Its also not just this one specific 4th down. That probably could have been like 4th and 2 or something and he still would have went for it. I dont care what analytics say. Sometimes the analytics are right and the call is right but the outcome costs you a game. Sometimes its better to just take the points. Quote

You risk those things happening when you throw the football when you only need to literally fall forward I get that, but I'd be hesitant to be having gangly Goff sticking his head in there a week before the playoffs start. 1 Quote

EmotionallyUnstable Posted January 6 Posted January 6 Kudos to defenses today putting up great pressures and plays by both teams. It really has grounded both passing games. Quote

Most of the mistakes are the result of good pressure defense and not just incompetence, imo. And everybody there is fully engaged too. Just a tough defensive first half. 1 Quote
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted January 6 Posted January 6 Very impressed with this Lions D. Totally shutting down these great Viking receivers. Darnold looking lost out there. 2 Quote

SirAndrew Posted January 6 Posted January 6 The Rams have a decent chance if Stafford gets hot in the playoffs. He’s been there before. Goff is streaky, and Darnold is a giant question mark. Quote
