Lions postgame

Tired of hearing this BS about communication. If you're 3 years into your program and communication is still an issue, you either have the wrong players or you're the wrong coach. Either way, fix it already.

Spot friggin' on. Inexcusable.

Honestly it is both. Wrong coaches. Wrong players. Not sure it is fixable.

Only way this team is ever fixed is if we hire some young unknown who turns out to be a great OC/DC and we make him a HC. Because no established anyone is coming to play for Snyder. Either that or we start drafting and working FA so well that our personnel overshadows our Coaching woes.

Last thing I remember we had a ton of cap space and some good young pieces and somehow we got worse. It is a huge fail.

I can't get on board with the idea that the sky is falling yet. Perhaps it is, but it's really too early to tell. It's been two games against two pretty good teams.

I just see inconsistency, which can be fixed.

At the end of the year the Jags and the Lions will not be considered pretty good teams, and it isn’t just the third game it is the third year now. As always love your optimism Chief. Seriously.

We'll see.

The Colts were supposed to be a serious playoff contender with Matt Ryan at the helm right? All they needed was a QB who can get it done. And the Jaguars just blew them out 24-0.

The Lions lost by 3 points to the team everyone thinks is going to come to Maryland and blow away Washington. And I don't want to hear about 'garbage points'. The Lions scored a TD on 4 of their last 5 drives starting before the first half ended. The shortest TD drive was 72 yards.

WAS, DET, JAX - all 1-1.

Everyone gets caught up in what these teams were last year, but every year some bottom-of-the-barrel teams make noise.

That's why I say it's really to early to come to any conclusions - about most teams. Buffalo may be the only exception right now. They are for real.

I, too, can't get on board with the "Chicken Little" idealism that the sky is falling as I've watched sports far too long to see things gradually or suddenly change within a season.

Do I think Detroit and Jacksonville are good teams? Not sure. But I'm gonna lean towards average for now.

I haven't forgotten how our team was playing pretty decent football and in the 6th spot before injuries and Covid ravaged the latter half of the season. I think I've told anyone who'd listen verbatim. If we can get back to playing that sort of ball, to go along with what we're witnessing offensively, then we could be potentially cooking with gas.

I'm not yet writing off this season and I'm sure not writing us off on Sunday.

It's a big problem when an opposing team ID's a weakness, attacks it all game for huge chunk plays and we can't figure it out and resolve it. When it's recurring like that? It's not just on the players, it's on the coaches too. So I feel like we have good reason to be concerned.

We definitely have problems. I'm not on the field though, so I don't know if the coaches are actually identifying things, and players are still not executing... We are all speculating based on what we are seeing/hearing. There's reason to be concerned for sure, I'm just saying it's early, and there have been some pretty good defensive stops, along with some head scratching big plays. I think it boils down to inconsistency. You can put it on the coaches, the players, or both...but it's the players on the field making or not making the plays.

When Swift fell on his ass and the three-four players that had a chance to tackle him didn't - I can't put that on the coaches.

When Sweat doesn't get up-field or recognize the jet sweep, and WJ3 has tunnel vision on the receiver he is covering and fails to identify the jet sweep coming to his side - or at least honor it - I can't put that on the coaches.

Every team gives up chunk plays. We just have be better at limiting them. It's way too early to make the assumption that what we are seeing can't be fixed.
