times. The OL just got gashed.

You could see it as they were lining up that it was gonna get blown up.

Just take a 2 score lead though.  I love the aggressive approach.  But when you have a chance to expand how many scores the game is, take it.

You Tube and You Tube TV have been a disaster the last 3 days.     Horrible picture quality, tons of drop outs.   I am guessing I am getting a price hike any minute now.

Mine has been fine. Reboot your router.

[MichiganCardinal]

Vildor is just a step behind on everything.

[TP_Fan]

And they still refuse to take Vildor off the field. This a dreadful coaching job today.  It hasn’t happened much but they are not reading the came well.

That's just not what they do though. They'll never kick a field goal in that situation. It's just not in their blood to get conservative.

[lordstanley]

Colts have a 2nd and 20. Have the Lions just where they want them. 

[MichiganCardinal]

That's a good call, but Vildor got lost in the sauce yet again.

[MichiganCardinal]

Call a draw again, pretty please.

[MichiganCardinal]

I hope Terrion Arnold is good to go by Thursday. I'll take his PI per game over getting burned over and over and over again.
