Saints made half time adjustments. Lions haven’t shown anything in the second half yet. Good they were up three scores; now need to provide a stop and chew clock.

 

[Mebert]

Rough stretch. Need the offense to go on a long drive this time.

 

[Mebert]

Nice drive, shame it did not end in the endzone, but it got points. Don't love abandoning the pass once they got into the redzone.

 

[Mebert]

Lions force the second TO, that is a huge momentum shift!

 

[Mebert]

Huge couple of plays there. Nice to see them correct.

 

[VulturesRule]

Going for two makes math sense. The Saints fumble was a gift. Now it’s time for the Lions D to earn a stop/turnover to do their part.

 

[Mebert]

Bad penalty for the Lions.

 

[Mebert]

Defense has been at 3rd and over 10 twice on this drive and converted both for 1sts. That is rough.

 

[VulturesRule]

Defense is just not holding up their end, relying more on luck than skill or scheme. Sad, but hopefully the Offense can march down the field, chew clock and score.

On that one it was luck on the opposite side. Defense got a hand on the pass, just popped up to Olave. Bad Luck, but not a bad play.

Offense needs to just march down the field on this drive.

 

[Mebert]

Or they can go 3 and out, that was the other option

oh look, our defense getting run thru like shit thru a goose

Careful, some around here label you as an overly negative fan with talk like that.

 

[Mebert]

Thank god for Jamis Winston

overly negative is to say aaron glann should be stripped naked tied to the visitors goal at lca and let everyone have 5 shots each before strapping him to the next thing smoking out of detroit

I approve this message.

 

[VulturesRule]

Finally a stop. Now chew up the clock!

I am not sure we stopped them so much, more Jamis Winston missed 3 consecutive wide open WR's

 

[Mebert]

Huge play on 3rd and 8!

 

[Mebert]

Goff huge on 3rd and long again. Dude was clutch on that last drive.
