Yeah you gotta kick to go up 17 - that was the ball game. I guess analytics can’t account for momentum or three possession games.

Det abandoned the run in the 2H, and bad call on 4th down. Just momentum killer. SF didn’t win the game…Det gave it to them

  HUH?   the possible merchandising revenue for every retail shop within the city, what's confusing?

So close yet so far, maybe by the time you’re 90 you will see a super bowl appearance an_roll_laugh.  Maybe you covered, if so congrats, but you were touting that money line hardthejester.  You also said zack ertz would be a difference maker lol

Drops were huge but play- calling was needlessly over zealous at times in the game and that cost detroit.

DET was a public dog and they still covered the spread.  Dan Campbell is a whopping 41-25 (62.1% !!!) ATS in his career as DET's head coach.  The "great" Bill Belichick is only 276-220-13 (55.6%) ATS in his career.

Lions really had to work at it to give that game away. Those 4th down plays were absolute killers for the lions. Makes no sense at all. Then i think he threw the ball both times on 4th n short. He has to much confidence in goff a 3rd rate QB.

lions will descend and won't be the same next year. for a player it's super deflating to go out there and bust your tail and your coach does things to detract from your efforts

@ undermysac post #32 I truly expect better from you Gibbs lost them the game come on just a ridiculous post from someone that has more football sense. SF comes out in the second half absolutely need a td to get back in the game Lions D stiffens they get a fg pressure is still on them. I'm sitting on my couch ok go back down the field and at least respond with a fg of your own and that lays the pressure right back on them your up 27-10. Gibbs cost them the game come on undermysac your better than that.

@ NONEEDFORLUCK post 38 Love Dan Campbell Love the Detroit Lions but those players that worked their ass off all year and for Goff who deserved to go to a SB and to have your coach pull the rug out from under you and he did that's why I started this thread. Someone mentioned in this thread that Andy Reid or Sean Payton kick the fgs in those two situations thats what smart coaches do this isn't the reg season and you still have 6 or 7 games to correct things not kicking the first fg with 22 or 23 mins left in the game to go up 27-10 how fuking stupid was that.

@ jdmoney14 SF was so badly outplayed the entire game and you bring up Zach Ertz I figured one of you little assholes would be in here putting up some stupid post like that dumb ass post.

@ monkeebooger If its fourth and inches sure give it a try 4th and 2 no matter kick the damn fg you miss so be it at least its on the kicker you still have faith in your coach for making what was the right decision.

@ jdmoney14 I actually took the alt at Detroit -1.5 +300 because like I said in all my threads Detroit was the better team and they were just dumb ass mistakes by their coach cost them. You win some you lose some won't be the last time I lose a bet but should have taken home the cash in that one for sure.

@ rosswinn97 They won't descend Ms Ford has opened the purse strings she runs the team now she will just tell the boys go get more the best FA you can get they will shore up the back end and most likely add to that already potent Offense the won't descend and will win the NFC North again next year.

 Well said. When Reynolds’s dropped the 4th and 2 I knew Det was done. The momentum was more important than the 3 pts. He should have kicked it.

Detroit completely outplayed SF. They were the better team. Not by a little either.

 Even though SF came back, nothing was easy. Purdy was sascked twice, where he got out of it.

Campbell needs to learn that a regular season game, and the NFC Championship require more concise decision making. You can coach them the same.

 

I was surprised on some of his calls/ not just the FG/4th down choices, but why not throw to ASB on 4th instead of Reynolds? He is money.

 

They dominated the first half with edge rushes and playing the edges in the first half. They went away from that in second half.

 

Detroit completely outplayed the 49ers except for a few really boneheaded plays. SF took advantage of that.

 

Dan Campbell , hopefully, got experience in the worst way possible.confused

 I agree I would have taken fg.. but the dude is the reason the lions have turned relevant. Bring aggressive is what he is, so it comes with him. He’s not going to change his style. Players dropped first down catches, db’s dropped int’s…. So many other things played into it.

This.

If it weren't for Campbell, they wouldn't of gotten where they are now. He built the culture and brought in the players he wanted.

Anyone who is calling for his head is out of their mind. Fire him then what? Bring in who? Like everything will play out the same? A new guy would be able to get them to the nfc championship, and at that point make the right decision to kick a fg(or not), and everything works out fine and dandy?
