Vikings destroy eagles even without peterson a week after thr lions gave away the game. Great job, phenomenal actually. I'd say the lions coaches are inept and players lack that instinct required to be a good team, but that would be too complementapry.

Disgraceful that such a low functioning Vikings team could so fully demonstrate how flawed the Lions are in reality.
 
It is coaching... Anyone who says different is just not right... The division would be locked up with just halfway decent coaching...

To be fair, the Vikings-Eagles game was played in a dome, which makes it difficult to compare to a game played in over half a foot of snow. Having said that, I agree that the Lions' coaches, especially Gunther and Schwartz, are inept.
 
Yep. It will take an act of god for them not to embarrass themselves on national TV tomorrow. Anyone else notice that half these teams we squeak by (or lose to) get manhandled by the other teams in this division. It's embarrassing. This team refuses to do shit right.

half foot of snow the WRs have all the advantage in the world with knowing where the route is going instead of having to react to a WRs break. Throw into the mix that philly has the worst pass defense in the league.....there were several adjustments that could have been made to take advantage. Buuuut we just continued to run up the middle for 2 yards. Sure it was difficult t throw in the 1st half....but when it cleared up in the 2nd half we should have opened it up a bit more....like philly did. Our coaches are dumb...offense couldn't execute....and the defense obviously sucked ass. When the only thing you did well was play ST....youre not going to win many games.

The reason I posted is because it's a whole lot easier to score in a dome than it is in 1/2 a foot of snow. You wouldn't expect a scoreline of 48-30 in the snow. Saying that and agreeing that the coaches were inept were the only two points I was trying to make.

I agree for the most part with what you said, but it had almost nothing to do with my post.

A dome team on the road in a foot of snow, what did you think would happen? We wont win shit until we get rid of that thing, next stadium better be out door.

2 yards up the middle >15 yard drop.
 
The Vikings shut McCoy down for 4 quarters instead of just two..

Blame it on the snow, it was the snows fault

He had 8 carries for 38 yards and a 4.8 YPC. Thats not being shut down thats not being used. And if you add in catch yards he had over 100 Total Yards. Vikings shut him down... good one.
 
The Pack just won........again lol. (sigh) Every other team in the north is thriving under the pressure.
 
Cowboys just gave that game away... Such poor offensive play calling by the Cowboy coaching staff on offense.. I would Fire Garrett right after the game if I was Jones..

Nice to see how Reid turned around KC.....sigh...

You see the Lions atop the division and you feel your chances are pretty good.
 
What about trying to get Tony dungy... His playoff record is so so but maybe he could turn our clowns into winners on a consistent basis...
