weird Asian candy posted:Tough loss and i didnt mean to minimize Detroit more than I meant to poo poo on my dumb team. No worries & TY, you're fine, I'm just tired of the Lions being the team that's on the losing end of a bullshit game-ending shenanigans. I mean that's part of being a Lions fan I guess but the Calvin Johnson rule was tough and this was even shitter, somehow

DeShaun Watson looked fantastic against the Patriots defense and I really like what rookie RB D'onta Foreman did as well. Bill O really screwed himself with conservative play calling in 2 critical spots but the rest of the game he was pretty decent. That loving defense is a crime and they started out last year looking awful as well and those issues look very similar to now. If the defense can regain its second half of the 2016 season form again this offense will definitely do much better than last years offense did.

I'm glad I slept through most of the bears game and also that Glennon sucked but I'm not happy john fox got to have a win to try to keep his horrible job where he teaches players to stop running at the 15 yard line then false start on untimed downs

I'm honestly less angry about the result of the Lions game than I probably should be, if only because I went into the game expecting to lose and watched most of the game expecting us to lose. It's a loving garbage loss, for sure, but at the same time, I can't help but feel optimistic that the Lions went the distance with one of the best teams in the league, and came within literal inches of winning. Some thoughts: -Boy howdy did the offense not look great for most of the game. Early on a lot of Stafford's passes were off, the running game was inconsistent (Though certainly better than last week), and Ebron. Ebron. How the hell that guy manages to drop so many passes that hit him in the loving hands, I don't know. He had multiple chances to contribute in major ways to a Lions victory, and blew almost all of them. That poo poo's just inexcusable, especially when this was supposed to be his year to bust out. -The offensive line, however, looked a lot better than I thought they were going to. They still gave up a ton of pressure on Stafford, and committed some really fuckin' bad penalties, but considering I was considering the entire left side of the line to collapse in the aftermath of Swanson being out, they didn't do nearly as badly as I expected they would. -Without Davis the defense looked absolutely horrific. The Falcons were able to run all over the Lions for the vast majority of the game, to the point that only two of the Falcons' drives actually ended in punts. The only real positive thing to come out of their performance today were Quin and Slay's interceptions, each one of which were absolutely critical for keeping the Lions in the game. The game badly emphasized just how crucial Davis is to the defense, and I'm fervently hoping he'll be back on the field next week. -There were multiple situations on 4th and short that I felt Caldwell should've gone for it, and not just because I consider punting to be moral cowardice. The Lions only scored one offensive touchdown, and if any of the Lions' four field goals had been touchdowns instead the game could've gone to overtime. I generally like Caldwell, but I'd put at least some of the blame for the loss today on playing too conservatively against one of the best offenses in the league. VJeff posted:https://twitter.com/Lions/status/912074133219012608 Yeah, arguing that the Lions couldn't have gotten a play off anyway is ridiculous, since they deliberately train for these situations and have proven their capability to get plays off that quickly in the past.

How is it a professional sporting franchise worth about a billion dollars is too dumb to understand you need to protect your qb?

The Lions got hosed. It looked like a good TD as it was, and to then have that 10 second runoff was horseshit. Pretty surprised the Bills won especially with Denver shutting down the run. Bills defense is much improved even with the loss of Gilmore.

If the defense can regain its second half of the 2016 season form again this offense will definitely do much better than last years offense did. I don't think this defense has the talent last year's did - Bouye and Demps were both big contributers in the secondary, losing them is a huge downgrade. Last year we benched Rahim Moore and poo poo came together, but I don't know that anyone warming the bench behind Cory Moore would be an upgrade. Maybe if Kevin Johnson wasn't the broken reincarnation of Bob Sanders, but nothing to be done for it. God that front seven is so loving nasty though.

Also yeah I do feel a lot less enthusiasm for this season. Being constantly reminded of this being a bloodsport, awful offensive line play and I guess fatigue is setting in. 3 years ago people wouldn't stop talking about the Seahawks, and you were shunned if you didn't wear a jersey on blue Friday. Today I rarely hear talk about the Seahawks around Seattle, and no one gives a poo poo about blue Friday anymore.
