Purdy runs like someone is chasing him in the streets 

[JetsFanatic]

Remember the Lions are part of the “axis of incompetence” along  with other franchises like the Chargers, Browns, Bengals , Jets & Falcons.

These franchises are losers. In those years that they actually experience success they find a crazy way to blow it and lose in heartbreak fashion.

Game turned on the decision to go on 4th down.  Although if Reynolds catches a ball that hit him in the hands, it wouldn't have mattered.

I understand this is what Campbell does but he has to understand the situation better. You can go up by three possessions on the road with a SB birth on the line or you can do what he did swinging all momentum the other way. The benefit of getting that was not worth the risk and the Lions are paying the price right now. 

[PS17]

Feels like the Niners are up 10.

Dan Campbell ****ed up. **** the analytics 

Did the analytics actually say to go for that one rather than go up 3 scores?

Brilliant phrase!

Kinda seemed like the Lions were breaking out of that this year now it’s TBD. They need an answer on this drive. 

[Lith]

So, if you are a Lion fan, are you thinking:

a) We were dominating the game until a string of mistakes, just get back to doing what we did in the first half and we will be fine, or

b) Are you out on the ledge ready to jump because you had your chance, effed it up and you just know your team is cursed

As a Jet fan i would be right out on that ledge right about now.

More like check your ego.

All those dumping on Campbell… it wasn’t a chip shot FG.  Going for it on 4th helped get the Lions here.  If all it took was an unsuccessful try on 4th down to blow a 2 score lead then the Lions don’t belong in the SB.

[GreenFish]

Lions are collapsing.

This is just pure nonsense.  That's like the argument that the Falcons got to the SB with a hurry up offense so they didn't need to at least run the clock down before snapping the ball when up 28-3.

[PS17]

Get Reynolds off the field. What the **** 

[Rhg1084]

Brutal drop Reynolds… Lions are cooked!

[TheAustrian]

See our new nr2 reynolds

[Pac]

Not entirely sure why I feel this way but fk the Lions. 

Glad they collapsed. 

[Lith]

In tonight's game, Josh Reynolds will be playing the role of Zay Flowers.

[GreenFish]

That punt would have stayed at the 2 but the defender. 

[TuscanyTile2]

Ugh, the poor Lions fans.  This looks like a collapse.

[HessStation]

Get this loser off the field 

[Jet_Engine1]

Take Reynolds helmet from him and tell that mush to hit the shower.

[CanadienJetsFan]

Oh madone…

I know how this movie ends 

[TuscanyTile2]

Now they blow the Morstead-esque punt by stepping in the EZ.

[HessStation]

Embarrassing #27 and #8 are cut immediately after the game lol

[K_O_Brien]

Reynolds and Zay Flowers

[Pac]

If a meathead head coach is gonna win a SB I want it to be our meathead. 

[Aussie Jet]

Lions committing mental errors by the dozen. Ever since Dickie Cimini tweeted about it's been years and years since a team has come back from a 17-point half-time deficit in the Championship Game, it's been the 49ers all the way.

[TuscanyTile2]

The Lions are on the precipice of an enormous crossroads.

[GreenFish]

Must suck being a Lions fan. I’m cool with my Jets getting knocked off in October. This looks brutal.

The only silver lining to this dumpster fire 

[LockeJET]

The lions are completely choking away every aspect of the game. Coaching, offense, defense, and special teams. You go up three scores with a few minutes left to go in the third quarter. Completely idiotic move by Campbell. I don’t care what they’ve done all year that wasn’t the moment to go for it.

No that’s the point! When these franchises taste success and are about to break away and take the next step to the Super Bowl fate steps in and prevents it. In this case,  idiot Campbell goes for a first down instead of kicking a FG and going up by three scores.

 

[fusionCA]

Let's go niners 

[Aussie Jet]

Reynolds was signed by the Lions to be Goff's security blanket, since they played together at the Rams. What a bad time for Reynolds to turn into Allen Lazard.

[ausman]

There’s something to be said for having been here before.
