Thanksgiving Day football, no Bills talk

[Goin Breakdown]

Wow a flag in the Lions. Didn't think they were looking that way.

Bears are supposed to have a good defense…

I mean they’re doing what they have to do for a defense that has been on the field all game. Held them to two FGs and a 3rd down TD. If they had any semblance of offense they’d be in this game right now

Lions have a really good offense. Something has to give

One of the lamest labels given, because the dude works out and can prob break you in half. He was a good football player and has proven to be a good coach. He's probably forgot more about football than you'll ever know.

I think Dan sort of blew the NFC championship game last year. While fully respect his journey and his coaching prowess I feel like the Lions have a Billsy quality to them and will likely have a lot of playoff misfortune

Just an awful game to schedule for Thanksgiving. Let's have Detroit oppose the team that had the #1 overall pick in April. Brilliant!

 

This is complete and utter domination, and I don't care that the Lions had to kick two field goals.

End this tradition of Cowboys and Lions getting automatic Thanksgiving Day games.

Detroit starting like Detroit.

Detroit midgame playing like Detroit. Once they get going they coast a little. It's these last few drives I think that emphasize where the opponents seize the chance for winning. The Goff is capable leaving the ball in the air a little too long, drifting the ball, or missing the window.

3 long scoring drives for the Lions, 3 3 and outs for the Bears

This game is about to get out of control

I don't have a problem with the tradition. Just don't schedule teams opposing them that everyone knows are trash.

It's really led to some dog ***** match ups for too long

It’s already there imo but the score doesn’t show it yet

Please see thread title!

What bothers me about Edmunds is there is nothing to really diagnose on the Gibbs run. It’s straight downhill and Sewell is down blocking on him. What does he do? Instead of meeting Sewell in the hole, he moves laterally opening up an even bigger hole

Smart by Goff

Thank you.  He is relentless with that stuff.

When your own offense is a 3-and-out machine, you can only hang on for so long against a great offense.

[gonzo1105]

Again 4th and short, he’s on the line of scrimmage and instead of attacking the blocker he moves laterally on 4th and inches. The way Edmunds plays is maddening.

These first two games are gonna suck. Lions will win by 30, Dallas will probably blow out the giants
