I was encouraged…

There were some good things today, which is better than no good things.

The first TD drive was gutsy.  The crowd was hostile, Detroit D was jacked.  They wanted to put us away right there.  

Sanders really fugged the team over.  We had a chance to stay in the game when it mattered and his poo ass coughs up another costly fumble.  This really hurt the team.

Not much else to speak of until garbage yards.  At least he made some throws once the pressure was off.

It wasn’t a good performance overall but it was his best so far.  Let’s just keep hoping for growth because we have nothing else to hope for tbh.

I agree. Bryce has yet to prove that he's the type of QB that can put a team on his back and make the plays to lift his team to a win. He hasn't played up to his draft status yet. Still, he had some NFL-worthy throws (regardless if it was against so-called "soft zones" or not). 

The Lions scheme wasn't necessarily the best fit for deep throws, which I'd still like to see, but Bryce worked that second level with some comfort today. Too bad he threw the easy picks.

By what I saw in the 4th quarter from Bryce.

Look this is an absolute mess but let the kid throw and learn. He did some nice things in the 4th 

I hope next week they go in with the mindset of giving Bryce real game experience. They’ve been playing not to lose on offense and it hasn’t been working and Bryce hasn’t gained anything from it. 

We’re not a good team. So you might as well let Bryce sling it around and see if there’s hope

I was thinking the same thing. Just cut him loose. Can’t be any worse.

Prevent defense for the win! If only teams didn't try in the first 3 quarters

All the positive signs you’re talking about were accomplished during pat stadding trash time.

Atleast we saw some of those flashes this week, I was so tired of the dink and dunk that I was ok with the turnovers just to actually see some of the flashes that bring life to the idea that he's gonna be a decent qb.

The score of the game isn’t the point. The point is he made the plays. A lot of folks here didn’t think he could do that. He made some terrible mistakes early in the game, but he’s 22 years old. 
 

Goff was one of those QBs that also struggled early on. Let the kid develop. It’s clear we aren’t going to win many games or any games so the rest of the season should just be about his growth. 

It's all the point Detroit had all but won the game in the 2nd quarter. Of course they are going to give up plays when they basically go prevent. When the game mattered and was in the balance is when he had the 2 picks which essentially sealed the game for them

Look I’m trying here. He’s shown practically nothing for 15 quarters. I never thought he’d throw for 3 touchdowns garbage time or not

Do I think it’ll be ugly next week against Miami until it’s a blowout? Yes

    • Why does analyzing the motivations and thought process of a failed draft, and coming up with a viewpoint that is different from yours, or anyone’s, have to equal shoe shining? There is a box and it is okay to venture outside of it. Not a shoebox lol. A thinking outside the box  And the box in this case is a prejudice against Fitterer and his subordinates. For one thing. Also an attitude that it was business as usual for the 2024 draft, and it really wasn’t some damned all hands on deck Chinese fire drill trying to cover Tepper’s butt. Fail at your peril.  It is hard for me to understand that being an unrealistic scenario. And yeah I want Morgan to succeed but it isn’t a blank check. Let him do something like trade the 2027 1st round pick for a lightweight edge rusher… see what you hear out of me about that. 
    • I get it but it was still the wrong approach. Need a pass catching back, get one in FA. They're out there. Fill the holes that got you to a 2-15 record with starting caliber draft picks. Just about everything that has been done over the past 3 years has been to prop up Bryce and he still barely got to 3k yards. Part of why I'm still not sold on Dan. Just some really questionable at best team building strategies. The draft results this year were better, but overall, at the end of the season, I don't know that the team is really that much better from when he started. We were a 6 win team that got lucky GB couldn't score on 6 trips into the RZ and the Jets were a train wreck. 16 and 13 point offensive outputs aren't going to usually result in wins. 
    • I loved his approach to cap he'll Hurney left us with. He also called time on a couple guys who were aging out of their contract wants.  That was the good.  The rest, he was just an ass and nobody wanted to see shorts hiked up that high on him ever. They're shorts, not a bra. Thank God one of the twins didn't fall out for the world to see.
