I understand taking risks when the numbers suggest it is the right move but Dan Campbell had been saying all week it was a race to 30 points, so how could he pass up 2 chances to settle for field goal attempts especially when they were inside the red zone instead of going for it on 4th down. Those 2 field goals could have been the difference in the final score and most likely a win and a trip to Vegas for the Super Bowl. The more points a team has to more the team that is down by 17 points maybe more has to make to come back to try to win like having to try for a touchdown instead of kicking a field goal that provided the winning points. Now I understand the phrase "SAME OLD LIONS" major-mark63 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

Bills and Lions gave away the games in the second half. Oh and KC sucks , and so does that bitch Taylor Swift who does not belong in football games. But thats just my opinion.

Now I understand the phrase "SAME OLD LIONS" I always say take your points on the road in the playoffs. The deeper it gets into that game and San Fran is down the more they feel the pressure being a favorite. I get he likes to take chances and be aggressive but his game management was terrible in those situations. I wouldn't say same old Lions or they wouldn't even be sniffing a winning season let alone playoff wins. PHUCKITMAN and Crack 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards
