Tarik Cohen just shushed his home crowd.
That'll win over the fans.

With Stafford out, Detroit has zero weapons.  And Patricia has shown less than Nagy as a head coach.

Detroit is giving up 450 yards a game.   The Bears will end up close.

The Lions don't blitz and play almost exclusively man.   Don't generate turnovers.  Don't make adjustments defensively.

The team has no running game.  With Stafford out, there is no hope.  Time to play for draft position.

Never mind.  Lions blitz one time all game and it works.  The Bears ARE almost as bad as Detroit.

Agree on everything. With Stafford out they should have taken more shots downfield to Golladay. Especially on 3rd downs.

A lot of people lost their suicide pool today on this one.  I had a bad day...lost this one, KC, Giants, ugh.

There’s a time to be aggressive. 2 seconds left in the half up 4 and getting the ball back is not the time. Especially when you’ve been bad down near the goal line all year.

I don't mind the call. But I would have done play action, and then pass it to Graham in the flat.

Radio guys were all for it because of what LaFleur was preaching about toughness all week. Didn’t work but the call wasn’t a poor one.

Packers have gotten some favorable calls. These things mostly even out.

Analytics.

In theory it makes sense with that much time left. You’re going to get at least 2 more possessions, so I’d you cut it to 6 you can get 2 field goals and send it to overtime. If you don’t get it you still have the chance to go for 2 and tie the game.

The idea is that the chances are more than 50% that you get the conversion. So you figure one out of two with the possibility of two out of two.

It doesn't matter, but on the last play, the offensive lineman clearly grabbed and pulled Mccaffrey forward. It is a penalty to pull the ball carrier forward, why is that not called there?

But the statistics are a 47.9% conversion rate.

How many unforced errors in the last 8 minutes?

1. Run play clock down and call time out.
2. Run play clock down and rush to get it off causing terrible play.
3. Run play clock down and take penalty.
4. Offsides with game on line.
5. Another offside call with game on line.

Definitely was in. But pretty sure it's illegal to pull someone in on your team so the refs called the stand.
