Oh yeah, please don't let Skoronek run it out of the end zone, 2x he did and got tackled at the 18-19.

welcome to the nfl... this aint college football

any given sunday is a real thing

Good comeback though - but our game plan against goff has been surprisingly lacking in creativty.

Agree. Lions can't play any better than they did. I see a self-destruct coming. Rams need to turn on the gas to keep them away from any chance to stay close.
We need to be prepared for them not to implode. We can win a slugfest, we're more talented.

Again this is their fucking super bowl. Goff wants to win this more than any game ever. You know how dialed in their special teams has to be to convert an onside kick and fake punt in the 1st quarter as clean as they did? Its unbelievable odds. The probability is so low. So as long as we dont implode and shoot ourselves in the foot, the math should level out and we'll pull away. But if we freak out and lose composure we can lose this game. Thats why it was huge to bounce back the way we did early and take the lead before half.

Morris lacking in creativity? No way. Call me shocked.

Morris probably overthinking and did polar opposite of what he did last week.
Hoping that isn’t the case. Shit needs to start happening now. I am awaiting the Goff show here in the 2nd hoping he folds under pressure.

Nah I think its been fine. He's playing pretty well, but all his yards came on a 70 yard screen called against a blitz on 3rd & 10.... And a 2 min drill before the half. Outside of that they haven't really been moving the ball easily IMO. We need to get more pressure on him with our front 4 though in the 2nd half.

We got this. Get a nice TD drive and put them down right out the half.

The Lions' gameplan is to mash the ball and get us to settle for FGs. Putting them down with a couple scores should blow this open.

We have no sacks so far. Not the blueprint for beating up on Goff. We need to hit him and throw him off his game. Then he will play terrible.

We're becoming the LA Chiefs.

Maybe hire Spags in the offseason? Or, in a week or two when he's fired?

Half the battle is we blitz while in zone and seems to always be an open man. No right coverage.

Took some punches to the face. Then Rams said "Is that all you got?" Let's punch back in the 2nd half.

Yea but Ramsey has been shutting down Hockenson thus far. Love that strategy. If Rochelle/ Long can't stop Kalif Raymond then we deserve to lose. We just need to stop the run and get more pressure on Goff in the 2nd half. I agree tho more man coverage when we blitz, but Morris might be gunshy after that first blitz got torched by the screen.

16 getting the ball out quick like he has so far is the issue. We need to have him hold it which means removing the underneath or at least contesting them.
