Campbell is insane

Goff fell down on the handoff. That was fractions away from being an all time dumbass move

He doesn’t care he’s going to keep putting it on the players

Campbell is insane

Going to cost them the super bowl again

He is playoffs form already. Going for it in the 3rd in a one possession game inside the own 30 and going for it on 4th and inches with 30 seconds to go in a tied game. Common sense should come into play eventually

You can say that.

However can’t argue with the results.

While I think Campbell goes overboard sometimes, I still the majority of coaches err on the side of being too conservative with these decisions.

And honestly I don’t think it is fair to blame Campbell at this point the 1 time it doesn’t work.

Because how many wins have these decisions led to when they have worked?

4/5 last night.

Yeah, I understand him sticking to his guns. He’s basically set a foundation and tone for the team and the players seem to be very receptive to it.

The Lions have an identity now, something they were sorely lacking for such a long time.

As you said, he does go overboard sometimes with aggressiveness and there will inevitably be naysayers the times it doesn’t work out especially in the postseason (rightly so) despite previous successes.

Even as a Packers fan, it’s still fun watching the Lions do their thing.

That was a good game last night.

Is Jayden Reed alive?

Is Jayden Reed alive?

Signs point to yes, but I forgot that he even had one target yesterday.

Love only attempted 20 passes last night I believe, the game plan was clearly set to rushing but Reed being absent was kind of bizarre.

Not sure if there’s something going on there internally but I know Reed was outspoken after their first matchup saying something like “wait til we’re in Detroit” but obviously that did not go according to his plan.

He was dead on 2 of my fantasy teams last night

I don’t think there is a better culture builder in the NFL than Dan Campbell.

He has those guys running through walls for him. It’s unreal all the injuries on defense, they are plugging in new guys almost every week and they are performing.

Are any of the injured defenders expected back for the playoffs? I know that edge rusher isn't.

A couple dbs may be back in 2 to 3 weeks I’m hearing.

Looks like NFL closed its investigation on latest Watson fake allegations...too bad as was hoping might get suspended again.

When he took the Lions job I thought he was a little nuts, meaning what he said at his press conference.

He's a damn good coach and I'm a fan of his.

Earlier this season I floated Gundy was an overrated HC....and people said I was crazy. Well, the administration agrees with me.....they want him to take a paycut or they going to fire him.....

LOL.

Over the last 20 years he is by far the best coach they have ever had, it’s not close. In my opinion he has been trying to get fired for a while now though. He has taken advantage of them at every turn and they have been dumb enough to let him. He has a perpetual contract that rolls over to 5 more years after every season. It also has built in raises in it.

About a month ago Gundy said some very bad things about people criticizing him. He should have been fired on the spot but now they are using this to either get him to quit or accept changes or he will be fired for cause and won’t get his 25 million buyout.

I will say it is still likely that you are crazy.

He is still just 57, still young to get a gig somewhere else....

I am definitely recovering from a near death experience....at my age this hangover is like that. LOL.
