Re: Detroit Lions 2022
Looked like the same old Lions to me. I don't know why anybody gets excited about a new season from this crappy franchise. I wish we could fire the owners.

Eagles scored 24 damn points in the 2nd quarter.

Re: Detroit Lions 2022
I generally agree with all the above comments. Where was Hutchinson the whole game? I didn't hear his name called once except for the usual "playing for his home team" bullshit. The Eagles' OTs looked as if they handled him quite, uh, handily. He certainly didn't contain Hurts in the least!
(edit)
Looking at the game stats, Hutchinson was credited with one assisted tackle.
Welcome to the NFL, son. Meanwhile, rookie LB Rodriguez looked pretty awesome.

Re: Detroit Lions 2022
It's early. I don't think anyone(outside of Matt) on this board expected him to come out and make 6 solo tackles and have 4 sacks.moldyoldie wrote: ↑Mon Sep 12, 2022 8:03 am I generally agree with all the above comments.

They/them, non-binary and proud.
Remember that “2000 Mules” was concocted by a circus of elephants.
The right needs to stop worry about what’s between people’s legs. Instead, they should focus on what’s between their ears.
Audacity sucks.

Re: Detroit Lions 2022
Well, that was a fun game to watch! 
It's the kind of Lions game I've always enjoyed best -- our boys coming out of the gate kickin' butt and biting kneecaps before a boisterous capacity home crowd.
In the second half, did I think, "Here we go again"? Well, yes, it's always in the back of one's mind, but with this team ya gotta believe that's where it belongs!
I think the best part was in the locker room celebration when major team props went to tackle Dan Skipper, brought up from the practice squad this week to play LG for an entire game in the face of three injured starters on the O-line, a position he's never played since high school. His answers at the post-game presser were those of a sober realist who's never made an NFL roster out of training camp in six years and has signed 13 NFL contracts that he says were worth less than the paper they were printed on. I couldn't help but be happy for the guy.

Re: Detroit Lions 2022
Their decision to try a 54 yard field goal late is the worst play call they've made this season. Kicker was struggling and a FG only puts you up 6 (so a TD still beats you). They should have either punted or outright gone for it in that spot.
And this isn't unique to the Lions, but it just blows my mind how many coaching staffs in both the NFL and college seemingly lack a football IQ when it comes to late-game play-calling and clock management. In a lot of ways, late-game management is just like chess, being able to play out all the scenarios in your head and crunch the odds/possible outcomes, and so many teams are just terrible at this. For the amount of money they're paid, they should be as good at this in football as grandmasters are playing chess.
