Good one toss outside run on 4th down. I said it the last time I saw... it seems like those always get stuffed on 4th down

Whoa Herbstreit - “blocking his a off”

I did a double take when I heard that

A pitch on 4th and 1??? At your own 30? Really stupid 

[Chicken Boo]

Beautiful kip up 😄

[T.E.]

If I converted like four straight 4th downs, I would feel like I'm due to miss one. Going for it inside your own 30 up by three was pretty reckless.

Not the best play call on 4th and a long 1

Apparently the call was a sneak, but Goff didn't like the gaps so he killed it and went to the second called play which was the sweep.

No, he got paid like a top-tier talent. He makes $55 million a year.

Campbell is going to regret that last 4th down play

Impressive kip-up from the big TE in full pads.....

Agree. It's wrong to do on that side of side.

It’s like Dan Campbell is a regular Lions fan in the stands calling those plays. “Go for it!!”

As I keep saying, Lions = Billsy

By which you mean, the two best teams in the NFL?

Lots of time left. Should’ve punted.

It's streaming. I think they could, legally drop an F-Bomb.

I love how Campbell just goes for it.  If you do it every time, you'll get most of them if you're a good O - on balance, it's better for your chances.

where does the madness end though? Does he go for it on his own 10 yard line?  He’s up by 3, and GB is in scoring position with a stop. Just bonkers!!

Sure. But Ben Johnson called a dumb play. Sneak it or a quick throw. A toss play relies too much on blocking.

The hyper elevated levels of testosterone running through his veins tells him that the aggressive call is always the right call. It will catch up to him eventually. Law of averages.
 

100 years of punting on fourth down deep in your own territory is precedent for a reason. But he thinks he’s going to reinvent the wheel.

yea right behind Trevor Lawrence and directly ahead of tua and Goff 

 

like I said, no one’s putting him with the josh-mahomes-burrow-Lamar crowd 

 

he’s a top 5-10 guy on his good days, and 10-15 when not on his game. 
 

and he’s paid as an unchallenged starter with some untapped upside
