Lions are 1 for 5 on 3rd down conversions when they need at least 6 yards.
Their starting RB is averaging less than 3.5 yards per carry on 15 carries.
And they're still just beating our butts. Incrementally.

I think we are talented. I also think this team doesn't play as one. It starts with Nixon running out kos.

Love has had time on many of his drop backs. He’s just holding the ball too long. Whether it’s him or the WRs is unknown. His 1st reads are definitely being taken away and it’s got the entire offense discombobulated.
I feel badly for Love. Must be a &%$@ feeling.

Barry made no secrets from the start that his philosophy is death by 1000 cuts, hoping somewhere along the way the offense stabs itself.YoHoChecko wrote: ↑28 Sep 2023 20:36Lions are 1 for 5 on 3rd down conversions when they need at least 6 yards.

Really want to see this All-22. Is no one open or is Love not seeing it?

Yeah that's the real question.
He also is sliding away from pressure and starting to set up to pass again when he's still literally in arm's reach of the defenders. And they are reaching out and getting there.
I don't blame him. But seriously, he really isn't. He is disappointed just like the rest of us.musclestang wrote: ↑28 Sep 2023 20:34I don’t find it reassuring when the HC looks like he’s crying on the sideline
Is Watson playing or are they blanketing him?

Al Michaels has completely lost interest in this game.
He called it "garbage yards" earlier when he said the Packers were no longer at negative yards.
The Packers are clearly trying to conserve time and move incrementally down to set up for a Hail Mary and he keeps saying "well that didn't do anything." or "that was whatever that was."
He's checked out. Haha. Not that i blame him.

Absolutely everyone on the oline is getting abused.

Love the blitz by the Lions on the Hail Mary. Don't allow us to get time to throw it. Wish more teams had that mentality.

The lions enjoy being mean. We have no juice at all without Jaire. We finesse boys.

He’s not a fan that can just be disappointed lol. He needs to be doing something to change what’s happeningPugger wrote: ↑28 Sep 2023 20:41I don't blame him. But seriously, he really isn't.

People keep saying "well we are a young and inexperienced team so we will have our struggles" and yeah I do think that's part of what we are seeing right now, but that explanation does not quite cut the mustard for me.
What looks like the bigger issue to me is MLF does not (yet) know how to coach/lead this kind of team.
