Detroit defense doing less with less.  Too bad for the Lions.  It does make the Bucs defense look a bit better in comparison does it not?

Yes it does, but the Lions just ran out of steam.  Modern NFL is about needing at least NFL average defense and a superb offense to win a Super Bowl.

yeah obviously. I feel a tad better about the loss now. I’m sure some debatable dans would suggest otherwise

Yeah, it sounds like Campbell is going to be shown the door.  No heart when it matters most.  Embarrassing.

Yeah I'm sure 5 turnovers had nothing to do with it.

Hilarious. Dude is a top 6 head coach.

This team was decimated with injuries and got the one seed.

How did our defense do in the second half of games? 

albeit vs weaker competition late in the year(sans the chargers) they played pretty damn well. Had a ton of injuries this year. 

the yards & penalties were more concerning than the points. 

more often then not it was bend not break. How many games can we say we lost cause the d. 

baker needs to protect the ball better next year.

@debucsown 

I think you are both right. I think they managed games for the most part but they still were not a great team when things mattered most. Too many mistakes on both sides of the ball. Not enough game impacting big plays. We just managed. It's right we aren't in it. We have the talent in some places need to be more consistent there and add to it in fa and draft.

@debucsown - if we didn’t have Coen and his offense’s production this year, we would have won maybe 5 or 6 games. Offense was a top 5 offense. Defense was a bottom 8 defense.

This is true

also true is that baker needs to protect the ball better and we lost our playoff game due to a fumble

thought same when we lost canales. Woe is us.

will the lions be able to replace Ben Johnson? They’ll still have mad weapons & the best o line in football. 

we will still have Evans Godwin Bucky and a top 5 OL. With or without coen we good.

Coen isn’t going anywhere. He will be our OC next year.
