  • G B U - Just 1 bounce short of the Super Bowl edition

    Bless You Boys - the Roar is Restored.

    Wow, what a season.

    G - Still everything

    B - how many bounces could go against the Lions

    U - the brigade of second guessers are coming over the hill
    The only logical explanation is:

    People crap on Purdy but he made some big plays after getting rattled in the first half. I hope the 49ers beat the Chiefs.

        What a season! I am disappointed but not down.

        Do I question the 4th down? Yes, but Dan got us to this point, so you have to ride the ups and downs.

        What are the odds of the 51 yard pass off Vildor's helmet and a fumble at the Lions 30?

          I will give JAMO props for settling in during this season. Well done.

            Great season ended with 2 terrible quarters.

            Hated not taking the points, but that's life with Dan Campbell and honestly a shaky at best kicker

            And at least it was the refs. The lions lost that all on their own

              Too many drops in the second half. It's brutal because the biggest offender was Reynolds and he was the guy who make all kinds of key third and fourth down conversions.

                He would have made one of at least what was it 3 chances? 4? That ties it up.

                  Give your shaky kicker some confidence by giving him a chance to kick there. Dan’s all about confidence in his players. A grade of F for coaching in that second half.

                    My biggest issue was the third down run. If you are going to run, it has to be on 4th down. You can't burn the timeout. If the Lions got the TD with 3 timeouts, extremely good chance they at least tie it.

                      You guys know that Brock Purdy beating you with his legs means you played some pretty good defense and all those more talented guys on offense...............

                          Well, we're actually now in the off-season, the longest wait for it since the 1991 season.

                          A couple of things this team needs: another defender on the opposite side of Hutch, some more corners, and we need a reliable kicker!!

                          Ben Johnson is good as gone, and I'm hoping that we have the right replacement for him.

                          Aaron Glenn grew on me this season. I don't totally blame him for the defensive lapses in the 2nd half, he helped the team's defense get this far.

                              Yep and after thinking about it for a couple days he’ll say he’d do the same things all over again.
