Media hyped him. He has a big ego. Had to be the star of the game. Should have just kicked the FG and win it in OT.

 

Main reason I'm not buying the Lions hype is because of their HC.

 

Wilks>Campbell I didn't forget!

 

Playoffs on the line Wilks spanked them. But Campbell is the next great HC lmao

I agree with your points and I am wondering what’s the hype with Ben Johnson.. his offense is blah with better players than we have .. not sold on Johnson

The Lions defense had been solid all night. If Campbell doesn’t have confidence in his defense to get a stop in OT after kicking the XP in regulation then I think that says more about him as a coach than going for two multiple times does.

If he doesn’t think his defense can get a stop in OT then he needs to prepare his defense better but going for two from the seven yard line (even though there was a penalty) and then again from the 4 is just dumb. Even if you have three plays drawn up that you’d deem are a success, the odds that you succeed are slim.

Just bad coaching.

Dan Campbell’s aggression fugs his team way too much.

Passed up free points in the first half which in hindsight would have won the game for the Lions and then continuing to go for two three straight times instead of sending the game to OT is idiotic.

I’m all for being aggressive but some of his decisions are moronic.

I agree with this. You can't just be over aggressive for the sake of being over aggressive. It will lose you close games like this one.

 

How about that performance from Hutchinson tho? That's what we dream Burns could be an absolute game wrecker. 

I wouldn't have minded trading burns to Detroit for their round 2 and round 3  picks, honestly.

He got cocky. That special teams call got him a 1st down. Dude started feeling himself and went for it again late trying to be the hero.

 

He's just to cocky for me. Media loves him though lol

Hutchinson was a force tonight which makes Campbell’s decision to continue going for two even more baffling.

The Lions defense was playing solid. The Cowboys only drove the field once, the other TD was just CeeDee Lamb being CeeDee Lamb.

I don’t get the decision.

    • 4610 total yards 27 total touchdowns 8 yards per attempt. Completion percentage was usual Cam ie mediocre or below at best at 57.7 and 86.2 passer rating. But the man scored points and moved the ball at will often. Compared to 2652 total yards 21 total touchdowns 6.3 yards per attempt completion % 60.9 82.2 passer rating. Let's just not do things like this. We can acknowledge Bryce improved (from realistically a bottom 5 QB) and hope he can work his way within the top 15 this season without dragging Cam Newton into it and unintentionally diminishing him. That's all I got to say. Carry on.
    • I personally think you are trying to talk yourself into circles here... It's ok to say Bryce played incredible the last 5 weeks... I know there are plenty of people on this board who desperately need the doom-and-gloom narrative, but I genuinely question how much NFL QB play some of these people really have watched when they still question him being the unquestioned starter for next year...  Again, that being said, no one is crowning him at all. I think Bryce is one of the best stories going into 2025 bc his season last year was so outlandishly unprecedented. It's totally fair to personally not believe in Bryce. Plenty of sports "journalists" need to write stories, and that's an easy narrative path... But I think that actual people in the know rank Bryce much higher. That's the fun thing about sports... we shall see!
    • Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.
