Bills fan here. Been on the wrong side of a lot of these types of losses over the years. Wishing Lions fans a quick recovery. It will take some time but just know that you’re in great hands with Dan Campbell. Class act and every answer was from his heart. Would love to play for him if I was a player. Go Bills. Go Lions. 👍🏻
@@johnclaba1457 nope. 3 big time drops changed the game. Both of reynolds drops should’ve been catches for first downs on both 3rd and 4th down. Also the interception that bounced off the defenders face mask. Going for it on 4th got us here.
@@monkeyman9856 Ummmm you can keep your head up your ass all you want....I could care less. What doesnt change by you keeping your head up your ass is that Campbell had TWO OPPORTUNITIES to put a total of 6 points on the board via field goals....These weren't 50-60 yard field goals....They were very makeable SHORT field goals......so when non dumbasses who know how to count and add, see that the Lions lost by 3 points....when they very well would have had 6 additional points....tells SMART people that the coach made bad decisions. I get that you want to keep your status as the #1 Lions Homer.....but that doesnt change what people like me saw yesterday during that debacle.
@@monkeyman9856 drops fumbles turnovers are apart of the game why do you think Brandon Staley was fired for Jim Harbaugh coaching matters. Do you think Tom Brady wanted to throw a picksix in the Superbowl no Trevor Lawrence threw 4 interceptions and still won the game. Dan Gamble didn't kick the field goal to tie the game didn't even the kicker a chance to make or miss worse loss in lions history
You mean #8? That guy murdered you guys tonight! Dropped 4th down catch for first down and dropped 3rd down catch that hit him in the 8. Cut him tomorrow morning.
@@tjmckenzie4048 , if Reynolds makes those catches, then Dan is a genius. Hate to make comparisons but KC made the catches they needed to make and so did the Michigan Wolverines when they were trying to tie the game with Alabama. Winners make the plays they need to make during adverse situations. Reynolds doesn't need to be cut. He needs to make sure it doesn't happen again and learn from it. JJ McCarthy learned from his QB mistakes after being shocked by TCU.
You hit the nail on the head, that bonehead decision to go for it instead of taking the point changed the whole momentum of the game @chickengenius4202
very true but I think it is very unlikely, just like Pete Carol never did for his horrible decision to pass the ball on the goal line in the Super Bowl, he never regretted it, lost the trust of his players ..never recovered after that ...coaches have to take accountability for their horrible calls
I've lived through such horrible Lion's seasons where the game was already over in the first 20 minutes of play. I'm just glad that we have a team that will be fun to watch on Sunday's for at least the next few years. Thanks Lions and fellow fans who made this such a great season. I could barely go anywhere this year with any Lion's apparel on without someone wanting to strike up a conversation about the team or yell GO LIONS from 25 feet away. Went to 4 games this year (the most for me in a long time) and high-fived lots of strangers. Tough to lose this one like we did, but what a great season overall.
@@coryvallad7578 Oh I agree (if I am understanding you correctly). This was gonna sting either way if we lost, but the way we lost, it stung a lot more.
Your guys season has felt over in a matter of minutes for decades now. DC is right where he belongs, and I still believe he is the right man to continue lifting this franchise out of irrelevance to the promised land.
@@chrisgarcia5462Yeah. Losing both offensive and defensive coordinators and seeing Jordan Love look so good and their wr's? Green Bay division next year, or Minnesota. Detroit 3rd place
For all of you couch coaches- SHUT UP - without Dan and Brad we would have never got this far! I have followed the team since 68 and this is the best team in my lifetime. We will get back here next year - One Pride!!!!
He is a FANTASTIC coach and he has done more for this franchise than any other coach. He reminds me a lot of Sean McDermott of the Bills (I'm a lifelong Bills fan). He has changed the culture and instilled a winning attitude. But he has made some absolutely HORRIFIC sideline decisions (like McDermott) that has cost his team dearly. When they were penalized on the 2 pt play against Dallas and he still went for it from the 7... that was a terrible braindead decision. Twice tonight he didn't take fgs when fgs would've won the game. The first one would've put them up three scores, 27-10. The second one would've tied the game. I'm sorry, he's a great coach, but he blew it today.
