[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 1050224, member: 10086"] Ok first, I’m not as much in disagreement, but playing Devils advocate. Last night I went back and watched the condensed version (33min). I was actually surprised. Aside from what seemed like dozens of mistakes, the Packers Offense rolled over Detroit pretty good. Particularly on the ground, Detroit really had no answer for Jacobs. Either he got 0.5 or 8 yards or busted one open. Jacobs touched the ball 15 times for 108 yards or 7.2 per touch. Had we not gotten behind? I think he goes ~28 X 6.5 for 182 yards. I almost forgot we had an unusual number of drops. Detroit was not plagued with drops but we were and it was across the board by multiple players. It was raining and Detroit nearly muffed a Punt similar to Miami. Even Goff had some wobbly passes they thought were tipped. We had an unusual # flags. At times it almost got ridiculous. Maybe the Refs were a little too flag happy also. We should’ve had a TD on the first Drive (-4 points) Without the flag likely would’ve had a 1st down on 3rd drive and creeping inside their Redzone. It was 1st n 10 at the Det32. For myself that area in that rain it’s 4th down territory if you get 8 yards. We pulled a 2020 NFC Championship Game redo. Pass incomplete Pass incomplete Pass incomplete. Pass incomplete. Pass incomplete. Ok I’m being ridiculous but you get the point. Why not run there? We were creating 7+ carry!!! Mix in a pass but even 7-8 yards is MASSIVE to get a shorter FG or 1st down there. THEN Pass! The way we flowed? it could’ve been a TD 50/50. At very least a 30-something yard FG try. (-3 points) Forget about the INT. Just that minor stuff above was a 10 point swing. I really think had we executed on the easy stuff better. 3 drops instead of 6 5 flags instead of 10 We see a nail biter at the end. Had we ran cleaner? Maybe a 1 score Packer lead in the 4th. Not saying Lions couldn’t steal the Win, but overall minus the discipline and drops the Packers were the better team. [/QUOTE]
