Calvin's dropped passes

[meditatedkickaboxa]

Anyone catch how many dropped balls CJ had today?

 

[coel73]

the box score said that he was targeted nine times and caught seven balls. I have no idea if he dropped the two or not

 

[dtroitlionsfan951]

zero drops! lol i don't get this post at all....i know he had 7 catches on 9 targets...and 1 of them i remember was stafford heaving it way out of bounds on a long pass that cal didn't even touch...so whats the other incomplete?

 

[manchild98]

I don't remember him dropping anything today.

 

[tigermud]

perhaps you've confused him for brick hands pettigrew? he dropped a shit load today.

 

[cheeno]

87 looks like 81.

Yeah Calvin had 0 drops today. One throw was 7 yards out of bounds and the other was thrown to Calvin's back shoulder before he even had the chance to turn around. It missed him by 5+ yards so could of been a miscommunication on the route.

CJ has big time hands.

 

[suh]

Pettigrew was the problem today. He dropped a ball on 3rd and five on their second to last drive that would have made it a first down or a 4th and 1. I really think that was the game changer of the day.

So why the FUCK didnt he see the ball MORE???

Whats more surprising is today the Lions had 13 plays inside the Red Zone and Calvin was targeted 1 total time. (3rd and 5 from the 17 yard line. Picked up 9 Yards for the 1st down).

Pretty hard to understand that but in addition to that Pettigrew had 4 targets (Did have 1 TD from those targets). This is why I have been so hard on the play calls and designs today. You have one of the most dominant red zone receivers and yet he gets 1 total target in the red zone today.

That's the point of the post. He has sticky hands and didn't get the ball.

I was pissed from the get go today when the first time in the redzone they never looked his way. It ridiculous he is elite in the redzone and they didnt go to him. dumb.

two less than Pettigrew

15 targets between Nate and Titus....5 catches

yup , put it all on Pettigrew....lol

add the crack back block that cost us a first down and points. Throwing 5-10 yds to a TE is far easier than down field to a WR. Pett had at least 3 legit drops

it wasn't a crack back it was a cut block , and it was non existent...Cherilus wasn't engaged with the SF player , the replay showed it and as Darryl Johnston said it was a "brutal call ".

it was a dumb play to go low on the guy while Cherilus had him covered...cost us 1st and goal on the 8...rather we had to go 52 yd on the FG, which is 50-50...unfortunate 6 point swing in a tight game

Cherilus didnt have him covered...lol

Cherilus was engaged with the guy on the inside , the outside rusher got bumped by Cherilus shoulder as Pettigrew cut his legs.

Cherilus never engaged him...it was a horrid call

idk, I didnt see Schwartz bitching about it
