Me too. I was pumped up for this game. Just like the week 17 Packers game last season. What a let down.

Classic Caldwell Lions. Down double digits early because of mistakes and chasing those points for the final 3 quarters.


The plays that stick in my mind are:
Not picking up the blocked extra point and trying to do something
The AA fumble
The missed screen pass by Stafford
The start of the second half
Fells not catching multiple TD passes
Not snapping the extra point ball after Fells did drop the ball
Getting crushed by Thielen and Rudolph
Screen passes to Diggs not being handled by people in position to limit the damage
Running the ball innefectively again and again and again and again for two straight decades

It all adds up to classic SOL and another failed season.

Keep the faith. When we do win one day the party will go on for weeks. I hope I am alive still.

Go Lions and Happy Thanksgiving

I'm going to Ford Field tomorrow to root for the only Championship team I've been a fan of. (Or played for.)


Sorry you don't have a fall back. It makes Thanksgiving Weekend something to look forward to football wise every year, for me.

This game was closer than I expected.


Thought it'd be like 31-10.

I put Matty on the bench for yesterday. Figured no comeback at all. Caldwell made my decision look better when he went for it threw a late INT instead a late TD on the next drive. 3 minutes left is prolly too much time for Matty. He’s better under :30 seconds.

I don’t carry my dissatisfaction of this team past about 10 minutes. Although, the fact I’m walking through Minny airport with every TV showing highlights and replays, I keep resetting that fucking 10 minute clock.

Chasing them 1 field goal at a time.

The missed screen pass by Stafford

That was the worst. Missing Riddick from like 5 yards away for a gimmie TD.

Running the ball innefectively again and again and again and again for two straight decades

I think one of the announcers said that during Stafford's 9 year career. The Lions have had only 9- 100 yard rushers?

That is an insane stat.

Bring back Mike Martz pass happy offense... oh wait, Stafford has concrete shoes just like Jon Kitna did. Eff the running game we'll take the sacks.

Even worse, it's seven.

Last one was Reggie Bush.
