Defense has put up a valiant fight.
They’re exhausted after covering for 4 offensive turnovers.
But that all-out blitz McD called on 3rd down near midfield was bad. Really bad.
Unfortunately I agree.
That fire and energy we saw from Allen in previous years simply isn’t there.
We never see him screaming anymore, signaling first down, trash talking, etc.
I’ve been watching the Lions more and more just because of Ben Johnson.
His play calling is so darn creative and fun. And his spacing is beautiful.
We used to run similar concept to this with Daboll. I can’t recall the last time i’ve seen it:
Yep.
This is why those losses to the Jets and Patriots are so disappointing.
We could be #1 in the AFC right now, if we simply beat two teams that are much worse than us.
