This shows me Detroit's football I.Q. , everyone struggling to find answeres when it's clear as day what happened. Campbell gave the 49ers life by going for it on 4th , which immediately switched momentum resulting in all these drop and mistakes. I'm embarrassed for Detroit today smh.

The caller... was ABSOLUTELY right. You HAVE to go up 3 scores on the road in the NFC Championship game. I don't care if you're Kenny Rogers. Campbell can't snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
Yes, it helped them win against the Chiefs and Chargers. The difference is that those games were close and they had to fight for maximum points to win. The 49ers game was a game that they didn't need maximum points, they were winning and they just had to keep the 49ers down. Rather than going for maximum points, just take any points you can get. Don't make desperate moves when you're not desperate, make smart moves. It's the losing team's job to make desperate moves. It's the winning team's job to play smart.
I'm furious! I'm mad as hell! Like all of us, I've waited all my life to see the Lions in the Super Bowl, and this was it! But NOOOOOOOO !!!!! It's like the door to the SB is closed shut with a "Lions not welcome here" sign on it! WTF? How many more years do we have to wait for the Lions to get into the Super Bowl! I'm mad as hell!

Lions scored the same 31 points that they did in 1957. They did what history was asking for. Had San Fran not scored that final touchdown, we would’ve won. The result got flipped. That’s how history works. History was looking for a different fate this time out. We’ll be back.
While Chad has some good points he's BEYOND fired up. Good for ratings but not good for the blood. He sounds like one of the Bama callers on the finebaum (aka peanut brain) show. 'My therapist told me it's just a game! I said HELL NO!!! IT'S NOT JUST A GAME!! I got 2 months worth medication in me and it don't calm me down!!' FYI I can't stand finebaum so I don't watch him but my friend showed me a clip of that last year when Alabama lost to LSU.
I have to blame some of the play calling before the drop passes 4th down. I mean St Brown as a single setback then gets immediately stuffed was a terrible 3rd down call. He’s not a running back
What other games did a 4th down conversion win them a game? 4th & goal vs rams led to a td in a game they won by 1. 4th & goal vs bucs tied at 10 went and got a td in a game they won by a td
Yes. But the ball is at the goal line.... If Campbell kicks the field goal with 3 points.... Their chance of winning goes to 85 PERCENT... That Dan Campbell Gamble mentality came back to bite him.... I promise you.... More experienced coaches Shanahan Reid Harbaugh all would have kicked the field goal..... Period...
We can go back in free agency when we did nothing to get better. #97 is not the man. #97 needs help on the other end. Defense didn't tackle well, defense didn't cover, 17 point lead defense should have shut it down and didn't. Build up your defense in the off season and take advantage of free agency. Build the defense.
Maybe, just maybe, it was a young team, in a big moment, going through the learning curve and growing pains that accompany the journey to becoming champions one day?
Wouldn’t that lend credence to the slightly more conservative approach and kick the FGs? If you miss the first, all bets are off. If you don’t wanna go back to him, that’s fine. Roll it on 4th.
Nah I disagree with that crazy caller. Dan Campbell has said multiple times over and over he goes for it on 4th because he trusts his players. His players let him down. I think Dan went for the field goal before half because the 49ers start with the ball the third quarter. I was fine with Dan's decision to go for it.
What does going for it on 4th down accomplish? I still fail to see what you gain from a conversion? It's asinine! Why would you condone this erratic, unhinged, unwavering, unremorseful behavior? DC is a child led by emotion. It's over for the lions. Locker room is now so frustrated and divided... you have no idea.
If he trust his players.... Then why not let the damn kicker Badgely kick the field goal? They simply match the 3 points of San Francisco... And go back up 17 points and it's a 3 possession game... I promise you.... Shanahan Reid Harbaugh all would have kicked the field goal.... And all 3 have been in the Super Bowl...TRUST ALL OF YOUR PLAYERS.... NOT JUST YOUR DAMN OFFENSE... FOOTBALL IS OFFENSE DEFENSE AND YES SPECIAL TEAMS!!! STOP BEING A DAN CAMPBELL FANBOY....
@@AlkebulanFoundation agreed 💯. And DC is also showing distrust for his defense. How any fans [let alone players] support this coach moving fwd is just dumbfounding.
THE LIONS will be back next year for sure. The writing is on the wall. They are the next NFC team up. They have the best GM in the league. Dan Campbell is the next up and coming coach in the NFL. All of their star players are on rookie contracts. They have one of the biggest salary caps this off season. The Lions will be back, and with their new playing experience, they will go to the bowl. Facts
I wish football worked like that, but it doesn't. There's just so much that can go wrong during a season, whether it's through injuries, scheduling, refs, or plain ol' bad luck. And while the Lions will likely be a great team next year, there will be other great teams as well. You cannot deny as a fan that a whole lot of things went right for us this year, and we probably can't count on those same things going right for us next season. Will the team be that much better that they can weather the inevitable storms to come? Difficult to say. But squandering such a golden opportunity when such things are so very rare absolutely hurts. But hey, like you, I"m an optimist. After all these years of staring at the abyss, the issues we face now are classy problems that successful franchises face. I'd rather be angry than apathetic.
@@trentb3148 Lions fans are too easy to fool,they bought DC schtick way too much.A real organization would fire dan especially when they fail next year,You absolutely cant squander a GM like holmes
Wasted money on the Gardner Johnson dude! Weak arm tackles, stupid penalty. If that dude played half as good as he runs his mouth he might be respectable! Another dude that seems to get torched a lot is Sutton! 👎
We have the absolute dumbest, weakest, fans and media in the country. Those 4th down plays are not gambles for the guy to get his jollies off. You have possibly the best O line and one of the most explosive players in the league in Gibbs and you throw it? Those are calculated risks in very specific situations that have been researched and scrutinized. Stop acting like they pulled Campbell out of a job at kinkos to coach the team
And you are one of those dumb fans. I do agree it wasn't a gamble because a gamble results in intended gain. There is NO gain for those 4th down attempts. It accomplishes nothing! DC has infantile traits. Maybe kinkos would have been a better option.
"I was never emotional about this team until they unraveled" is a very odd statement
He's your typical douchebag football fan
I heard that call live lmao

I called this all year and they still surprised me at the end.. they the goat losers !
The Josh Reynolds drops were definitely hard to watch. But the blame falls on many heads for this one.
On perhaps the nicest punt of the year Chase Lucas decided to carry his momentum and the ball into the endzone for a touchback. Total back breaker.
A perfect punt
That was honestly one of the best punts I've ever seen, that was a bomb and it bounced 20 yards straight into the air at the 1. :(

Vildor play was OPI. He played the ball and got shoved.
I agree, but it may be argued he was clogging up the receiver's running lane.
The Lions did a poor job of tackling.
And dropped passes, fumbled.....anxiety after momentum changes. Its why coaches kick FG's to settle games and stifle those issues.
Full disclosure, I was typing that past comment (and this one lol) around 5 AM too. So don’t feel too bad Costa. 😂😂
Lions get a kicker, upgrade pass rush, upgrade cornerback, and upgrade guard. 👌
