TMAC Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 Earlier in the season, Dan Campbell played not to lose against the Vikings and lost. He did the same thing today. I thought Todd Bowles was terrible but this guy is worse. Fortune favors the brave, Dan. He has no business calling plays. If his team didn't play hard, I would relieve him of his head coaching duties right now. Today's game shows you why the Lions are at the very bottom of the NFL toilet bowl year in and year out. Even worse than the Jets. I actually feel sorry for their fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saleh would never. Saleh said during his press conference that he tries not to show emotion/anger over a players mistake and prefers to deal with it out of the spot-light (that btw is the proper way); he shows excitement when the team/player does well, he will show anger at the officials, but not at a player - behind closed doors is another story. 10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TokyoJetsFan Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 I often go to read the lions board whenever I feel depressed about being a Jets fan. It’s weird to see an identical fan base except they often say SOL instead of SOJ https://thedenforum.com/t/that-s-it-stop-defending-him/12891 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

undertow Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 Just curious is it year 1, 2 , or 3 of the Detroit rebuild? Do they also have a genius GM who needs 5 years to clean up the mess from the past? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the few fanbases that I think has had it even worse than us They have undoubtedly had it worse than us. Pretty sure they've only won 1 playoff game in the last 50 years. At least we've gone to AFC CGs and won a Superbowl (albeit over 50 years ago). They're a "never was" type team. Having said that, though, they've been in a lot of games. They could've beaten the Ravens had it not been for the longest FG in NFL history in the final seconds of the game. They lost by 2 to the Vikings, 3 to the Browns and 2 to the Bears. They also tied the Steelers. That's 5 potential wins where they've instead gone 0-4-1. As painful as this must be for them, I get the feeling they're not as bad as they might seem. We, on the other hand, are getting blown out week after week. They lost 34-11 to the Bengals and 44-6 to the Eagles. We've been blown out 5 times. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve gotten blown out more often than not, and at times looked like a team that’s quit. We’re about to finish bottom two in the league for the second year in a row. Don’t worry about the Lions, lol.

Don’t worry about the Lions, lol. but Saleh has 2 wins, and against 2 good teams. i have been told that the only thing that counts. and he has Goff who right now is alot better than our QBs. he might not be the best but Goff is too good to have zero wins. so yes Campbell worst than Saleh.
