Obviously the Lions offense is not as good, let alone as fun to watch, as the past two seasons when it was like they could score at will and only team that could beat them was themselves. The o-line is now close to being the Achilles heal. On the other hand, I think the defense is the best it has been in these three seasons and probably getting better. We can still win games, but will look different than recent seasons. The season has not been much different than I expected going in, apart from the horror loss to Minnesota. With NYG, Green Bay and Dallas coming up at home, I fully expect the Lions to be 9-4 and 1st in the North with 4 games to go. Then take it from there. Clearly a notch below the Rams and Eagles at the moment but the playoffs start in2 months.

True. Definitely the 2nd best team on the field and didn’t deserve win. But sometimes you can fluke one out and I hate being robbed of that chance, even if was only a 10% chance.

Only thing out of the picture now is the bye, won’t gain 3 games on the Eagles. #2 likely out too, to the Rams. But are still likely to be anywhere between #3-#7.

Lions should have had the ball back at around their own 25 with 1:40 to go and one timeout.

HORRIBLE call!!

Now kick it away and try to get a 3 and out.

I think a 55 yarder even with the wind issue is higher % than 3rd and 17.

Ok, now don’t waste any time here. Give yourself until the 2 minute warning to get the TD, if not just kick a FG.

Wtf, how can you punt now??

Tush push stopped.

Right. Poor sport.

16-6. So 4 down territory the rest of the way, chance for the Lions to get to 0 for 6 or maybe even 0 for 7.

Eagles now getting dangerously close to FG territory for a 2-score game.

Somehow still just a one-score game.

I would have kicked it there. Said that to myself before the snap.
