I’m pretty much done with Campbell. You cannot win with someone who refuses to adapt. Next year he gets to roll out his third OC. Should be better assuming Ragnow is back next season too but I think it’s over for us.

Then on defense we’ll once again roll out a scheme that doesn’t not prioritize going after QBs. Leaky man coverage. Nah this isn’t the way…

Holmes and Campbell getting they asses humbled this year

Dline is healthy as its gonna get and they were MIA today. Hutch is fading. Alim aint the same player so far. Muhammad had a good 3 weeks and turned into the journeyman he’s always been. Resigned Davenport and Onzurike who are always injured and surprise to no one they both got injured again. Draft a DT that can’t rush the passer. But Holmes just keep ignoring fan outrage about pass rush. All this man to man with no passrush is just stupid

Season on the line Thursday against Cowboys. Zero confidence this defense stopping CD and Pickens.

Get Ragnow ready for next year. Just one less need. Get an experienced OC that has had success in this league. Daboll or McDaniels if he gets fired

Draft another QB high. Goff is not it. We are Watching Love take his game to another level that Goff is not capable of.

He hasn't given up a sack this year. 11 total pressures given up for the year. And the best run blocking tackle in football by far.
:gucci:

Damn near all the pressure coming from the interior. If Sewell is on an island erasing the best pass rusher he's not in position to help the guards or center when they fukk up.
Quit looking at stats and pay attention to the game. Whole damn pocket be in Goff lap not just the interior. Sewell standing there looking goofy. He’s one of the best in the league but he been getting fukked over too.

Didn’t see one sack given up by Sewell. Parsons success was inside and on Decker.

Goff had decent pass protection this game.

If sacks is all you worried bout you should want hutch put on the bench. Cause he can’t touch a qb unless he blocked by a te.

And the statement i made was before today’s game. It’s not all about sack. If you don’t see how the entire line be in Goff lap in the games the line got whooped then i don’t know what to tell you.

There alot of players on lions to have issue with. Weird that Sewell of all people is one of them.
I’m not even going to engage with it. Casual dumb shyt. I saw zero sacks given up and like 1-2 pressures at best.

This o-line can’t bully people anymore yet Campbell keeps operating like it’s still 2024. It’s killing us. And next week we face Quinnen Williams and Kenny Clark lol.

I need Holmes to admit the approach with pass rush is a failure. I defended him this off-season but it’s clear now. Davenport isn’t good enough and has played 3 games. Paschal is allegedly gone for the season after not being activated during his 15 day window (injured his back again). Muhammad got 6 sacks and then essentially got sidelined because he’s not great in run defense. Insanity. Hutch playing 70 snaps and being driven into the ground. What are we doing.

Holmes should be feeling the heat more than Campbell. That's not excusing Campbell's bonehead decision making going for it on every fourth down the past couple weeks, but anyone who didn't have blinders on knew this roster wasn't good enough to compete for a Super Bowl.

They didn't add anybody notable all offseason and Holmes was condescending to anybody who questioned his team building. He basically brought back the same team that didn't win a playoff game last year. Same injury prone guys; same lack of pass rush; offensive line got worse.

Hutchinson's play is starting to tail off. It shouldn't be a surprise when you consider the burden he's carrying. They have him out there on 93% of the snaps! All the other top pass rushers are below 80%; ALL of them. He's playing way too much but Sheppard doesn't really have a choice because who else is gonna generate pressure?

Also, Terrion Arnold is still ass. Got roasted on the biggest play of the game, then wasn't even on the field for the final fourth down.

I'm not gonna argue the cap issues going forward if they'd traded for Myles Garrett or Micah Parsons but Holmes' refusal to cash in on draft picks for established stars is maddening. Their last two first rounders are Arnold and Tyleik Williams. Gimme a fukking break.
