Motown Bombers

I don't think either of those were a big reach though. It's not like they drafted Tavai in the 2nd round. I think they do default to character like Hutchinson over Thibodeaux but I don't think they reach a lot of character. They traded up to draft Jameson Williams and took Gibbs high who are both speed guys. They also took Laporta over Mayer who had more physical tools. Jack Campbell is the high character guy they like but he also had one of the highest RAS scores ever for a LB.

Here's why the Lions didn't go all in and trade picks for veterans. There's still good young players who didn't make the list that should have like Gibbs.

Marcus Peters got cut because he lacked effort, refused to tackle, and got into an altercation with his coach. The Lions aren't going to sign him. The Lions are trending in that direction. They're a young team whose window is just opening. This is like the 1991 Red Wings, not the 1997 Red Wings.

Ken Holland won multiple championships. I'll take multiple Super Bowls.

I'm convinced Dobbs is actually Charlie Villanueva.

You know, the Bears are only two games out of the playoffs.

Jim Bob Cooter turned Stafford's career around. Underrated play caller.

Dobbs needed a ridiculous comeback to beat Atlanta. He disappeared in the 2nd half against the Saints and they almost lost that game. They lost to Denver when Dobbs disappeared in the 2nd half. Dobbs basically disappeared this entire game. I'm reminded of the words of a former Vikings coach, "They are who we thought they were."

I never doubted Justin Fields.

I would have tried for the 1st down and assured the FG was the last play.

If the Vikings are paying off coverage, a WR screen wouldn't be a bad idea. I don't trust the Bears to be smart though.

Conversely, the Lions offense scored 29 points on this defense.

God help me if I see another WR screen.

I have complete confidence in Fields.

That's ok. Justin Fields will bring this team back.

I want to punch an actual Bear.

Has Fields ever called an audible? I don't recall him communicating anything at the line. They must not trust him.

Too much. Between watching the Bears and whatever the **** skol is, this is just miserable.

Vikings CBs were giving the receivers a 10 yard cushion. That's the time to throw a WR screen.

They threw something other than a WR screen.

The INT actually hurts the Bears. God I hate this team.

I hate automatic 1st downs on 5 yard penalties.
