Game Thread: Week 4: Monday night Mayhem in the Motor City. 5:15/8:15. ABC/TSN

Not a single incompletion for Goff... that's insane.

Not like he's had to hit tight windows all night.

 

[jerseyhawksfan79]

Secondary is bleeding

 

[FirebreathingMonkey]

No defense... game

 

[Sharkonabicycle]

Yah I think that's gonna seal it... They went down the field like it was nothing there.

 

[WizardHawk]

Aight, this one's over. Maybe next week.

 

[flyerhawk]

We need our defense back

 

[jerseyhawksfan79]

That's game

 

[MrS]

At least we have reason to believe our defense can get a lot better
Can we make a trade for a LB?

 

[Sharkonabicycle]

Aikman/Buck absolutely zero mention that 5 (now 6 with Love) of their defensive starters are out... lmao... those two need to go butt fuck each other.

Our D has looked lost tonight… We’re making Goff look like Joe Montana

I think we can all agree things would have been different had not half of the Hawks Starters been out on Defense. I did expect a loss in a high scoring game but not this high scoring.

I think we can all agree things would have been different had not so many Starters been out on Defense. I did expect a loss in a high scoring game but not this high scoring.

Eh I was thinking like 31 Detroit Seattle 30/27 or something. DKs fumble basically gave them a TD... so I was CLOSE. If Mac had held the Lions to like < 24 points I'd argue he should be COTY in week 4.

I think they could have won it if defense was healthy

Yah I agree. Their run game sliced us too easily and when passing outside of Hall at the end of the 1st half there was ZERO pressure (which was expected).

Yeah, this has been a good experience for the young guys … I honestly didn’t expect a win tonight, Detroit was in the NFC title game last year so they’re a good team.. I was heated when we went for 2, now mathematically it’s harder for the comeback

With very very little pressure our secondary is getting hammered.

 

[boogiewithstu2007]

Geno isn’t great in the red zone, he threw a LOT of bad passes there … Overall he’s played a good game though, just doesn’t look great in the red zone, he’s always been a little skeptical there …

 

[Screamin12th]

Has a QB ever been perfect in a game?

Not something to be proud of if your Defense is the team it happens to... oh a safety wow.

They really didn't go after the outside much. Mainly because the middle was open and the corners are tough

Should have let walker run it in