Dumbest coach in the history of the playoffs. His job isn't to get you to the NFC Championship. It's to get you to the Super Bowl. Not to do the same dumb things he survived doing in the regular season in spite of himself. Those decisions cost his team a SB appearance. And a rigid mind is a stupid mind.
I agree with you on Brad. We have the GM and the QB. Now we need the coach. Tonight proves Campbell is not the coach we need. You know who wouldn't have coached us out of this game tonight?................Bill Belichick. Jussayin
Ask Falcons fans about the good years after blowing it because of the coaches play calling. The players have all offseason to hear how the coach screwed up and next season in-house fighting could do the same to Lions as the Falcons.
Lmao as a lions fan we say this bs every year and every year it's the same heart break ..... had the game wrapped as we always fucking do and boom a come back happens ..... look at past Dallas lions games in WC for example .....
The Marine Corps taught me what coach Campbell teaches his players... TOUGHNESS, DISCIPLINE, TEAMWORK among other factors. As for the Lions, nothing to be ashamed of... nothing but pushing forward and learning from your mistakes. They gave their hearts out on that field! Hats off to the Niners and their fans. We are all still Lion proud! Thank you coach Campbell for an awesome season. From a Vietnam Era Marine Corps veteran.
@@kimcage7768 No they didn't... I taught myself that! The Lions players didn't lose that game! They played their hearts out. So, who else can we say but the coaching decision. He second guessed himself on a few of those plays, so he has to live with that. IMO. Thanks for your comment. From a Vietnam Era Marine Corps veteran.
That was as gut-wrenching a loss as I’ve ever suffered in my 30 years as a Detroit sports fan. But it doesn’t make me any less proud of this team nor does it dim the brightness of their future. We fans always wanna pin a loss on one singular play or person, whether it’s MCDC and the coaching staff, Goff, the defense, etc. But the bottom line is they lost this game as a collective unit. A couple missed throws by Goff, numerous drops, a million missed tackles, some questionable decisions by Dan, the near-pick by Vildor that went off his face mask and turned into a 50 yard gain, the Gibbs fumble…the list goes on. They didn’t deserve to win in the end. San Fran made all the big plays down the stretch and that’s why they’re heading to the Super Bowl and our season is over. But the Lions will learn from this as an organization. Players will come back hungrier, Campbell will continue to grow as a coach, and Brad will make the necessary upgrades at the positions of need. These guys are just scratching the surface and I fully expect we’ll be back next year in a better position to win it all. To Coach Campbell and all his assistants, Brad Holmes, Chris Spielman, Sheila Hamp and every single man who donned a Lions jersey this year: thank you for one hell of a season. #OnePride 🦁💙
@@smartmaxwell9017 yeah ok bud. This was year 3 of a rebuild. Virtually every corner stone of the team is under the age of 25. Goff at 29 is still considered pretty young for a QB especially considering he doesn’t rely on athleticism whatsoever. Losing BJ and Glenn may be tough but this organization has built a winning culture and will likely bring in guys who fill those positions without too much being lost. Overall your take is incredibly lazy and lacks any real analysis other than bs tropes regarding the history of the franchise (which has clearly been on an upward trend since Sheila took over for her incompetent parents). Have a good one.
Love the take. Go Lions - a heartbreaker, but yeah as our ship rises together so it falls. Even after such a wonderful season, sports fans always wanna have their reactionary takes and have a way to explain everything. It’s never so simple. I appreciate the thought out response, and believe it’ll be up from here.
Thanks for the great season guys, looking forward to next year hoping I get those season tickets. Being a Lions fan my whole life I never had a year like this, so I've never experienced such a crushing moment as this one, but still just an amazing year.
But why gamble late in 3rd quarter when you can be up by 3 scores? And then do it again knowing you could have traded touchdowns for field goals and bleed out the clock that late in the game...
This is the kind of coach I played for in the late 70's. Loves his player's till the end. The LIONS are the best they have ever been with him. A true leader of men. If it was easy, everyone would do it. Go Coach Campbell and go LIONS
Completely agree. Mid third quarter, could’ve stalled niners momentum, would’ve gone back up 3 scores. Dan’s cute go for it mentality isn’t right in all situations.
