    This video is so cringe, in the first game they held Calvin to 46 yards but the other receivers excelled. Being a distraction to the secondary and opening up opportunities for other receivers is just as valuable as catching the ball yourself since it’s a team sport. Secondly the second game vs the Seahawks was a botch call and the lions should have had the ball on like the one yard line. (If you watch the lions you’ll know that they get screwed like this in some way almost every season, look up “lions getting cheated”) Also keep in mind that the lions were a significantly worse team than the Seahawks at this time.

      Exactly. No one knows how it feels unless you’re a lions fan. We get screwed literally almost every single game. I feel like the NFL purposely screws us over. I can name over 15 games where we lost because of the worst calls. The Dallas playoff game, the golden tate runoff garbage, the jim Schwartz throwing a challenge flag that somehow results in a TD for no reason… on and on and on and on. It was refreshing to see last year where Gurley screwed up and we won that game tho.

    To be fair, the entire offense was based around Calvin, partly because he was the only weapon they had, so when they faced a defense with 3 secondary all-stars, it was almost a given he wouldn’t have a great game. The Seahawks figured if you shut down Calvin you win the game, so that’s what they focused their entire defensive game plan around. The Lions also used Calvin way too much in those games, they didn’t adjust to the defensive scheme, and it didn’t help Stafford threw some bad balls. He was also secretly playing through a concussion. This guy had some ridiculous wear and tear from the amount of usage

    Completely unbiased 2 of those hits were lowkey dirty. I know this was 2012 but still. All I’m all tho you gotta give it to Seattle. Holding Calvin twice (regardless of some pretty bad QB play) is ridiculous we’ll never see anything like it again

    2012: the Legion of Boom locks makes a severely injured decoy slow to get up and holds him to 46 yards on 5 targets. DOMINATED (what?)
    2015: Megatron has one pass that makes it to him jarred out but otherwise catches the rest, not stats given. DOMINATED.

    This is because they put so much emphasis stopping him but that allowed other guys to get open. The second game he had more yards then the first and the second game Detroit should had gotten the ball on the 1 yard line. The Seahawks player knocked the ball out of the endzone Detroit automatically gets it on the 1. If a lions player is the last to touch before it goes out bounds then Seahawks get on which now is the 25 yard line

    a lot of salty fans in the comments, many of you are mentioning that Calvin Johnson had a broken thumb, last time I checked a broken thumb doesn't effect your ability to get open, Johnson was locked down and the only aspect that would be affected by a broken thumb is your catching ability, Johnson dropped 2 of his targets that should have been caught, assuming that he would of caught both if he was fully healed he would of went 5/14 in receptions so what's your point? The LOB locked down Johnson
