Love seeing Edey cry for a bailout foul

He did end up on the Texans as an UDFA, and tested positive in 2017 before being released for the last time.

I had to look that up though, as far as I remembered his career ended with the Rose Bowl suspension. I don't remember seeing an official-ish reason for his suspension, but PED's was the rumor and he later got popped for it in the NFL so it seems like a safe assumption at this point. Felt like a really weird story at the time (the Rose Bowl suspension), very little official reporting on it.

Business School finally…

Business School finally completed their research project to see how many things they could make out of glass in that building. No need for further "research" donations.

What is even the point of committing to a school right now? It's like taking a commitment from a high school sophomore.

Ben Johnson is the latest…

Ben Johnson is the latest beneficiary of coordinator mania. The fact of the matter is the front office assembled an elite offensive line, two productive running backs, an all-pro receiver, a rookie of the year candidate tight end, an experienced QB, and other valuable supporting cast players.

He's been a very good coordinator for us but it's going to be fine on offense.

Just the last in a string of…

Just the last in a string of unreal decisions. They didn't think they could call a play before a delay of game flag? Couldn't get lined up and snap it in 40 seconds? Anything short of that and you are ahead on the balance of time keeping your timeout.

100% on the coaching staff…

100% on the coaching staff. The defense was always going to collapse, this is not a good unit. Without fail that was always coming. We had a chance to saddle up a RB who was average 6.5 YPC on 12 carries in the first half, and we only gave him three carries this half - one a final suicide play. Goff completed what, 40% this half? Even that?

Did they not think they…

Did they not think they could get a play called and run in the 40 seconds San Fran will now have to run the clock down? Just wild.

We're not calling two plays in the huddle?

Maybe they're thinking of Montgomery like a car tire, and are saving up those miles for next year.

Really surprising there that running Montgomery worked I don't know if it was reasonable to even expect that.

I agree Sutton I also thought he was going to take a 25 yard drop back there that caught me off guard as well

The NFL is about making the plays when you have them, and we haven't made a play this whole half. Just have to find a way to stop drowning here on D.

Not sure how many more posts I can make begging for Montgomery.

Okay Sherrone time to tag in as OC and run Montgomery a billion times in a row.

Would have liked to see Montgomery in with three time outs left on first down and goal.

Useful rule of thumb: If the guy coming for you weighs more than you do he is not going to try and cut tackle you.

Awesome was looking forward to another two-and-a-half hour mental meltdown after watching the Ravens-Chiefs game. Keep it up 9ers.

Feels like more of a mercy kill at this point

Amazing that Shanahan is billed as Jimmy Newtron with an entire playbook that consists of running into stacked boxes and check downs to McCaffrey.

Uhhhh you need to make a play for the ball that is OPI

God forbid you work to get student-athletes rightfully paid.

Yeah I have no idea why…

Yeah I don't know why people we're talking about this being a golden opportunity, this is not like the roster he had going into San Francisco. Having Herbert is nice, but good quarterbacks have been unable to will an organization to the summit (see: my avatar).

But, good luck Jim. Will root for you when your team plays in a prime time slot and it doesn't go against my interests.

Turns out being Aaron…

Turns out being Aaron Rodgers requires more than throwing 5 yard out routes, screen passes, and a ball to the oddly-frequent receiver whose cover man fell down.

The Jordan Love hype went so far overboard.

Beautiful game, but we press…

Beautiful game, but we press on! Getting hot at the right time and having the right pieces on the roster can be a rare thing in the NFL.

GM packing up his book bag…

GM packing up his book bag with 7:00 to go is just not what you want to see out there.

Looking back at the box…

Looking back at the box score from that game I was kind of shocked to see our running output. Trying to remember all of the injuries at that time - Gibbs was out and Montgomery was really banged up if I remember correctly - but that was our worst rushing output of the year on a YPC basis. Big day for Goff with 44 attempts.

Definitely feel more warm and fuzzy when I see Detroit pushing a defense around on the ground.

Well, assuming this goes the…

Well, assuming this goes the way it's going, not sure if there's much to take away from Tampa beating Philly. They've seemed like an up-and-down team and their run in to the playoffs shows that - struggles with New Orleans and Carolina and a win against Green Bay.

I suppose you can't ask for more than drawing a 9-8 regular season team in the Divisional Round, especially one you already handled on the road.

Sometimes you just gotta get…

Sometimes you just gotta get the old guard out and get your own guys in, whether it yields any tangible benefit to the organization or not.

Not sure what all the Stafford romanticizers are going to do when he goes into the Hall of Fame as a Ram.

Great win, enough graduation goggles for the crap Lions teams of old. Love it, can't wait for more next week.

Easier to defend a short field against a team not able to consistently run on you. Keep the plays in front of you and make them work for it. Two red zone stops.

So many players that make the first man miss in the open field, so difficult to do in the NFL.

Get pressure on Stafford and make a comfortable evening of it. Hasn't been a competitive Wild Card game yet no reason to start now.

I don't care how hard they…

I don't care how hard they try and shove it down our throats I just do not care about the Matt Stafford story line. He's been gone for years. He benefited greatly from the move and so did we. The Stafford-Detroit days are long gone and there was nothing memorable about them.

Was time to go. I would have…

Was time to go. I would have been interested in seeing him in an offense whose primary focus was throwing the ball. Wasn't going to happen even if he returned anyways.

Incredible career, the drives he led after the team got punched in the mouth at critical junctures in the Ohio State and Alabama games this year will probably be my lasting memory of his career, but it was obviously filled with many more great moments. Harbaugh said it best, the greatest quarterback in the history of Michigan football.

Best defense in the history…

Best defense in the history of the program.

GO BLUE, at long last National Champions again.

Put two guys and choked way too far up. Turns out the guy can actually kick the ball too

No messing about. The offense and this staff owes it to this defense.

Just absolutely insane that…

Just absolutely insane that this staff found a defense they can average 12 YPC against and we've allowed this to be a one score game out of our own stupidity.

How many times we've had to watch this staff bash their heads against the wall with the running game and they refuse to use it when it's ripping off huge play after huge play.

Throw a taunting flag…

Throw a taunting flag already that's twice now

Does professor dork at ESPN analytics see the YPC right now

You know I see the thought…

You know I see the thought process there, as it was 2nd and 11 and we're only averaging 15 yards per carry. Totally understand not just proceeding to beat their faces in again.
