There was a member here who created a thread and wrote that he wished the Colts had hired Cambell, not Frank Reich. IIRC, everyone who replied thought he was wrong for wanting Campbell over Reich. I have not seen that member in a while.

I think most of us were pretty happy we got Reich after the fumble with McDaniels…but after years of our teams routinely showing up to games unprepared most of us soured pretty quickly after those first two years..

These final four teams today really used their TE’s a lot in their offenses.  We had great TE’s in the past.  Not any more.

If the Lions team that showed up today to play these niners shows up in 2 weeks to play the Chiefs then I absolutely say the Lions win it all!

It would be an awesome story and end to the season!

Goodness gracious!  
 

Allow me to introduce you to the Colts tight ends….

 

Grandson, 3rd year.  Decent player.

Ogletree,  2nd year, hurt all rookie year.

Woods,  2nd year, hurt all this year. 
Mallory, 1st year, had good rookie season. 

 

How nice you’ve already decided that none of them are ever going to be good. 

 

[NFLfan]

They overuse Deebo. He is a prized asset. Take care of him.

I am indeed rooting for them. I follow the NFL, even more so now that the Colts have not been as good in recent times. Many other teams have been aot more exciting to watch than the Colts the last couple of seasons. I wish this wasn't the case, though.  I like the Chiefs. I would NEVER want them to beats the Colts,  but the Colts are at home for the tournament and have been for quite some time.  

 

The Chiefs have probably the best QB I have ever seen. Can't help but root for him. The guy is amazing. 

 

I like seeing greatness. I find it odd how many people are rooting against him and claiming any player in football is currently better than him. 

 

Wish we had Mahomes. 

I concur!

[NFLfan]

That pass by Purdy looked dangerous.

All our TEs are decent but none are great. 

[IinD]

As much as I love the Detroit story I'm wondering how they match up with KC??..I feel they'll get beat up in that match up.

 

Don't care either way, just wondering out loud.

[SR711]

Interested to see if SF has answer for Lions completely gashing them with the run game in the 1st half.

They won their first matchup earlier this year on opening night. They’ve only gotten better. I think it would be a great matchup.

They’re YOUNG!   No one knows if they’ll be great or not.

Ahh... Totally forgot they played actually... Opening night I think??

 

Im just hoping KC doesn't get another one.

Didn’t we interview Campbell for HC?  Or maybe it was a coordinator job.

Yes, we interviewed Campbell way back in 2018, when he was a relative unknown.  People here didn’t understand why.   They do now.

I’m hoping Mallory pans out.

[NFLfan]

I thought they should have taken the points.

[teganslaw]

I think Detroit could match up well against KC. If they continue playing like this, they will. 

 

So over the Chiefs, (I have many reasons I don't' care about them), the Lions would be a nice change. 

[NewColtsFan]

You and me, both.   But both Ogletree and Woods still have potential, though Ogletree has problems with the law. 

[ColtStrong2013]

I’m usually the last to complain about aggressiveness, but why would you not stretch this game to three scores? 

[SR711]

Just now, NFLfan said:

I was thinking the exact same thing.  Maybe they were thinking FG attempt would’ve been from 43ish yards out and was not a gimmie

Agreed. Week 6 I get it... This the championship game. Extend that lead.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

If SF scores here looks could be in trouble.

[Chrisaaron1023]

All them yards given up.. and Mahomes is waiting in Vegas..

 

Btw looks like a TD to me

[IinD]

That Det stat of everyone getting 350 passing yds on them is terrible. Mahomey would definitely exploit that.

That was such a Lions play... Lol

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Well that’s crazy.

[SR711]

Hope that 4th down call doesn’t come back to bite the Lions.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Crazy how lucky Purdy  gets with not being intercepted.

[IinD]

Detroit starting to Detroit... Lol

[Chrisaaron1023]

Detroit definitely should've taken the points

[Myles]

It's a game again

At this point, when they are up by multiple scores, they should take the points.

 

They could have been up by 10 after this TD by the Niners. Hopefully this does not come back to hurt them.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Well we have a game. Lions got way to conservative plus should of kicked the FG.

[Happy2BeHere]

I would have kicked the FG if I was the lions, I think you should take the points especially when you are up

[Chrisaaron1023]

Woooooooow

[SR711]

Lions gotta stick with the script that’s gotten them here.

 

You had to figure 49ers are too good to go down this easy.

 

Run the ball, take shots off play action

[Chrisaaron1023]

Dan Campbell is punching air inside right now

As long as they stay ahead, they should take the points.

 

Oh no. That is why you take the points.

[Happy2BeHere]

Now they fumbled and the momentum is

all in the niners side. Dumb decision to not

kick that FG 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

lol 

 

 

[NFLfan]

Terrible.
