Game 2: Lions @ Packers - Sunday, September 20th, Noon

Meanwhile, McCarthy and the Cowboys have spotted 20 points to the Falcons.

 

How short is his leash in Dallas? Two years?

 

Part of me always thought Jurrah really wanted the wunderkind OC to be HC, but couldn’t justify it based on his lack of track record. I think MM is just the seat warmer.

The funny thing is Jerry said he hired him in part because he beat his Cowboys all the time. Unfortunately for him, the Packers are not on their schedule this year and as of now, not next year either.

If we can't stop them on 3rd and 25, just forfeit.

What's the 3rd down conversion rate for Detroit today? 32 for 32?

 

Until the last play it’s been 3rd and 1 or 2 all day. First down defense has been the issue. It’s 8 or 9 yards a crack.

[HarveysWBs]

Wow, that was completely unnecessary. Same old Lions

I was worried. That screen was pretty well set up.

[adambr2]

It took a dirty play by the Lions to do it, but we got a stop.

If the NFL is actually serious about eliminating stuff like this, you need to toss a guy for a play like that. 15 yards isn’t enough to discourage it, apparently.

If I were the Lions, I'd make sure Lancaster is on the field as much as possible.

Leader in the clubhouse for comment of the day.

Nick Bosa and Solomon Thomas had to be carted off for 49ers with leg injuries.

[yourout]

That was a really weak holding call

Seconded..... Solid effort.

It looked like the ref assumed the hold when it wasn’t actually there.

I'll be here all week.

Bad choice and bad throw

[adambr2]

Cool, now that'll be a concussion for MVS.

[PinaMadness]

Reminiscent of Robert Brooks on second last play of the Denver Super Bowl.

To be honest, the refs kinda owe DET a couple from last year. Not that keeping score on bad penalty calls ever got me anywhere as a Packers fan, but it is what it is.

Bad choice and bad throw

 

It wasn't a bad choice. He was open, just a terrible throw.

[wildcat83]

Jonathan Taylor has 18 first half carries for Indy. So much for him and Hines both getting work, lol.

Bad choice and bad throw

 

It wasn't a bad choice. He was open, just a terrible throw.

It's just those sideline throws are low percentage and seem to be me more miss than hit.

[adambr2]

That barely ever works anymore.

[adambr2]

This is where all those presnap timeouts really come back to hurt us.

[yourout]

Could that be a safety if the running back was in the end zone?
