Game Thread--Lions vs. Falcons (3 Viewers)

[Onions]

This is NOT Joey Harrington's fault - The play calling isn't even giving the Lions a chance.

 

[Bankerguy]

Another fumble!!!!

 

[Avery]

I really don't understand why Detroit is dropping back to pass on almost every down.It's still pretty early in the game.Play calling is horific.

 

[Hipple Long Ware & Peete]

Harrington is not a bad QB folks....he's on a bad team.

You are half right...time to start

Kind of torn as I'd like to see falcons in the playoffs, but this is really ugly.

When the best play of the game for your team is a punt and the first half is almost over, that tells you something.

 

[Righetti]

I cannot believe that they refuse to play KJ.. Kid looks good in three carries and it's very obvious that they should try to establish the run-game.. Instead it's another game where Mooch refuses to commit to the run

 

[shamrock84]

to the Detroit fans.They're booing their team at every opportunity.

 

[shadyridr]

I believe Lions passed on every 1st down except 1

Not to continue to pile on Mooch, but it's beyond bad play calling.It is really inexplicably bizzare how little he's trying to run and play KJ.

Why shouldn't they?

 

[taz]

Garcia warming up on the sidelines.

 

[shadyridr]

There has got to be something going on behind the scenes regarding Jones and Mariucci. Its completely unexplicable that on the 2nd play of the game Jones breaks off a 20 yard run and you only give him the ball 2 more times.

 

[shadyridr]

Garcia warming up on the sidelines.

LOL its not even Harrington's faultThey should be warming up another coach

 

[Onions]

to the Detroit fans.

They're booing their team at every opportunity.

Why shouldn't they be booing? Are you watching the same game as everybody else?

 

[Righetti]

15 passing plays (13 passes and 2 sacks) to 6 runs.that is Martz-esque

 

[shadyridr]

OK i had enoug of this game. Im not ruining my Thanksgiving cuz of some moron coach whos costing me a playoff spot.

 

[Avery]

I only hope Millen is smart enough to see what a terrible job Mooch is doing.

 

[bts4bkfst]

You heard it hear first: Mooch won't be the Lions coach come December.

 

[madshot31]

Garcia warming up on the sidelines.

They should be warming up the backup head coach.

You don't boo your team just because they're not doing well. Fans are there to support their team. Booing certainly isn't an effective means of support.

 

[taz]

Now in ... Jeff Garcia

 

[Keys Myaths]

The Lions have no idea what the hell they're doing.Garcia now?

 

[cowboyz]

LMAO, they put in garcia, so they decide to start playing

Those fans paid a Hell of a lot of money to watch their team play like crap.They have every right to boo.

 

[Righetti]

in the 2 minute drill we won't see any of KJ...This is Bryson time

 

[mulliganm]

If this were a Sunday gam, I bet this thread wouldnt be two pages

 

[Noahs Troopers]

Would 25 carries, 150 yards not be a good thing? Mooch = Idiot

 

[delusional]

bet joey cant wait to get out of there and to another team, they dont want him there, doesnt seem like they know what to do with Jones either

 

[CGRdrJoe]

LOFL Garcia got rocked.

 

[madshot31]

Question for Lions fan and or people who live in the Detroit are. Is there any presure placed on Mooch, or is it all directed towards Harrington?

 

[Keys Myaths]

Would 25 carries, 150 yards not be a good thing? Mooch = Idiot

Well, down 17 now, it's pretty hard to dedicate to the run.I have a hard time seeing any back with 25 carries when his team is down by 17.

Not in detriot nor a fan but you can tell its all on harrington it seems

there is TONS of pressure on Mooch. like i said a bit earlier... he's gone. the players are apathetic and Millen is getting more pissed by the day.

 

[Noahs Troopers]

KJ should demand a trade out of this hellhole.

 

[bts4bkfst]

KJ should demand a trade out of this hellhole.

my guess is that he knows it's all going to change next year, er, next WEEK

 

[Keys Myaths]

Did I mention that this game is over?

 

[madshot31]

Way to go for it on forth. Its just mind numbing.

You dont watch much houston ball do you?

 

[Onions]

This is HIGH COMEDY - From the top of the organization right down to the bottom, the Lions are awful.Good times!

However, keep in mind that Millen is one of the dumbest guys in the NFL, so I wouldn't be surprised if he sticks with Mariucci.

Well, any back on a team that wins more than one game a year.

It's gotta be the uniform. Once anyone puts it on it renders them useless.

[thewaterboys]

Garcia or Harrington - it makes no difference :X

 

[booda]

OK i had enoug of this game. Im not ruining my Thanksgiving cuz of some moron coach whos costing me a playoff spot.

I am in exactly the same situation. right now the onlyway I keep KJ next year i if Mooch gets fired!

 

[tommyGunZ]

Joey is welcome here in San Diego to backup Drew next year.

 

[delusional]

gotta love my whopping 0 pts from my defense1pt now lol ooooooo

 

[Keys Myaths]

1pt now lol ooooooo

Reminds me of this post:

all you brothas from other mothas have a hard time talking about anything other than TO. WHO CARES!!! Let's talk about guys that play football. Come take a chance and maybe we can all learn something other than what we already know about someone else. The horse is dead and no longer bleeding, let it go...... its ok........ let it go young Jedi's

Yes, that's real.

 

[botabu]

Wow..... both Steve Mariucci and the DET offensive line should be fired. The play calling is horrible, there is NO continuity or rhythm, and the O-Line is worthless.

What happened to Kevin Jones? He must have done something to be in Mooch's dog house

Mooch needs to go..... his philosophy is absolutely horrid.

 

[Keys Myaths]

What happened to Kevin Jones? He must have done something to be in Mooch's dog house

That's my guess.He looked pretty good while he was in there, Bryson's been awful, and Bryson is still out there.

Something is going on.