Nah, the last one was the worst one. Soon as I seen them not get it I could feel the loss. Had they just got the FG, it woudve been a tie game. Wouldn’t have mattered if SF even scored cause then DT gets it back w enough time for a shootout and overtime
I believe we can be better next year. This was tough as hell, but this is a young team with a lot of talent. Let's see what Brad Holmes and Dan Campbell cook up this off season.
As a bears fan i was rootimg for you guys all the way. And its not as easy as you think to get back there next yr. We are still suffering from bad coaching decisions. Take the points and make it harder on san fran. Now i have to live with damn mat naggy playing in the super bowl after he messed my bears up. Damn damn damn
Playoff points are hard to come by. To risk 3 points is a bad decision. Period. The case can be made from Dan, I can hear that…But the Lions had to live with the bad side of risking going for it. To me, it’s inconsiderate on behalf of your team since every yard is so much more difficult in the playoffs. Bad coaching call from an otherwise great coach. Dan even mentioned how hard it is to get to this game. All the more reason why going for it over taking the points is such a blunder.
He should regret those decisions because they cost his team the game and a chance at the Superbowl. Kicking a field goal when you're down by three is something that a 10 year old would think was a good idea. What an absolute fool.
That’s just not true. They were 17/22 on 4th with 3 or less. 2/2 in the post season. They both were catchable balls. The players just failed to connect.
He coached the game the same we He coached the entire season. If they would have converted on the 4th downs everyone would be saying how brilliant He was for going for it on 4th down. As a Packers fan, I can say one thing, the NFC North will be one of the toughest divisions in football next year.
@@austinbean9782 🛑 jumping through hoops to defend Dan Gamble he blew it it's the same reason Brandon Staley was fired for Jim Harbaugh why because coaching matters drops fumbles turnovers are apart of the game you think Tom Brady wanted to throw a picksix no
You should regret not taking points. You gave them the momentum. It wasn't in hindsight. EVERYONE who knows anything about football was asking WTF and there you go with your EGO.
Actually Badgley was 18 of 21 from 40-49 yds since 2021. I didn't remember him kicking for my Colts in 2021, but we're a dome team too so I'm sure a lot of those were inside. Still though? 27-10 and they keep all momentum and it's not like Purdy won't panic and throw it up for grabs now and then. GB dropped 2 right in the middle of their chest. First was a pick-6.
Dan Campbell saying he just felt really good about them converting it's just freaking ridiculous. I hope he's just saying it for the cameras and really deep down inside realizes he made a huge mistake. When you're trying to get to the Super Bowl and you're less than a quarter and a half away from going to the Super Bowl, you kicked the field goal and squash all the momentum and all the confidence and all the hopes of the 49ers. You have to look at the situation, at that time the momentum was still in the Lions favored because they just stopped the 49ers from scoring a touchdown and made him kick a field goal which I guarantee that Kurt the confidence of the 49ers cuz at that point in time they probably thought there was nothing they can do to get back into the game because the lions were just dominating. Then when they saw the Lions about the score field goal they probably were really losing confidence realizing they were going to go back down three possessions again but this time half of the third quarter was already gone so they would have started pressing the sense of urgency would have started coming up they probably would have made a mistake by the time they came back down the field and scored again I guarantee the third quarter would have been nearly over by that time Dan needs to really check himself cuz he gambled when he didn't need to. I understand taking risks and gambling but don't do it when you don't have to especially in a game like this when you're Super Bowl hopes are on the line
Young team, Dan! Pressure busts pipes! I’m a Redskins fan and I have been routing for you guys for the last two years. You’re compassion to the game and most importantly your team goes unnoticed! ✌🏾❤️
Can't catch ✅ Can't tackle ✅ Turnover✅ Leave points on the board✅ That's how you lose a game...it's a team game and it's a team outcome, win or lose. SF made the plays when it mattered, Lions didn't. It was the perfect storm of a bad half, execution wasn't there, and bounces didn't go their way. Couldn't have written a more Lions loss, really.
@@ArthurIdis-c7k After the TCU loss Michigan fans said "We'll get em next year" and I was cautiously optimistic, except that was actually more believable and it came true. Lions til I die but after so many years I try to stay realistic and it helps ease the sting of games like this. We've seen it all before. Until the clock hits 00:00 on the Lions winning the Super Bowl I will not get my hopes up too high.
