Washington @ Detroit Game Thread

[colin]

Commanders at Rams and Buffalo at KC, how does that sound for a conference championship weekend?

[KeLLy1278]

The Lions lack discipline.

I don’t even need to watch the rest of this game to know that the Lions are still going to win. Goff may even have another pick in him, but they are a resilient team, and will Come back. I think he had 5 picks in a win this year.

Goff is great when guys are schemed wide open and clean pocket  So are 20 other qbs

I've seen him throw a lot of tight window throws this year.  His biggest problem is he can't do anything off script.

[Blank Stare]

This game is bonkers!

He might be the 5th best in the entire NFL right now, as a rookie. Imagine being a Bears fan watching this game

He’s right behind the Big Four…

oh yea.  I was thinking washington was the 3 seed. 

 

Oh Well, Whatever, Nevermind.

 

Yes The rams would host but then the question is can the city of LA handle that right now?

Good point about LA

I thought this would be the most entertaining game for the weekend and it delivered.

Gronkowski with the brilliant point that if you're in the red zone you need to score touchdowns in a high scoring game.  Strahan making a valid point that you can't turn the ball over if you expect to win.  I am now dumber for having watched this.

By far, the worst group of bobbleheads on TV

This is the anti- KC Chiefs type game

man goff has been great in detroit , where is all this hate coming from for him.

 

goff has been ragged on since he came into the league and for no reason, he has always been good

That’s why he was horrific under Jeff Fisher but magically improved once McVay was holding his hand through every play

And oldest; Johnson is 81 and Bradshaw 76.

There is no courtesy, that entire idea is so far out of an NFL players mind, the rule is you can't hit him unless he is involved in the play, which he was not. That play is the reason for the rule, bad miss by officials.

Well, the QB has to try and make it look good. But they don’t want to get blown up. Very few just stand there and watch. If you’re hauling it to tackle the defender you’re fair to be lit up. ( not head to head of course )

Ive been a fan of his from the get go but he has his limitations. When he’s got a run game going you’re f-d. He can be hit or miss when you’re leaning solely on him and the pass, the lack of mobility is probably part of that problem too. 
 

Again, when he’s on, he’s on. That heater earlier in the year (5/6 game stretch) was nuts!

He's good but.....

How many times is Kevin Burkhart going to mention Brady's 7 Super Bowls? Is that in Tom's contract?

Idk, they need a stop to start the second half to make that happen.

agreed. Goff is a baller. Even in this game, he has made some insane throws. 
 

His first pick was a bad throw. His

second— I’d actually give the defender a ton of credit. Made a great play on the ball.
