If it was true.

Jennings also cannot get open. The guy is a bust and nothing more. He is not even worthy as a wr3. Having one decent game every five games makes him a wr4.

GB playing soft here an Detroit is throwing out of the shotgun. terrible.

Capers needs to keep the pressure up even with a big lead. Getting soft will cause issues. Get Underwood in and see what he can do Bush has looked ok but let the young guy play.
Cliffy hurt his hamstring. Shows that next year team will have a new and better starting LT for this team.

Damn, why couldn't the damn Lions score there? Not that it would matter for Jennings anyway, lol.

Nice of Kevin Smith to get them down to the 1 on 2nd down and pull up lame, great for my fantasy team.

Dumb fans booing a result that actually probably helps the Lions chances.

Kevin Smith purposely allowed himself to get dinged up that play...just to mess with your fantasy team.Jesus.Nice of Kevin Smith to get them down to the 1 on 2nd down and pull up lame, great for my fantasy team.

They get the 2 points and the ball in great field position. The get a TD on this drive and they come out ahead on this exchange. Most importantly Green Bay can't burn time off the clock.

I wish they'd get Quinn Johnson in there to run block.

Well they have scored zero on offense since Nelson's fumble turned into a TD. I can't see that logic.

Are you living in an alternate dimension where the Lions offense is capable of scoring? What is the score of the game you are watching? Does Matt Stafford have a goatee that makes him look vaguely menacing?They get the 2 points and the ball in great field position. The get a TD on this drive and they come out ahead on this exchange. Most importantly Green Bay can't burn time off the clock.

In essence via the safety Detroit can score 9 points with 1-2 minutes coming the clock as opposed to 7 points and Green Bay burning 3-4 minutes off the clock.
Whether they execute or not is up to them.

The Packers might have the worst special teams when you look at their coverage, their returns, and the penalties that get.

Do the 9 points make much more difference than the 7 in this case?

On average they are better off getting the 7.

No one here is predicting they are going to. I'm just laying out their best case scenario. And don't look now, but they might pull off exactly what I was describing.Are you living in an alternate dimension where the Lions offense is capable of scoring?

I understand what you are trying to say but teams would always rather have the 7 instead of the 2 and a chance for 9.

Not being able to see the game and following on the NFL gametracker I've noticed the "discuss" option below the stats.
Reading what people post there makes me want to carve my eyes out with a rusty hunting knife. Unbelievable.

2 more points plus less time off the clock as opposed to 7 and the amount of time it would take to get the ball back from GB.

Usually but when down 20 and the clock becoming an issue, you have to hope for best case scenario. And for Detroit it was the 2 points, the ball, and a quick score.
Welp now you are really wrong since they kicked the FG ... good thing i didn't close my eyes

2 + getting the ball > 7 and not getting the ball ( when you are trailing late in the game ) But then again, it's the Lions we are talking about.2>7?

The hole in your logic is the offense can't score.

The TD made it a 2 score game. The safety kept a 3 score game.

Yes, but with the safety you get the ball back immediately in advantageous scoring position. For Detroit to come ahead on that exchange, they needed to punch it into the endzone quickly. They almost did. And that scenario (safety followed by quick TD) was really their only chance.
