Re: Lions postgame
Ever since Ron decided to play GM and got rid of Kyle Smith and brought his retreads. we’ve gotten rid of our DL line depth for subpar players

Wow ... DT depth is a problem. Allen playing hurt and Wise NEEDS to be ready vs Eagles. ------------------ Run D - on most runs, there are O lineman getting quickly to the second level and just attaching themselves and locking down the LB, particularly Holcomb. DT needs to keep our LBs clean but our LBs need to shed some blocks and make some plays. If Holcomb isnt getting blanketed with a block he is over pursuing and taking himself away from the attack. Last year, 3rd down pass coverage w Bostic was the achillies heel. 2 games this year, its the run D. 191 yards when their best guy Swift was limited. When you knew they were going to come in and establish the run. When you had all week to come up with a game plan. Holcomb isnt going anywhere .. we didnt add or train another guy to be the green dot. Mayo/bostic arent answers. LB play .... everyone questioned it going into the season, so far its the biggest issue. |

Re: Lions postgame
DL - we entered this season with Allen, Payne, Mathis and Wise. Thats 2 1st rounders, 2nd R and Wise who I think is a really really good 4th DT.
I cant get mad at the FO for going with those 4. That is a strong unit without a hint of injury going into the season. What are we going to do, carry 5 or 6 DT? mathis out, Allen hurt, Wise knocked out of game ... |

Re: Lions postgame
Holcomb is a backup linebacker on a good defense. On our sorry ass trashcan defense, he is our "best" linebacker. This defense stinks. We need another 2 DB's and another 2 LB's before this defense will ever be shit. And they all need to be coached by someone other than JDR.

Re: Lions postgame
Holcomb, Jackson, Rivera , JDR - all stink.
Our offensive line is trash too. This team isn’t winning more than 5 games. |

Re: Lions postgame
I think JDR gets time to try some adjustments and see if he can turn this around.
He did figure out (kinda) the 3rd and long issue after 4 or so weeks last season. Run D .. was not on my list of anticipated issues entering this season. Run D and Terry have been our only 2 consistent strong features past couple years. |

Ben Standig said he heard from the Lions' beat guy that the Lions players including St. Brown told him they had a really easy beat on the defense. They could see on tape there were certain offensive formations that confused the defenders among them they were confident that the fly sweep would work on this defense. And St. Brown said he could see when he had the ball on the sweep thst no one recognized on the defense he had the ball until it was too late. I recently heard from someone on one our message boards that Jay Gruden once said (paraphrased), "Del Rio is one of the easiest defensive coordinators to scheme against. He doesn't try to trick you." |

Re: Lions postgame
The schedule is soft, they'll win 6 or 7 games and Ron should be fired right after the season

Re: Lions postgame
Get some positivity here on a moody Monday
