Lions postgame
 

Well I didn’t get to watch 80% of this game and I’m glad I didn’t.

Wentz and the O scored 27 and had 400 yards off offense.

This defense is absolutely trash folks.

It’s gonna be a long year

Garbage time stats.
Wentz was Wentz.
ST is the worst I’ve seen. They can’t even down a punt properly.
Bad across the board.

Next week is a huge game. It’s the first division game at home against the media darling

I can’t believe how unprepared Ron had this team today

For god sakes sign Blake Martinez. MAYO? Jfc he wouldn’t be on any other team except ours

Just not impressed with the secondary…they guys aren’t getting it.

Someone needs to call out Ron’s bullshit and hammer this defense he built

Re: Lions postgame
 

Rivera is an embarrassment. He is absolutely clueless about how to construct a defense, I can't trust him on anything else.

You guys/gals are absolute lifesavers for my fandom of this team. It would absolutely be too much to handle alone. Band of brothers/sisters.

Re: Lions postgame
 

F the defense. Fix the o-line give Wentz some time and it is a moot point. I couldn't watch the entire game but the three "drives" I saw by our O there was no time to have plays develop before Aidan Hutchinson was big spooning Wentz. Got to keep that D off the field, if they haven't fixed it by now they won't.

Re: Lions postgame
 

Mayo, Bostic, Jackson don’t belong in an NFL team. Letting Settle walk was the stupidest move of the off-season.

It's kinda obvious the players have never bought into JDR's defense. It shows.

True. Some of these guys weren't even born the last time a JDR type defense was relevant.

Well in JDRs defense if we had 2022 version of Ray Lewis, Jamie Shaper, Peter Boulware our defense would be relevant too

Re: Lions postgame
 

On a positive it looks like they hit in Dotson. He looks like a future star. I remember him abusing Maryland last year and wondering if he was that good or was MD that bad. He is that good. He plays bigger than his size. Great leaping ability, great hands, great balls skills. The sky looks like the limit for him.

Flowers and Martinez are still out there…. Not to overreact but sheesh.

A good friend who’s a long suffering Lions fan reached out to console me. That really says it all.

Looks like robinson may see action in week 5. Hopefully that bolsters the run. Unfortunately....that doesntbhelp our abysmal defense. Past the front line we have basically nothing. The lions put up 36.

Let me repeat that for the people in the back. The lions....led by Jared Goff....put up 36 pts.
Just let that settle for a minute.

Actually, a better run game will help our D stay off the field. Of course, we still won time of possession today and got thumped.

TOP only matters if we can stop them. If they score every time we give them the ball, it doesn't matter how long our offense is on the field. Esp if we put up a giant goose egg in a half.

Re: Lions postgame
 

Fair point. And they had 191 yards rushing. That’s appalling.

Re: Lions postgame
 

Watched the second half in condensed mode.

I know public transportation isn't always state of the art in the US, but to have your offense show up late and be unable to suit up before half time was a bummer...
Also hurt us that the defense had to leave just before the 4th quarter... but I understand you don't want to get stuck in traffic and all.

Oh, and did somebody roast Ron for the stupidest "go for 2" call in the history of the game ?

Looks like the players may slowly be turning on JDR

JDR sucking ass is totally believable. And that's on Rivera keeping him around. I don't always agree with Turner, but at least there is a chance of growth.

Rivera and JDR are old dinosaurs.

Wentz hasnt been the problem

The problem is the defense and the coaching staff

The thing is they're dinosaurs who are incapable or too stubborn to change.

Who gives a shit, he still plays like a limp dick. Over throws receivers, holds on to the ball and sometimes is not aware of surroundings. Dotson, Samuel and McLaurin are making him look good.

Exactly! You can’t have 20% bad plays at QB no matter how good the other plays are.


This team is lost with Rivera

Re: Lions postgame
 

Mayo
Bostic
McCain
Jackson

Are someone elses trash we picked, all 4 suck and don’t belong in this roster. Go get Blake Martinez, play Holmes and Castro-Fields, I bet they are better than Jackson and McCain.

We are going to have to be like the Saints of the past, score 30 plus and hope to stop the opponents to 27

Agree. Don't over think it, hire Fangio.

At this point, give Wade a call.

Won't happen though. Rivera is a defensive guy and wouldn't bring in another credible guy to fix it from the outside.

They have to know how bad it is, wonder how much autonomy JDR actually has running the defense. If it's his show, firing him maybe a solution. If he is following Ron's orders, then firing him wouldn't make any difference with Ron still calling the shots.

Really curious about JDR roasting Jamin Davis in the media. Doesn't seem like an effective coaching strategy, but he may be scapegoating the LB (doesn't excuse the rest of the defense), or signaling he knows it's bad, but not his call.

RR and JDR are well aware of getting burned on the CBs playing off, way more than we are here. The only real question, is why don't they change the scheme?

Something has to change soon.

Re: Lions postgame
 

JDR FUCKING SUCKS

Re: Lions postgame
 

Rivera thinks he's a great HC. The problem is, it's completely false. He is actually a terrible HC. And if you take away his amazing 15-1 year, his record would be a complete and utter joke.

- Go to Fedex today for the Andrews air show
- Get my 14k steps in and spend 8 hours roasting in the 90 degree heat
- Absolutely exhausted
- Make it back to Fedex somehow without hearing what the score is despite my Redskins hat
- Walking back to car, strike up convo with Fedex parking lot staffer and cop, start talking football
- First thing out of my mouth is "just don't tell me anything about the Skins game today, I recorded it"
- Parking lot staffer immediately says "they played a tough one today, came up just short against the Lions"
- Jaw drops like wtf did I just say?
- Traffic sucks, almost 2 hours to get home
- Get home turn game on anyways, wtf is wrong with picture?
- Fucking Verizon Fios, I recorded the game on 5 instead of 505 - have to watch the Skins lose in low-def.
- Fucking watch our yearly "this is the most embarrassing half of football I've ever seen" meltdown in low-def.
- Fuckin JDR man. Jesus fuck.
- Can't fucking win when you have to play an immaculate half of football just to come back from 3 score deficit.
- Fucking paper tiger defense you wack motherfuckers.

Re: Lions postgame
 

@ChadwikoTWW
I've seen enough.

Jack Del Rio should be fired as Defensive Coordinator.

Make Chris Harris interim DC for rest of 2022.

Young talented defenders not developing
Guys playing out of position
Man coverage corners being played in a soft zone D
No improvement from 2021

It's time.
