Never should have been that close. Ron says we won't go conservative... so we do a LOT of three runs and a punt in the second half. Happy we won, but nervous now.

 

Newsflash for the coaches, Arians likes taking big shots downfield and they usually make those plays. If we do this again next week, we're in serious trouble.

We have some work to do on our defense before next Sunday!!!

That was the coaching/play calling. Almost the entire second half they were playing soft. They wanted to let the Seahawks complete passes underneath and keep them in bounds.

100% coaching decision. Brought some attacking defense after the Seahawks got 2 TDs and threatened a 3rd on their 3rd drive of the second half. 4th quarter they went back to the shell to run clock with the defense. Dumb.

It's like we start sucking when we get up big.

It has nothing to do with starting sucking.

If our coaches would LET our players play, they are as good or better than anyone in the league.

A conscious decision to go into a total shell and run the clock out should not reflect on the PLAYERS.

Ron Rivera turned the NFL MVP into the highest paid cheerleader in the league in the 2nd half because thats what he CHOSE to do.

It worked.

But it was ridiculous and it was ugly.

And these Carolina Panthers players could have EASILY won this game on their own, but Rivera had more confidence in his 12th Man, The Clock, over and above his players.

I am, they needed this wake up call. They thought they had it won at half (again), and Seattle made a game of it. We should go no huddle for the rest of the playoffs, Cam is at his best with it. 

how many "wake calls" have they had during the season...already...it is sad how it played out...just glad for the win, though

Are you proud of how that second half played out? Do you think that poo will fly against Bellicheat?

It's been our whole fuging season bruh.  Seattle is a damn good team, just like everyone in the playoffs.   I'm proud we did worse to them in the 1st and won.  poo happens like that in the playoffs.

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that.

      I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
