lol the poor bastids that had the over
lol like 68% of people were on the over or something
i wonder how many people started spending their winnings on amazon at halftime lol
I don't hate McVay punting there, there was like 4:20 left when he did it? 4th and 14 is no joke, especially when he knows any light holding down the field is probably not getting called
lions a cool story, but didn't find that win remotely impressive, got calls, didn't do anything offensively 2nd half
guess they got room to run with TB/Phi winner coming in.....GB is probably the 2nd best team in the NFC now
Actually I'm fairly shocked the Lions have been to the playoffs 10 times in the last 30 years. Now I see they went 6 times in the 90s.
Lions didn't do much second half. But they were on fire in first half. Young team in tense game. They can play even better.
Gibbs should be getting 20 touches a game.

(only 1 timeout)
---> LA (23) @ DET (24) <--- LA has 4th & 14 at the DET 44, Q4 04:15
Recommendation (STRONG): Field goal attempt (+4.5 WP)
Actual play: E.Evans punts 31 yards to DET 13, Center-C.Tinker. D.Peoples-Jones pushed ob at DET 17 for 4 yards
punt and go for it are ~tied, which seems wrong, because i mean with that field position and only 1 timeout, if they get a couple first downs the game is over anyway, so who cares? you might as well take a chance on 4th down
bot thinks you're supposed to kick a fg, but what is that, 61 yards?
idk, but i doubt it
not even sure if it takes # of timeouts into account
it should, seems fairly simple, but idk
maher career started well but hes been awful, even his XPs look gross
if campbell declined the penalty before the 3rd and 14, i dont even think the rams wouldve kicked the 53-54 with him
i think they wouldve just gone for it, could be wrong though
Amazon VIP card declined.
In a game his team lost by 1, but never once had the lead, McVay:
- Ran out the clock with 1 min left in the 1st half and all 3 timeouts (his offense had scored on all 3 drives up to that point)
- Kicked 3 fgs from the red zone
- Punted from opponent territory with 4:30 left even though he only had 1 timeout left
Pretty sure McVay’s always on the passive end of those coaching charts where they compare various 4th down go-for-it rates. So let’s stop this bullshit about how his mistrust in his kicker affected his decision making today. Dude is a flat out pussy, and the aggressive disparity between Campbell and McVay is the biggest reason why the Lions advanced today.

bot thinks you're suppose
yeah been a long day, rethinking this it was a bad move unless he wanted to make sure his rams +3.5 people got there regardless of result
the shanahan tree guys definitely seem to all turtle up in big moments even if they are the best playcallers
2/2 on my picks so far. Lost on Miami and Dallas.
Figure Bills handle Mason Rudolph with ease although I wouldn't be surprised if they lost.
As bad as Philly has been, it only seems right they move on after Dallas got hammered. I like Philly -10

Interesting how the 2 best teams go for it the least. Perhaps being conservative and not listening to analytics is the way to go.
The criticism of McVay really focuses on the wrong play. Every option they had on 4th down sucked but that’s cuz they called what they called on 3rd down. Yes, refs missed the holding but you only need what, 6 or 7 yards for a manageable FG attempt for the lead or just going for it
That play should be the one being lambasted
Nate on a mission to prove he is insane today!
Edit: LOL, excellent crosspost
