Hold them accountable? What do you mean? Fans don't have the power to hold anyone accountable.

Head coach

The worst part about today is the forum realizing that Kyler is still Kyler and we drafted an elite #2 WR.

Who said that?

Tough loss though for sure but the Lions are a better team.

There were some claiming this was a must win. I didn’t get it either.

And as impressive as the d was in the second half, they couldn’t get the crucial final stop to give us a chance to tie.

Nah. The gave the offense plenty of chances to win this game. If you told me we held the Lions to 20 pts. I would have assumed we won.

The thing I liked least about this game was both 4th down calls.

The first? Ok, not that bad to go for it but either sneak it with Tune or run Conner. You run wide it's into their strength which is speed.

Second time? Don't go for it. Too far, too early, punt it and pin them back.

That's what I think.

I agree. There was 5 minutes left in the 3rd quarter but we left emotion get to us. Yes we had a pick and settling for a fg would hurt but the it would have made it 20-13. But going for it with nine minutes to go in the 4th quarter totally flipped the field.
We had 4 or 5 drives start inside our own 10 yard line.

Is there a free website that gives stats like percentage of balls caught, drops?

We had 4 or 5 drives start inside our own 10 yard line.

That was really hard to overcome

You probably though Mayfield was the problem in Cleveland as well.

Don’t care about mayfield

Lions outplayed us in all 3 phases. They were my preseason SB pick, so I guess we’ll see how that holds up. I look at them as the blue print for how we want to slow cook this thing. Check out where they were at early 2022 and it wasn’t very impressive. We’re still on schedule overall imo.
