Matt Patricia just had his "taking the wind" moment.
It happens to every Lions coach sooner or later where they make that bone headed decision that defines their career and starts the beginning of the end of their head coaching experience. On the last play of regulation, the Lions get a break when the Raiders call timeout with the Lions at the 2 yard line. The Lions have time to think and plan what they will do. They take out their top two pass catching options in Marvin Jones and Kenny Golladay and replace them with two back-up tight-ends. They try to throw to one of the not so sure handed back-ups who doesn't make the play. Game over, career over. Nice knowing you Matt.

The Lions - where coaches go to kill their career!

Which is why the Lions need to hire Urban Meyer!

Meanwhile I think Lamar Jackson already has more rushing yards in the 1st quarter against NE than Lions had all day against a shitty defense.

Refs seem to really hate the Lions this season for some reason...

How many calls did the Lions get that last series?
November 3rd, 2019 at 8:58 PM ^
OP is such a football genius.
obviously a lions troll. If you’re going to Lazy-B boy the last call of the game, you better back track the other 59 minutes as well.

Good for you man! What is it like being superior to the rest of the world?

I'm talking about the Lions...what are you talking about?

Franchise over, no more football for Detroit, either. Detroit over, no more city either! How many repercussions does this one play have, you ask? As many as you can imagine.

Lions will always suck, no matter who they have coach them.

Pretty much every comment on threads now is sarcastic

Like that's a surprise.

Doesn't the OC call the plays? Patricia isn't going to overrule his OC as a defensive coach...
And let me tell ya, a team with a 3-4-1 record isn't making their first game-blowing mistake of the year... This team is just like all the ones before it. Bad.

The season started off looking promising with a 2-0-1 start. Now... it is just same old lions.
