Lions at Cardinals gameday thread 9-27-20

[TJ]

Kyler is good, but it’s mistakes like this which keep him outside of top-10

 

[Finito]

Worst half of football all year.

two ints, missed extra point, stupid offensive penalties

 

[BritCard]

2nd half needs more Kyler runs and more deep shots.

The Lions D isn't good.

We would be 7 up at least without the INTs

 

[Zeno]

some? He’s just flat out BAD in coverage.

I am not going to argue that at all. Budda is a great tackler, great teammate and a hustle player, after that I run out of positives.

 

[Evil Ash]

some? He’s just flat out BAD in coverage.

He's Adub par 2. He can cover within 5 yards of the LOS but after that not so good.

The soft zone we're playing doesn't help either

 

[Hypothesis]

Easily one of Kyler's worst games so far. Lots of mistakes today. Mistakes rookies make. Misreads, bad throws and a bonehead intentional grounding. Hopefully he turns it around in the second half.

Worst half of football all year.

And only down 4

 

[dscher]

Adversity. Perfect!

 

[Finito]

And only down 4

lol true

 

[Zeno]

That’s an insult to AW.

 

[Russ Smith]

Sucked but not a big deal the thing there is you can't turn it over again, he avoided the pressure and got rid of it. Live to fight another day

 

[Jetstream Green]

So far, the Falcons blow a 16 point lead on cue and DK Metcalf gets the moron award choosing to cruise into the endzone on a deep pass and gets the ball punched out

 

[Shane]

He's Adub par 2. He can cover within 5 yards of the LOS but after that not so good.

Adub was way better in coverage his 25 career Ints and passes defenses prove that

Worst half of football all year.

Let's hope we play the inverse of last game

 

[BritCard]

Did any of you see the DK Metcalf muffed TD?

He caught an deep pass and was showboating into the EZ. Trevon Diggs hustled back and punched it out the back of the EZ on the 2 inch line.

DK looked like a chump. Great hustle from Diggs.

 

[wit3card]

And only down 4

Because we play the lions, with seahawks or rams we would be down 24-10

 

[GuernseyCard]

We'll win if Kyler doesn't find 'brain fart" ways to keep them in the game and our DC stops running scared with that "bend don't break" crap against a gunslinger.

 

[ReasonableMan]

He's Adub par 2. He can cover within 5 yards of the LOS but after that not so good.

Maybe at the end but AW was one of the best for decades

 

[GuernseyCard]

Because we play the lions, with seahawks or rams we would be down 24-10

Nope. We play up or down to the competition.

 

[Evil Ash]

That’s an insult to AW.

But true. Adub was best as a blitzing safety that acted as an extra LB (and he was fantastic in that role).

You put him 20 yards back to cover someone, he didn't do well

 

[BritCard]

I don't understand why Kyler is struggling.

The Lions D is easy to read. It's pure man coverage. Their DBs ain't good. You could probably throw it up for Nuk most downs and he'd grab it.

 

[Finito]

Adub was way better in coverage his 25 career Ints and passes defenses prove that

people really forget how good that dude was.

he was special

 

[Evil Ash]

Maybe at the end but AW was one of the best for decades

In coverage? Not really. It was not his strength. Better than Budda maybe but not that good

Being a tackling machine around the LOS was his strength

 

[Cheesebeef]

people really forget how good that dude was.

he was special

agreed.

he wasn’t Ed Reed out there in coverage but he was a hell of a lot better than Buddah who is flat out clueless in coverage.

 

[Buckybird]

I still say the Cards will nothing more than mediocre until Vance Joseph is fired as DC. I’ve said it for 2 years now
