The Stafford Slide

[LKP]

BTW, momentum changes on a dime in sports.

Game was much closer than the score. But it's over now. Bring on the shit opponents the next four weeks to dominate.

It's a fact we left those points out there. Maybe New England plays worse if Fauria catches that TD pass. Maybe they don't get the big kickoff return. There is 7 less points for the Pats too. Then a TD to Fuller and we could be up 17-6 not down 21-6. And the FG miss by Prater gave Pats a short field to get their field goal. Another 6 point swing.

Momentum is huge. Fauria and Fuller drops were huge in the first half. And the defense didn't back us up when New England had to go 93 yards up only 14-6. That was the backbreaker. LBs and Vaughn couldn't cover.

Brady was 38/53 for 349 yards. He was picking the Lions apart. Offense failed. Defense Failed. Team failed.

I would agree. The game was played on planet earth, which is much closer.

That score was in a different galaxy.

Holy shit dude, and I thought I was high on pain killers. What game did you watch? The game was closer than the score? That was an ugly game from start to finish, but only for one team.

We got beat like we stole something.

3 TD drops and a missed FG. Much closer.

3 TD drops and a missed FG. Much closer.

Lions feature back averaged 2.5 yards per carry.
Their QB completed 39% of his passes.
Their top 2 WRs were targeted 21 times and caught 8
Their top rated defense allowed Brady to complete 71% of his passes for 350 yards
Their top rated defense allowed a RB that was released earlier in the week to average 6.5 yards per carry and 2 TDs
They were out scored 34-9

Your definition of "much closer" is quite different than mine!

Throw the stats out and watch how New England plays the game. Every time Brady threw the ball, you knew it was going to be a completion. 10-15 yards a pop. They know EXACTLY where to go, where to sit in zones.

Who in the hell is Julian Edelman? That is what I wish Matt Stafford could do, make players BETTER.

He's an average QB. Had a chance to be a great one this year, and really break through. He couldn't.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Big difference between their guys and ours..route running. Blame it on the zone but truth is most of Brady's passes were easy because all his guys were open. We seldom have a guy open like that.

3 dropped TDs and a missed field goal. Comp % wouldn't be as bad if not for the drops. Both the drops adding back completions and future plays not needed.

Brady did well but Lions could have won in the shootout, avoided the final 3 of the second half with a made FG, avoided the kickoff return for an easy 7 and avoided the need to throw a pick which set up Pats last TD (plus the Mosley penalty out of frustration)>

Much closer game. Lions moved the ball.

You are such a moron! Those things did happen! The game was a blowout!

 

[mhughes0021]

7 1/2 quarters of drives stalling. Youre right there is no guarantee but the offense has shown nothing to make us think they would score a td.

theres much better odds that he throws a pick....

Fixed this for you.

Not really. 3 off the board from pats from end of first half FG that wouldn't happen. That last TD drives never happens because the int attempt is not needed. Lions win the game.

Lions win 30-24

A troll says what?

 

[Mitchrapp]

With the end of 2014, top troll of the year is last year's top troll..lkp. Woo hoo, congrats. Your family must be proud.

 

[LKP]

I'm rooting for the Lions with facts. This is not trolling. You negative nancies will be put in your place the next 5 weeks.

Yes because the patriots play exactly the same way regardless of what the score is. Come on now, every play changes the game, to say if this happened than this and that wouldn't happen is stupid.

Fact that it was a close game? That's opinion, not fact.

Lions could have played better. You are just assuming Pats would play better. Lions moved the ball on six drives, including four in the first half.