ONE PRIDE!!!! GO LIONS!!!! 🎉🎉🎉 Im proud EVERYONE that has anything to do with the Lions organization 💯💯💯! You're right then We might not know about where we're going to be if we're going to be back in the NFC championship again but I can guarantee you one thing you're going to have us as contenders for quite some time to come and that's saying a lot! 💯💯💯💯 Thank Yall for that!!! We don't have to hold our heads down really no more and shame I have an 016 seasons and things like that I know we're going to be contenders from here on out
@@words911You’re stupid, the FG would’ve came before a 4th down conversion. Coach made the decision to go for it, thus gambling a dropped ball, interception, incomplete pass, etc.

@@zacgrasl4229 the receiver who dropped that first 4th down attempt and the pass he dropped on 3rddown really cost them big. Simply choked under pressure.
He should regret passing on points up 2 scores on the road in the second half of a championship game. You have to coach differently in those situations. It's not about analytics or what you've done all season. It's about resetting momentum in a zero-sum game
The game was very winnable. But for dropped passes, missed interceptions, freaky lucky bounce (49rs), regrettable 4th down calls, this would easily have been a win for the Lions if JUST ONE of those things went our way. That said.......I am thrilled by the Lions this year and this is a year to celabrate as a fan. THE LIONS MADE IT TO THE NFC CHAMPIONSHIP and did not get blown away. They are were a REAL CONTENDER. And I really feel that if they would have won, a Super Bowl victory would have been VERY POSSIBLE. Thank you Lions for a great year. At 60, having grown up with annual disappointment, this year still doesn't seem real.
Yeah if just one thing in my life went right I’d be a millionaire, but it didn’t, so I’m not. There ain’t no ifs , buts, and maybes- yall lost because of a bad coaching decision, not because a “what if”?
Heres the bottom line,the trust is broken now permanently with DC ,the players will now have doubts about him when it comes to big game decisions.They wont return to this high level of play ever again.Now we have to fire DC before we waste time trying to win with this guy when a quality intelligent coach can work with Holmes and build a legit contender
His decision making sometimes and not admitting he made a mistake sometimes he must learn from them as the whole Team must. The first FG he passed up is debatable but the second one a no brainier kick it tie the game and stop the bleeding. I'm still proud of this Team and we exceed our goals for this year. Let's get a kicker that Coach Campbell will have confidence in get better on defense and let's get back in the playoffs. Go Lions!
We will continue to never win a SB because his dumb decision making in situations and not accepting responsibility of the moral when they go that far and aren't rewarded. Math doesn't account for the moral. He deflates in game moral by leaving to many points on the board. 🙄
Boneheaded decisions. Kicking a FG when up by 14 means you're now up by 17, and that's a 3 score game. Also a chance to kick a FG to tie the game that was disregarded.
They'll be back next year they are only going to be picking up talent. So many of their star players are still on rookie contracts they'll be fine. Problem is when they get there again does Dan Campbell use this loss to make better decisions going forward.
@@haydentaylor8651 sorry bud can't fire Brandon Staley for poor coaching decisions and ignore Dan Gamble poor coaching decisions.

do you know how hard it is to reach a SB? this isnt the NBA where good teams are consistently good for years.Theyll never have such a golden opportunity again
Take the 3 go up 17 it’s the NFC Championship Game!!! Over 40+ years of watching football. Once that happened you could feel it. as sad as it is to type this it was Over for the Lions..😔
Two fourth downs..... Aggressive play calls. Big time decisions can put an opposing team away, or send your team home. Congratulations 👏🏽 Good Season ending NFC East championship game lost by 3
Man Detroit froze not going for the Touchdown 2 Yards out, instead of settling for the field goal before the half. When they had The Niners on the Ropes, you got to take those Chances. The Lions neglected the field goals in the second half, I just don't get it. They got Complacit after halftime.
Man that was one of the best calls he made. They were up 14 and he made the right call by kicking the FG. He messed up by going for the first fourth down play I would’ve punted tbh or maybe took a long FG. However that receiver (I forget his name ima packer fan 🤷🏾♂️) should’ve caught that pass and he didn’t. He’s a gambling coach and it caught up with him it’s that easy.
Hopefully with time, Dan Campbell does some serious self reflection and learns to regret those calls. So he can then learn from those mistakes and become a better coach. He needs to continue to improve just like he pushes the players on the team to improve.
