Better playcalling on those two. However, early part of the game (while they were scoring) Grizz had no answers.Honestly have no idea how it could be play calling when on that drive Mayfield overthrew an open Tez in the end zone and under threw an open Egbuka in the EZ
Watching a different game.
Baker was awful tonight.
Charlie Heck’s turnstile blocking technique was responsible for a lot of Baker’s mindset. He was clearly rocked by the pressure. Not sure there are many teams that can out that much pressure in Baker, but ever team will be trying from now on.
As DH said, we didn’t need this one as we were ahead of schedule, but it also revealed some playcalling issues that are concerning.
We also lost even more with Evan's and Reddick going down.
Saints could be more of a struggle than first thought.

Late in the last drive when it was 4th and a mile, I think, they kept White and maybe Otton (at least a chip) in. I have to watch it again so might be off but that's the impact of having players who cannot execute. Ripple effect.
Tough loss but still lots of positives. The one thing I would say is the team can't win with Mayfield playing that poorly.
at least not against a good team
Bucs throw up another dud with injuries.
Tez is pretty amazing. Great TD but Aldo ran into his teammates a couple times lol
No they can't because they can't play a defensive game and win. We can't shift gears and play ball control when you are getting sliced and diced by Gibbs. You gotta wonder if Baker is a bit banged up when he misses wide open guys.Tough loss but still lots of positives. The one thing I would say is the team can't win with Mayfield playing that poorly.

You haven't been watching the game?
well I described what I saw - two end zone misses by Baker
was that wrong? Those receivers were not open?
That brings our total up to 16 playing against soft coverage
When is Goedeke back? After the bye I assume?
Heck looks like he should be playing PF in Israel not RT in the NFL.

JBF has suggested twice that Goedeke is done for season.
just passing the info fwiw

dont follow but no big deal
I actually don’t think he’s coming back.When is Goedeke back? After the bye I assume?

I was half-joking when I asked about a trade for a RT… now I’m serious.
Also: an ILB, and Edge.
It’s a toss-up which is more important, just don’t think Licht believes it’s a priority.
Maybe also a WR - broken collar bone for Mike.
If we run Heck the rest of the season we are cooked
This one hurts. Bad.
we all knew such a game will come
bad luck with mike, absolute legend and all-time biggest buc on offense, we can only hope he comes back for another season! btw, broken clavicle can heal in ten weeks, however not sure if that applies to a football player who gets hit all the time
You're not going to win football games very often against good teams when your QB sports the opponent an entire half.
In the first half the Lions had the ball for almost 19 minutes. A big part of that is an offense that is 1-6 on 3rd downs. A big part of that is a QB who is 9 of 16 for 47 yards with 2 sacks and one INT . . a rating of 35.4.
A big part of that is an offensive line getting whipped by 4 rushers
