That’s on coaching The D’s “billing” was set with the likes of Hyde, Edmunds, Rousseau, Miller, White factored in. Hamlin, Dodson, Love, Lawson and Jackson played exactly how you’d expect them to. It’s frustrating to watch and can get better… but 25 points on the road against a top 5 offense with 4 or so starters missing isn’t the colosal failure you’re making it out to be. If/when we get those “billed” names back playing and these problems persist… then you have an argument. Otherwise, it’s a pretty shallow discussion. 2 2
TheBrownBear Posted November 24, 2022 Posted November 24, 2022 Detroit offense averages 405 yards/game at home. We held them to 325 without Edmunds, White, Miller or Groot. But let's fire Frazier. 5 2 1

You have not made that clear.
JY422 Posted November 24, 2022 Posted November 24, 2022 Of all the dumb threads on this site… this may be the dumbest… and that is truly saying something. Happy Thanksgiving though. for real! 1

Guy is using the 2nd string squad out there with 3s too and winning and people talk about firing him. Top 3 defense in the league with half the starters out 4
Nextmanup Posted November 24, 2022 Posted November 24, 2022 For some reason, BOTH coordinators receive enormous criticism from the fanbase. There are so many variables that go into what we see on the field, there is no way to even know what is a mistake from a coordinator or not. And yet they really do seem to be hated by a certain % of the fanbase.

No stats for him in gamebook though. https://nflcdns.nfl.com/liveupdate/gamecenter/59002/DET_Gamebook.pdf Klein substituting for Edmunds made a big difference compared to previous game. 1

Besides Dane I thought d played pretty good. Was a time when this Detroit team had the highest scoring offense 1
nedboy7 Posted November 24, 2022 Posted November 24, 2022 You remind me of the GDT.

I didn't see White out there at all in the 2nd half.

Based on Detroit's defensive record, the bills should have 40 points.... The Lions, Bills, and Chiefs are the only teams with 5 games with 30 or more points.

Ban people for having a different opinion? Here's a better idea...as long as they aren't breaking the rules, keep scrolling. 1
John from Riverside Posted November 24, 2022 Posted November 24, 2022 They are not playing like a top-five defense right now, but in their defense, they are really beat up missing a lot of key players

D played outstanding today, AJ Klein was great, no Rousseau, Miller, Espeasnsa, Edmunds and got the win great coach getting the backups to preform, Great draft pick in Oliver, Glad you are not the coach because you started a idiotic thread. The D did NOT play outstanding. They gave up countless 3rd and longs and couldn’t make a stop when they needed to. If Campbell wasn’t so bad at clock management, we could be talking about a different game.
Billz4ever Posted November 24, 2022 Posted November 24, 2022 (edited) Outside of Jackson getting picked on repeatedly all game, the defense played pretty well given who we have out. The tackling was indeed sloppy, but I've seen worse. Make no mistake, the Lions have a good offense. People should be more upset how anemic the offense was in this game, but they scored enough to win and made some big plays when they were needed. Edited November 24, 2022 by Billz4ever
