I really hope Dan Campbell begins to learn. Between his decisions and Goffs sheer awfulness the lions have a tough road ahead of them.  The coaching hasn’t improved from Patricia.  It’s heartbreaking. 

lol.

all i need from you is to blame the refs and i hit tp bingo!  🙂

I hope the Lions get a late TD. Lose by 3 points when they should have kicked a FG....twice

[Sports_Freak]

Oh well, line up offside...same old Lions.

So we face a Bears team that looks awful .  We think This Is The Week...................so with that in mind

Bears 24. Lions 13

You gotta give me a little credit here.   

[Sports_Freak]

13-4 is still possible. 😅😅

[TP_Fan]

Looks like an Achilles for Okwara.  These injuries are devastating.  Not only do you lose them for the season, but in football that’s close to a career ended.  

[Motown Bombers]

This feels like the worst game of the season. The previous three games they seemed to get better but this one feels like a dud. Four trips down inside the 10 and zero points. 

[Sports_Freak]

Well, at least a few teams won their first games today. #1 pick, here we come.

[buddha]

the lions and the jags are now the only winless teams in the league.

2 Achilles in the 1st 4 weeks? That is lion's luck for sure.

most of us knew that before the season started...

Holmes was willing to pass on Fields and Jones so there is a chance he wasn't certain yet.

[TP_Fan]

Stafford and Rams spanked by the Cards.  Lions draft position had a great day. 

[Motown Bombers]

The Cardinals may be for real. 

[Jason_R]

I thought Goff might be OK. He’s worse than I thought possible. 

[Kamakzie]

Yeah Goff stinks.

[VegasTiger]

I haven't been reading through the threads but, has anyone mentioned that the problem probably isn't the uniforms? Feels like a weekly walk of shame.

[John_Brian_K]

Campbell will be fine.  Coaching with the talent he has.  I really like going for it on 4th down though.  I would have preferred runs as opposed to passes, but other than that we have been fairly competitive in these games and almost one against a really good team with practice squad guys all over our roster...he is not the problem.  Not even close.

My feeling as well.  Just looked awful out there, making so many mistakes.  Honestly, it felt like Lions were looking past this game, just assuming this was a W and don't worry 'about it.

[RedRamage]

Also, while I love the aggressive play on 4th downs generally... I think we were a little too aggressive this game.  There is a time and a place, but... there's also times when the FG or punt is a better idea.

[Motown Bombers]

Urban Meyer is turning into a disaster. 

 

[Motor City Sonics]

We've always known Urban was dirty, but in a different way. 

He is a disaster.   Should have stayed retired from coaching. 

He'll probably be the USC coach next year after all.

i doubt the lions look past anyone, they're just not a good team and their best players are hurt.  they already had a terrible secondary and then two of their three starting corners got injured.  they had a decent d line and then okwara and flowers are injured.  hey, remember deshawn hand?  yeah, me neither.

jaime collins sucked and then quit trying.  barnes might be a nice player, but he's not very good right now.  jalen reeves maybin might be their best linebacker and he's a career special teamer.  

not only are they untalented, the good players they do have are hurt.  its going to be a long season for them.

it was disappointing in that they got worked by a terrible offense with a bad qb, but when you have zero pressure on an nfl qb against the worst secondary in the league, youre gonna lose.

mcneill and onzuwurike have been disappointments to me.  no pressure from them at all.

I was holding out hope Goff could hold down the fort until the rest of the team was built, but watching yesterday it looked to me like he gets a little deer in the headlights look in his eyes.  That can't be good.
