They also still need a David Montgomery Jr. Without him they do not have offensive balance.

Campbell’s hallmark has been his aggressiveness. The Baltimore staff took it right away. Baltimore was the aggressor and the Lions — coaches and players — were on their heels all game Baltimore won the coin toss, took the ball, challenged the Lions defense to keep up with Lamar’s versatility and they couldn’t do it. They exposed Jack Campbell as a rookie. I still think he will get there someday but he was not there yesterday On Detroit’s first offensive drive they gave it to Gibbs for four yards. Not bad. Had Montgomery been healthy they would have fed him again, played to their strength, and given the defense time to regroup. But they were afraid to put too much on Gibbs — and I’m sure Baltimore knew it. (Even with garbage time he only got 11 carries.) Instead Goff threw an incomplete on a weak throw to the flat, then took a sack. The defense was already shell-shocked. By the second offensive play of the game it was easy to see the Lions were in for a long day. Yes, Detroit’s lack of depth at RB and CB got exposed. Their lack of high end skill at DT got exposed. They could still use a big, physical receiver who can make contested catches. (Josh Reynolds is not quite this guy.) But they fell into the same habits that have plagued them against Hurts and Geno Smith in the past. The coaches did not have the team ready to play and they should take this one on the chin.

Even though losing to AFC teams has nothing to do with NFC playoff seeds, I’m still hoping Miami wins against Philly tonight. 😉

I blame the coaches for this debacle. They were not ready for anything Baltimore had for them on offense or defense.

I’m out.

It’s good to see the refs remember they can call holding.

Hutch gets paid back.

Complete horse **** call.

Campbell doesn’t know who he’s covering.

Blatant illegal contact against Baltimore missed by the officials.

A complete team loss. Offense, defense, special teams.

Embarrassing.

You can get this kind of time if you get away with holding. Finally they called it, but they could have called it three other times.

Who is catching passes for Baltimore today? I’ll take Detroit 20-19.

Ok, so we have the Red Wings on the road to the Stanley Cup, Michigan winning the national championship, and the Lions winning the Super Bowl. Don’t wake me up fellas.

How should I feel about this? Is Harbaugh a dark genius like Belichick or is someone at the NCAA still mad that he bought some kids a cheeseburger?

Taylor Swift starts dating NFL star Travis Kelce just before the start of the session when she has a major concert tour and movie to promote and he has a… ahem… multi-billion dollar pharmaceutical to promote. But the NFL would never plant a story. 😊

I've been saying for a long time that when Dan Campbell makes it to the Super Bowl he will develop a level of crossover mainstream media popularity that even Mike Ditka never enjoyed.

NFL Network has LaPorta as its top ranked TE: https://www.nfl.com/news/top-10-tight-ends-entering-week-6-of-2023-nfl-season-rookie-at-no-1-travis-kelce LaPorta is 19 yards behind Kelce, leads all TEs with 8 receptions over 20 yards, and is tied for the league lead in receiving TDs for a TE with 3. Anyone who says he is not the real deal is just trying to get a rise out of you.

I miss Tom Jackson. He could even make Chris Berman watchable!

😂😂😂 Hasn’t played a down in the NFL. Wants to be paid like he had Tom Brady’s career.

Revenge.

Of all possible outcomes, a Lions-Browns Super Bowl is the most amusing so it is the one I am rooting for.

Detroit is no longer looking up at anyone in the standings. Don’t overthink it. Just enjoy it. 😊
