Game 9: Dolphins @ Lions Thread

[Mitchrapp]

I love Defense, so this is my type of game.

I do as well but mistakes I don't like.

I agree that it's very disappointing that we only have 10 points at halftime. We should have more than 20 by now. I just think that Lombardi has done an awful job playcalling for the most part, and then Stafford has been at least decent (some good, some bad). I think it's a bit ridiculous to say that "Stafford blows" at this point in the game

Take away an amazing, and fairly lucky, grab by Grimes, and Detroit has 17 on the board. Zero doubt in the minds of anyone watching that play scores if not for Grimes making an insane interception.

It's "shit happens and you move on".

Good thing we are a second half team

you guys read my comments every day. and youre surprised I would say "Stafford blows" after he throws a pick enough to start 2 pages worth of bickering. Theres no fucking way you should start as many drives with great field position like we did and only have 10 points. Average qb and shitty playcaller.

There is zero doubt in my mind CJ would of not been inbounds.

I agree. I mean at minimum Detroit should be up 17-0. But I still think the D has played great. That last drive they slacked off a little bit. But they only gave up 3 instead of a touchdown. I'll take that

It was an amazing interception. But even with that, we had great field position several times and couldn't even get a field goal. That's a little disappointing. Hopefully Lombardi can make some good adjustments at halftime.

I wasn't watching the play close enough I guess to know if CJ was in position for an easy TD..if he was close to being OB.

and what about when we started on our side of the field and ended the drive on their side of the field? was that grimes fault too?

what about when bush was wide open for a first down and Stafford decided to get sacked instead? was that grimes fault?

No.. clearly it was Stafford's fault. Along with the 0-16 season, war in the middle east.. the clean water crisis, and fucking Ebola.

Calvin had a penalty bud. It wasn't Staffords fault.

Wake got him. That's pressure not Stafford

so you guys are cool with 7/13 with 1 td 1 int and a 74 qb rating and 10 points when we had great field position the entire half. You guys are ACTUALLY trying to argue that is good?

We are a second half team when we get blown out in the first half. They might not make the necessary adjustments with us going into the half with the lead.

Dolphins have the #2 pass defense in the NFL right now I'm ok with it...more bell

 

[adam86107]

these announcers are annoying

That is something every can agree on.

Yes. Lombardi has to take a massive part of the blame today. Just terrible play calling for most of the game, besides the 1st fake (Amazing call).

Somebody pointed it out.....we have the best jump ball WR of all time being guarded, primarily, by a midget....and we don't even call ONE play for him in the red zone.

It's just dumb.

 

[adam86107]

great start

 

[adam86107]

fumble!!!

 

[lgolfer]

Wow! Defense is playing out of their minds!
