Game Thread: New York Jets vs Detroit Lions 7:20 est ESPN

[broncosmitty]

When did Reba McEntire start doing play by play for ESPN's NFL broadcast?

They're filming Tremors VI after the game.



Kevin Bacon is doing the radio broadcast.

 

[Mebert]

Damn, did we make adjustments?

Well the offense did

 

[Howie115]

The Lions did nothing to upgrade the defense this past offseason, and it shows. Darnold, Crowell and Enunwa look like Aikman, Smith and Irvin.

 

[jayfan]

Can we ship Cooter?

If I hear 1 more time how good he is and how good Stafford is with him I am gonna hurt someone. Stafford sucked and Cooters play calls are as predictable and ineffective as ever. Only time this team moves the ball is in hurry up late in halfs.

And dont get me started on 2nd and goal from the 7 and we waste a play running it. Dumbest play call ever. We dont have 7 rushing yards all game and the Jets have 3 backup DBs and 1 of them is a number 3. Hey lets bunch formation.

He is a fucking idiot.

Cooter is the issue here? Really?

It's his fault that Stafford keeps throwing picks? It's his fault that the defense is absolute trash?

 

[Mebert]

I wonder what our running backs would look like if first contact came after positive yardage.

 

[Mebert]

You know things are improved with the running game when 3rd and 1 is a passing down

 

[Rob]

Patricia, apparently, made Stafford worse.

 

[Howie115]

Another back-foot throw, another pick.

 

[Old Lion]

Cooter is the issue here? Really?

It's his fault that Stafford keeps throwing picks? It's his fault that the defense is absolute trash?

Yup. Another easily diagnosed play. I called it as soon as they lined up. How hard is it for an NFL DC to figures it out if I can do it.

 

[corn train]

Pats got the better end of the deal here it seems

 

[jayfan]

Yup. Another easily diagnosed play. I called it as soon as they lined up. How hard is it for an NFL DC to figures it out if I can do it.

You're protecting your guy Patricia at all costs. The defense is in 'super bowl' form.

 

[broncosmitty]

The announcing matches the quality of game going on

You should hear Lomas on the radio.


He keeps tripping over his tongue.

 

[Old Lion]

You're protecting your guy Patricia at all costs. The defense is in 'super bowl' form.

And yet we are almost 3/4 of the way through the game and the defense has almost as many points as the offense.

 

[Old Lion]

You're protecting your guy Patricia at all costs. The defense is in 'super bowl' form.

And the O-line gets Stafford killed. Must be the defenses fault.

 

[Howie115]

And the O-line gets Stafford killed. Must be the defenses fault.

That play took forever. Way too much time for the O-line to hold off defenders.

 

[jayfan]

And the O-line gets Stafford killed. Must be the defenses fault.

Couldn't possibly be Stafford's fault. Heavens no, never that.

 

[Howie115]

Oh, and the special teams are trash, too.

 

[Rob]

At least the super bowl defense can get some extra rest.

 

[broncosmitty]

I'd call Caldwell tomorrow.



Only because I assume he's sleeping right now.

 

[jayfan]

And yet we are almost 3/4 of the way through the game and the defense has almost as many points as the offense.

And the New York friggin Jets, with a first-time starting rookie QB, have 31 points.
