Kmet literally hit to head on a defenseless receiver and no call?

Taylor finally showed his leg and booted a 71-yarder (in the air).

Yeah, he would like that one back. It looks like once he decides to run, then that is all he is focused on. He needs to be able to skip the progression sometimes, and hit the outlet before going through all his progressions.

Yeah, play call vs run call. Can't really control the outcome.

and just for comparison, the Lions have 207 rushing attempts and 204 passing attempts on the season.

10 Pass Attempts, 11 Rushing Attempts, and 2 Scrambles (Pass play), so about as close as you can get to 50/50 mix. This is about as optimal as you can get.

1 incompletion to Moore, Kmet with a drop, Odunze with a drop. Even on the Moore pass, Moore is being held, and he clearly can't get back to the ball on the dig. That wasn't supposed to be an outside throw. Moore just got held.

Monangai is really growing on me. He keeps his legs moving, and on any player other than a DT, he moves them back. On any 3rd or 4th and short, I am giving him the ball every time.

and of course Santos misses a kick, but a penalty saves him.

I love how hard Monangai hits the hole, no pun intended.

When the Bengals are returning the ball on kickoffs, they have everyone blocked. When the Bears kick off, there are at least 3-4 unblocked Bengals. How is that even possible?

Bengals have 137 Yards and a TD on 2 Kick returns.

Too many FGs the last few weeks, need to at least try for a TD. All you have to be is 50% on those and you still have better odds to win than if you only kicked FGs.

DJ Moore with a TD pass to Caleb Williams lol.

Watch his college tape, he made all these crazy contested catches, and now can't catch the ball. It is so bizarre.

Kmet drops a dot on the first play of the game. Then Odunze drops the pass from Kmet with no defender near him. This is getting old.

Yeah he is literaly the worst employee in the entire organization.

Untouched for a 99 Yard Kick return for a TD, unfreakingbelievable.

If you don't fire Richard Hightower after that, you are not a serious organization.

Welp

For Goff, in his first year in Johnson's offense seemed to flip the script after Game 8. Through 8 games, DET was 2-6 and he had 14 TD and 7 INT. In the last 9, they went 7-2 and he had 15 TD and 0 INT. Something clearly clicked for him. His worst QB Rating in the final 9 games was 83.0 which would've been better than 5 of his first 8 games. He had 4 games below 60% Comp in his first 8, then only 1 in his last 9, and that game was 59.5%, in a game where he had 355 yards, 3 TDs, and 0 INT, so the lower Comp% was meaningless. So hopefully we are near that point with Caleb.

Swift's lack of carries following back to back 100 yard games now makes more sense. However, he extends his streak of never having a 3rd good game following back to back 100 yard games. I would assume Moore will get a few extra carries as well. I don't want Homer to touch the ball unless he has to.

Swift, Roschon, Burden, and Robinson out for Sunday. Looks like Monangai gets the start with Homer as the only other RB on the roster?

CJGJ is a ballhawk. 18 INTs in 64 career starts. Jaylon Johnson has 7 INTs in 71 starts and Stevenson has 7 in 36 starts. So as long as they can keep the attitude in check, he will be an upgrade over McCloud, Owens, or whoever else they were plugging in there.

He was but there is a defender off screen who dropped off their guy and Rome is literally running straight at him. If Caleb leads him, Odunze is probably on a stretcher in a neck brace.
