Week Fifteen: Detroit Lions (8-5) @ Los Angeles Rams (10-3)

[MichiganCardinal]

God dammit. Just completely lost control.

[TP_Fan]

And they can’t even get the ball off and have to waste a timeout.  What a ****ing mess this team is.

Three drives and three 3 and outs.  Campbell should be ****ing embarrassed. He has embarrassed out of the stadium.  They have regressed so hard this season due to coaching.

Now that we are three quarters in with no calls against the Rams, I'll predict that a call will go against the Rams with it nearly out of hand, make the box score look better.

Blatant block in the back not called on that return, so they don't even care. Will we be the first team in NFL history to finish two games in one season without the benefit of a single penalty?

Need a strip sack TD. 

[chasfh]

So he punts high from the end zone to mid-field, and then through their end zone when deep in his own zone. A little thing but that’s how complete and far-reaching this collapse is.

[MichiganCardinal]

Just rolled over and died at the half, on both sides of the ball.

This is so stupid. The lions draw so many ratings. The nfl would rather the lions.  Campbell and Shepard are just awful.  That’s the reality. 

[Mr.TaterSalad]

Just absolutely unreal. On every planet but Earth this is not a TD.

 

 

[lordstanley]

A stop?!

The Rams have zero penalties for negative yards and were gifted a TD. This is the Chiefs game all over again. What are the odds you play two games in a season where your opponent doesn't get a single penalty for negative yards?

[TP_Fan]

This is a playoff roster.  This isn’t a playoff team. Can’t get outcoached every week.

They weren’t gifted a TD. Yes, he should have been down at the 1, but it would have been a first and goal.  Why is anyone even talking about this?

Quit quoting this sociopath. He needs therapy none of us are qualified to provide. 

[Mr.TaterSalad]

I really hate complaining about the refs. I do. I think it's often cheap and overused by fans to excuse bad play. Yes, we've fallen apart in the second half. Yes, we've let them back in the game and given them control. Yes, our defense looks bad today. But that TD call is the worst scoring call I've ever witnessed. That is inexcusable for the leagues officials to get it that wrong.

[sagnam]

If by week 15 Raymond is a better option than your 3rd round pick you’ve failed. Either in the draft or in your personnel decisions.

[TP_Fan]

The rams all over the Gibbs Texas route.

It's not just that. It's zero penalties in nearly 50 minutes. It's comparing a call like that to the call against Dallas where a clear safety gets waved off.

This is a game between two top-five teams talent-wise. You can only gift one of them so many possessions and so many first downs before it makes a huge difference. Here we are.

[TP_Fan]

These play calls are just awful. 

[Mr.TaterSalad]

I don't like that pitch play call, they far behind the line of scrimmage on 2nd and 11.

[MichiganCardinal]

We need an OC. The hiring of Morton doomed this season.

[sagnam]

Take the call sheet away from Campbell right now. Those last 3 plays are unacceptable.

[TP_Fan]

3rd and 12 draw play lol. What a clueless coach.
