I don’t understand why we played starters today. I didn’t want to question Campbell, but it made no sense. The backups had a decent chance to beat Minnesota anyway. It’s unacceptable.
The pregame ceremony wasn’t much, just a video and spot lighting the banner to a standing ovation.
They did set off two small fireworks though, which is a first that I’ve ever seen in Ford Field.
If the fruit of the Bill Belichick tree is rotten, and now the tree itself is dead too, maybe we should just uproot the entire thing and relocate it! What could go wrong.
I think the first playoff game at Ford Field is a decent storyline in and of itself. They could push the “Stafford’s Return” story through the week on ESPN too.
