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.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F  
    • You gonna make me post Stank before every game?  I kid, I kid.
