Dan Campbell is an absolute lunatic, but respect to him he’s consistent with that behavior.
He will live and die while being a maniac.
4th and 1 or less on any part of the field he’s going for it.
That mentality is a big part of the reason his Lions are an NFL powerhouse now.
That and having an incredible roster with two coordinators who almost certainly will be head coaches next year.
Faced with a 4th and inches and just 43 seconds left, I think 31/32 teams kick the 3.
None of those 31 are snapping the ball.
The Lions operate differently.
I wonder if the NBC “go for it” analytics meter would have said to kick or not.
It ALWAYS says go, but that might have broke the machine.
Goff actually trips and they still find a way to get it done.
The first half was a period of football to forget for the Packers.
They had virtually nothing going.
Love was being swarmed with pressure and had no time to get the ball out.
Their defense got bullied.
It was all bad.
In the second half the offense flipped the switch with Love being the catalyst.
That dude made some elite throws in the 2nd half.
It’ll get forgotten in the loss, but this is as good as it gets.
This one was a laser to start the 3rd quarter.
Meanwhile, Josh Jacobs bulldozed people on the ground for three scores.
My god does that man run hard.
The Packers scored on 4 of their 5 drives in the 2nd half, including three touchdowns.
I kinda see why Campbell didn’t want to give the ball back.
Green Bay’s outside shot at the division is now cooked.
A win tonight would have made things very interesting, especially for Minnesota.
Even with the loss, the Packers should be fine for a playoff spot.
We’ve had to watch some terrible football games this year.
There are so many bad teams out there.
It was nice to sit down on a Thursday night and witness a great game.
I’d love to see these two go at it in January with everything on the line.
Tucker Kraft is skyrocketing up my list of favorite athletes.
