I’m sure you are right that SF didn’t draw it up tonight on the sideline. Would they have run it if it failed for Detroit earlier? I’m guessing not.

SF just scored on the exact same double reverse flea flicker that Detroit did earlier today, right down to the Iowa TE.

That double flea flicker… such a joke of a play. If they had done three more tosses LaPorta would have been way more open.

Salt in the wound. And Carolina has to come back out for the second half.

This game is brutal.

Was that Jaymo throwing a key block on the 42 yard TD run?

Any given Thursday.

This is the NFL. Everyone is getting paid. Other players haven’t had the same impact against the Giants that Witherspoon had last night. He got that dawg in him. Hats off.

I dislike the product of Thursday night football, but I love watching the Lions in prime time. I’m usually focused on something else in that 4:30 window I feel like Thursday football should be a treat, maybe not just for Thanksgiving, but not every week.

I like Brian Branch but that Devon Witherspoon is a player.

I want to see two things from Jaymo. A receiving TD and a rushing TD.

Maybe if Millen had played the role of Chris Spielman, as a liaison between coaching staff, front office, and ownership, he would have been more successful. He was in over his head managing a scouting staff, contracts, draft board, etc I think identifying that role, and selecting Spielman for it, has been Sheila’s greatest decision as majority owner. Her second greatest decision has been to allow Holmes and Campbell to surround themselves with experienced staff. She really opened up the checkbook to ensure that her first-time GM and HC (don’t bring up MCDC’s interim role) were not overwhelmed by their jobs. Spielman seems to be the guy who makes sure nobody is preening for the owner and who makes sure ownership understands what the team needs. If WCF was smart enough and committed enough, he might have had success putting Millen in a similar role. I don’t hate Millen. He was just overwhelmed by that job that was way too big for any one person. Sheila figured it out.

IIRC he hit a guy in the hands in the end zone. Dropped pass and they settle for a FG. There’s a four point swing.

Denver defense literally allowed Fields to have one of the greatest QB performances imaginable for 55 minutes then when it counted he fumbled, committed an intentional grounding penalty, and threw a game losing INT. Classic. 😂

LOL Chicago! Edit: LMAO Chicago!!!

And Travis Kelce is suddenly the pitchman for almost every product known to man, including… well. Am I the only one who thinks this is a match made by their PR consultants?

Here's what I'm saying. I saw him look upset once. This clearly means he will end up like Charles Rogers or Antonio Brown. Just give it time to play out.

Yes, they really should be calling 60 yard gains for Gibbs rather than three yard ones. Those morans.

Did you see the last play Johnson called? Goff just took the snap and got down on one knee!

Lambeau belongs to the brand new Lions.

Achilles? Just go ahead and put some tape on it.

This defense is making a statement.

Jordan Rules 2.0. Sack him into oblivion.

First two games last year he had 200 rushing yards on 20 attempts. Philly is feeding him more but everybody knows he is explosive. The bet was that he could be replaced by someone as explosive, more durable, and not in line for a new contract.

Swift started several seasons like this. He will get injured soon and will come back to earth. It’s tough to say three games into their careers whether Gibbs and LaPorta will be more valuable than Carter. Gibbs and LaPorta have been good and excellent, respectively, but Carter is showing signs of being an elite DT.
