Lions having trouble with running QBs

Justin Fields is already shredding the Lions.  Just where he left off last year. 

The defense is going to prevent the Lions from truly contending this year. They really should have moved on from Aaron Glenn during the offseason.

That's suboptimal...

SCHOOOOOOOONMAKER 

JC, Goff. Way to respond.

The Lions have a chance if they dedicate 2 linebackers on Fields all game and shut him down 

Lions gonna Lion. Ugh. 

College or Pro, the more I watch teams come off of bye weeks, the more I think they use the entire time to imitate Al Bundy and do nothing but put their hands down their pants and drink beer for two weeks.

Can TAMU please take Aaron Glenn off our hands?

Lions will not be good enough if Glenn is coordinator. Campbell’s friendship is blinding him. 

JFC, Goff. What are you doing? These are absolutely awful throws.

Suboptimal number 2...

Jesus Christ. Two awful picks. 

lol JG saw JJ yesterday and said hold my beer 😂

The way the Vikings are playing this was a must win. And they go all SOL.

Well that does it. I'm done with these assholes.  Good thing the Lions decided to suck early so now I won't waste any more time watching them today.

The suns out and its a good day.

Of course Sordal with the hold to put them behind the sticks. Horrible block. Put skipper in

YESSIR!!!! Defense comes up huge and gives the offense a great chance to tie the game after the fumble!

Lions looking very Loins in the first half, but the DEFENSE (yes the DEFENSE) comes up big with a turnover!

Let's make sure that's a fumble and not an incompletion first, fellas. 

Now Goff just needs to be reminded what color jerseys the Lions are wearing today.

Should the NFL start asking QBs to dive instead of slide forward? Goff gave up 2-3 yards on the slide.

1st and goal for the Lions from the 3 yard line. Time to tie it up!

And Goff almost throws a 100-yard pick-6. My God. Just go full Moore and do nothing but run the ball.

Can someone check Goff's vision please? Almost a 3rd pick (coulda been a pick six). Live to play another down. 2nd and goal.

Good God. That was almost pick #3. 

That wasn't an errant throw. That was a poor decision. 

Goff is straight trash today!!

TD LIONS! Gibbs on the toss play to the left for the 3 yard score! Extra Point away from a tie game with 9:23 left in the 2nd Q

TD, nice.

Great play design 

With as poorly as the Lions have played, amazingly they're tied with the Bears.

Bad decision to go all-out blitz on 3rd and long. And horrible tackling gives Chicago a first down.

Lions missing tackles all over the place

Two days of bad tackling...wow.

Justin Fields should be lighting up defenses given the threat his legs pose and yet he's just a dink-and-dunk guy.

If Lions can get some points before the half here that would be great given how poorly they've played thus far.

Time for the Lions to score here, then take the 2nd half KO and score again.

Big opportunity to get points before halftime with the Lions receiving the 2nd half kickoff.

Don't love the Lions not using their timeouts. They have 3 of them.

Edit: Okay, clock got fixed. Apparently was a Fox error.

TOUCHDOWN LIONS!!!! Great throw and catch by Goff and St. Brown. Perfect placement. Lions lead going into halftime despite the struggles. 

Just like that - good lord this offense is good.
