KD in CA Posted October 27, 2013 Posted October 27, 2013 Are you freaking kidding me?? Who's covering him, Justin Rogers?? He was actually pretty well covered on several of his last catches. And his longest of the day was all YAC. NFL RZ showed a ton of the 2d half of this game; very entertaining.
djp14150 Posted October 27, 2013 Posted October 27, 2013 The sick thing is I wasn't that shocked they were able to go 80yds in a minute and no time outs. Someone needs to wake up Brian Billick and welcome him to 2013. 27-24, 3:30 left. Lions with 3 time outs. 1st down run for -3yds. 2nd down run for 1yd. 3rd down incomplete. Billick: "Oh no they stopped the clock! That's the risk you run by throwing!". Right Brian - the 3rd down throw is the problem with this sequence. Because 2:30 isn't enough time for NFL teams. Pretty much why old recycled coaches are stupid in a nutshell. Actually in retrospect....they just run--force Detroit to use a TO then given the 4th down stop Dallas would have been able to run out the clock. What also hurt them was Dallas penalty in 3rd down that allowed them to keep the clock with a minute left.

I promise you this was not on Billick's mind - he actually thought the Lions might run out of time on one drive with 2:30 and a time out. And ya they could've clocked it down to 20sec's without the holding penalty, which cost 'em the game. Edited October 27, 2013 by BuffOrange
boyst Posted October 27, 2013 Posted October 27, 2013 Who did we draft instead of him? I hate that player, whoever it is.

Big Turk Posted October 27, 2013 Author Posted October 27, 2013 Its great to find good things to keep your mind off the bills loss. Watching the Lions take a **** on the Cowboys definitely cheered me up. And watching the Jets play like a division II college team is also giving me a quarter chub. What is with the Jets? Second time they got blown out on the road...first was against Tennesse when Fitz came in and tossed a 77 yard TD...
