Try as you might, I will not blame a coaching staff that continues to find ways to win more games than they lose.

I will not blame coaches for decisions that are made by players on the field.

The one that sticks out to me is the one that got stalled before it began because the refs are so whistle averse

To expound… in a land before replay, they would call that incomplete live.

But now, they call it a fumble and hope the TVs will save them if needed. And it’s close, so the call would stand.

NFL refs care more about what television will show than what the right call is. I don’t like that.

But the play calling on that drive was kinda questionable. Run the ball, use up the rest of the clock. That would have even opened up the passing game.

Not that I want to be "that guy," but it seemed like we had a number of bad calls/non-calls... The helmet to helmet on Goff, the "hold" on the punt, which didn't look like a hold at all to me, a non-call on a pretty obvious hold on Anzalone.

I try not to question play calling. There’s the whole saying “all men think they can drive, grill, and call plays.” I try to defy that stereotype.

The only play calling that’s been objectively terrible IMO this year was when they ran up the middle twice on the Green Bay 1.

The Lions can win this. Would like them to hold the Ravens to a FG on the opening drive. If they do, game on …

Oh yeah, they absolutely can. I was worried that the Lions were going to be out classed by the Ravens, but they've hung with them and shown that they are every bit as good a team.

If they lose this game it will entirely because of that meltdown of 2 mins. Bad offense. Bad special teams. Bad defense. All 3 phases choked in such a huge moment.
