Good teams tend to wake up the next week after not looking good. The Eagles are going to come out looking much better than they did this week. They also can put a lot of pressure on the QB and we did not look very good against similar attacking style defenses in our 3 losses this year. Could Campbell calling the offense help with that, I sure hope so. 

I could easily see us winning or losing this game and I don’t think either result changes our season hopes much. Getting another hostile road environment  under our belts can do nothing but help in the long run. 

I would like to take the opportunity to look back at my post from earlier in the week.

Two plays with three yards to gain and they pass on both. I don’t understand.

Yeah, totally Dan's fault that Goff can't hit the broad side of a barn if he gets pressured, right?  

I gotta agree about Campbell. Thevm pass plays aren't there, try something different. Even the occasional punt ..

How good do they really look though? They look identical to how they performed against Green Bay. Awful on offense, very good on defense.

on 2 and 3 they tried to run some counter play that took way too long to develop and the Eagle blew it up

every play should be a quick hitter

Giving way to much respect to their defensive line. Montgomery only 6 carries which is basically what he complained about Morton doing.

He’s getting pummeled. And no one is making the tough catch. Goff is absolutely playing like crap. Campbell is calling a terrible game on 3rd and 4th down.

On what planet should they be throwing a flag on the opposite side of the field from where the QB scrambles?

[sagnam]

Bailout penalty. Shocker.

[MichiganCardinal]

Have there been more penalties than points in this game? Feels like it.

[sagnam]

Every flag thrown. Makeup call that doesn’t actually undo the damage.

[Sports_Freak]

The Giants are in deep trouble next week.

[MichiganCardinal]

The second he tucked it you knew he had it.

Eagles now getting dangerously close to FG territory for a 2-score game.

Wouldn’t be surprised to see a 3rd and 10 run here for exactly that

[MichiganCardinal]

Thanks for that 4th and Goal Dan!

[TP_Fan]

Weird. FGs are allowed.  Campbell has been absolutely pantsed tonight. 

[lordstanley]

16-6. So 4 down territory the rest of the way, chance for the Lions to get to 0 for 6 or maybe even 0 for 7.

How are they "terrible plays"?  Other than the fact that they didn't work, what evidence can you provide of them being "terrible plays"?  

Just curious, do you also complain that Hinch made the wrong decision every time a relief pitcher doesn't get the job done? 

[sagnam]

Eagles just look like a better team. Limit mistakes and take advantage of situations. The Lions need to learn how to beat good teams. 

[MichiganCardinal]

I’m one of the biggest Campbell supporters there is. But today has been inexcusable.

It’s like he has one speed. Couldn’t adjust to having a bad offense and a good defense. The game flow told you to take the points where they presented themselves.

Seriously? If the play is have 2 guys destroy the QB as he plants his back foot, or have the guard pushed into Gibbs, then maybe those plays were not the right ones. Idk man. If you can judge a play by the result what in the hell is the metric?

One option is punt and FG. Those are allowed too.

[TP_Fan]

One hint of pressure and Goff isn’t even playable.
