yup. I love the killer instinct.maybe, after it wins him 4 or 5 gamesIts foolishness…it will end up costing him in a big game.Ballz. pure, unadulterated ballz.
But, honestly, with :28 left on the clock- you kick the FG. DC is a different kinda cat. Last year against SF- ooof. Thisbyear, so far? So good.
He also scored two TDs on 4th downsIt’s certainly possible.This coach will cost them a title.
you're not allowed to say that on these boards apparently
Dude gave GB the ball at his own 30. With the wrong RB.
That’s just foolishness.
I get it- it’s always possible. But the risk/reward there seems like the odds favor taking the points and counting on being able to keep GB from driving in 28 seconds.yup.

I have seen dozens of teams set up a FG in 30 seconds.
Yet 80% of the time, it works 100% of the time.Campbell is the ultimate "awesome when it works" guy. If any of these 4th downs failed, he's an absolute moron. But they didn't fail so he's a genius.
Appreciate that. I guess I’m kind of a wuss. Seemed like the clear call to me to kick the FG.Per Seth Walder, win prob was 82% for the FG, 78.3% going for the 1st down. Not a big difference.

Dan Campbell put the game in the hands of the strongest unit
11 straight! longest streak in franchise history
It's bizarre. This guy is electric with the ball and he has 1 target.Reed 0.0 pts not how I want in a bunch of playoff games that is going to leave a mark
Makes logical sense. What are the odds of converting a 4th and inches? Pretty good. What are the chances of preventing a FG drive in 28 seconds? Probably a little betterPer Seth Walder, win prob was 82% for the FG, 78.3% going for the 1st down. Not a big difference.

A similar (to Seth Walder) ~3-4% advantage to kick on 4th down. Not crazy to go for it, considering the way GB moved the ball in the 2nd half and the DET injuries on defense.FWIW 4th Down Bot thought they should have kicked
Yes, I agree it’s totally reasonable in context. I think we also can’t overlook the way he uses these decisions to get his players to buy in. I think it means a lot when your coach trusts you to close out games like thatMakes logical sense. What are the odds of converting a 4th and inches? Pretty good.

But you have to factor in you have a defensive unit with 14 guys out with injuries. Campbell wanted the game in the hands of the players he trusts.
The chant originated in the playoff game against the Rams last year (I was at that gameI have been a Lions fan for over 50 years, I like Goff but do not understand the chants and trying to put him in Canton OH
Whew!
Despite giving Green Bay two incredibly short fields, Lions offense kept counter-punching. Can't fault Detroit's D too much either, as this turned out to be the shootout most people expected it to be. Campbell's Gambles mostly paid off, but man, watching those is nerve-racking! Honestly, it's hard to point towards too much that the Pack did wrong, especially considering the way that 2nd half bounced back and forth.
11 in a row for the Lions for the first time in franchise history. Clinch playoffs two years in a row for the first time since 1995. 10 days to get healthier and prepare for Buffalo.

The chant originated in the playoff game against the Rams last year (I was at that gameI have been a Lions fan for over 50 years, I like Goff but do not understand the chants and trying to put him in Canton OH). The crowd booed Stafford, and when Goff came out the crowd just broke into the chant. It’s totally caught on, and I love it.
Goff delivered, sealing the Lions’ 24-23 victory with an 11-yard pass to star receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown just after the two-minute warning — a typically bold Campbell second-down call — and the chants got even louder. When he reached the locker room, his teammates were joyfully mimicking the “Jared Goff” mantra. He cherished the moment, believing it was a one-off.
“I thought that was the end of it,” Goff said. “But yeah, it’s taken on a life of its own.”
The chant resumed a week later at Ford Field as the Lions defeated the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to reach the NFC Championship Game. Soon after, it went viral, surfacing at a University of Michigan hockey game, a Grand Rapids Griffins hockey game and a high school cheerleading competition in eastern Michigan. The chant has since been busted out at Red Wings and Pistons games, at most Lions road games and at Green Day and Creed concerts.
“Now it’s just a fun thing that everybody’s doing when they’re drunk at a bar, which is honestly just as amazing,” Christen Goff said. “I’ve seen it everywhere. People send me videos; I think somebody got married in Italy and a chant broke out. Now I think it’s Michigan’s inside joke.”
Campbell’s wife, Holly, doesn’t see the phenomenon ceasing anytime soon: “I think 50 years from now, Jared Goff chants will still be happening. I think it’s just a thing now. And it’s beautiful, because it is about the underdog fighting adversity and coming out on top.”
Off by a TD on each side but the Pack by the hook27-24 Lions, GB covers by a hook
I agree about LaFleur but no way would I want that meathead for my head coach.I do love Dan Campbell as a coach
Wish that LaFleur had his killer mentality
If any fan is happy with the choke artist LaFleur I don’t know end to say. He simply shrivels like a raisin in big games. No ball’s and just calls conservative games. He’s really not a great coach.I'd be pretty happy if I were a GB fan right now. They can beat this team, and they were never gonna get the bye anyway. Very solid showing in defeat.

I think if you Frank Luntz-style polled diehard fans and ask them if they prefer the opposing team do A or B in a high leverage situation, doing the opposite of their consensus would be a +EV outcome for the opposing team.
How many Super Bowls does he have?I agree about LaFleur but no way would I want that meathead for my head coach.I do love Dan Campbell as a coach

The meathead has beaten the Packers 6 of the last 7.

I mean, he barely turned his head and Joseph was already there. He didn’t line up Joseph for a pick.Is it? He ran a route.OBVIOUS OPI
the offensive player has a responsibility to avoid the contact
the onus is on #9 not #31
gonna call that every time
It’s like having a kid ride his bike into your car when you are sitting still.
Lions fans would never trade Campbell for LaFleur.I agree about LaFleur but no way would I want that meathead for my head coach.
Get used to the zerosIt's bizarre. This guy is electric with the ball and he has 1 target.Reed 0.0 pts not how I want in a bunch of playoff games that is going to leave a mark
I don't remember the last time I took a zero in my lineup. Not what you are looking for going into the playoffs...now it's either Waddle, Hopkins, or... Thielen maybe? Full on![]()
Or win them one. Look at the numbers. Depleted defense. They could not lose the game on that play.This coach will cost them a title.
Or has 12 wins.Im happy LaFleur isn't as stupidI do love Dan Campbell as a coach

Well, either way the whole 2nd half I thought whoever had the ball last would win. IMO Detroit would have methodically moved down the field and scored a TD instead of a FG.I mean, he barely turned his head and Joseph was already there. He didn’t line up Joseph for a pick.Is it?

yeah, I def see what you mean - it's like when someone makes a left turn in a hallway and inexplicably they look right as they're doing it
usually happens right after you've filled up your coffee mug lol
real time, as soon as it happened, my immediate reaction was "oh yeah, that's just like Cole Kmet on Thanksgiving - twice. Offensive guy has to avoid the contact for it to be a rub route, otherwise it's a pick play."
looking at it postgame, I'm not sure they got it right.

But that would have been more fun to watch, selfishly!!
Just reading the 2nd half comments now, and yes, that is the overarching theme.Man, a lot of Packers fan sour grapes in here.

Unfortunately, while he was a member of the 2009 Saints, he never got a ring. Hurt in TC, was on IR all year.
Who gets a ring is up to the team, so Dan Campbell not getting a ring is because the team only gave them to players on the 53-man roster.