@@seangarner2687 Badgley is 77% from that distance. The chance of converting 4th and 2 -3yds is less than 53%. Kicking the field goal was the blatantly obvious choice, supported by the numbers .
DC you pissed away 6 possible points, its gotta stop. In games like this you take every point, just don't keep a kicker and go for 2 every touchdown. Its just sad.
Dan Campbell’s pride and ego cost the Lions a once in a lifetime chance of a Super Bowl. Up 14 you must kick the fg to make it 3 possessions at the end of the 3rd. All momentum shifted after failing going for it and coincidentally he went for it again down in the 4th when he could make up for his mistake and tie the game proving no doubt he coaches for the glory only. Wolf in sheep’s clothing he’s not the guy people think.
@@matthewc2810 Exactly what Campbell wants. What drives him is the glory and people like you saying the team only made it here because of him. Open your eyes.
@@isaactesfaye9760 I mostly agree, you can't celebrate many of the decisions that got us there and then bitch when they don't work out. That said, I didn't think opting to go for it on those two 4ths was the right decision for those points in the game. I am certainly not saying we would have won if we had, we just did so much wrong in the 3rd quarter on both sides of the ball.
To be fair, the ball thrown to Reynolds was catchable on the first 4th down attempt. The play call worked, but us not executing on the basics (like catching that ball) was the tale of the entire 3rd quarter.
@@kevinmach730even if he catches it, it doesn’t set up a td. The risk of going for it is not even close worth it, go up 3 possessions with momentum into the 4th and we’ll be in Vegas.
The decision to run the ball on third down and goal with a minute to go and waste a timeout also was a game killer. If they score with 55 seconds left and three timeouts, they could kick deep and get the ball back and tie the game. Taking that timeout pretty much ended the game. This is also on top of the terrible 4th down decisions
Nah that wouldn’t have helped. 55 seconds still isn’t enough cause once they kneel and burn it down, it’s hardly enough time to take back a kick off. Problem was not taking the FG to tie the game
@@Joseph-tl5nw If you have three timeouts with 55 seconds left, the 9ers would've had to punt with 40 seconds left from their own 25. That's plenty of time in this league to get into fg range.
Agree 100% ....also 4th and 2 just kick the damn field goal and let the defense do its job..also the many dropped passes in the 2nd half killed them...
A Pop-warner coach would have better game time decisions than what I saw in that second half. He said I felt good about our chances... We had a 14 pt lead there was no reason to take a chance, at all. Build onto your lead. He lost this game more that anyone involved... my question to him is why? Something's not right... if it smells fishy, it probably is... Sad, what they've done to sports in this country! Atleast now I don't have to participate in the satanic Superbowl ritual!
Ok, why is Dan not copping to the 2 bad decisions to pass on a field goal? If they make both, they would have won, if they made one, they would have tied in regulation. But this does not detract from the remarkable season that the Lions achieved. They will keep getting better. These rough playoff losses are what make a team strong. The 49ers have a LOT of playoff experience, and that was what gave them the edge. Lions did exceed expectations.
They played the same way all season and that’s what got them to that. Don’t be a Monday morning QB. They did awesome just didn’t work out for them this time.
@@koda1963 unbelievable 24 to 10 in the 3rd quarter with a chance to go the Superbowl. Why didn't dan kick the field goal to tie the game why answer that. Yeah its a make or miss league didn't even the kicker a chance to make or miss but listen carefully if makes the field goal you go up 3 scores there's no such thing as a 17 point play SOL losing games you should have won blaming everyone but Dan Gamble. Brandon Staley was fired for Jim Harbaugh why because coaching matters
It sounds weird to say, but as good as they looked in the first half, it made me nervous a Lions fan. We aren't typically a team that goes out and just destroys teams offensively right out of the gate. Of course, I'm not suggesting we don't try to score as much as possible, but when you have a large lead, some teams play differently. It just wasn't our typical game - we are more of team that seems to really thrive in tight games. Once we had that lead, we just fell apart in the 3rd. Disappointing end, but a great season.
Yep. Late in the 3rd quarter, you're up by 17 if you kick it and you can trade touchdowns for field goals the rest of the game and win. It just doesn't make sense not to take the points that late in the game with a big lead.
The Lions still played a Great Game! No shame in losing a playoff game. At least they scored 31 points. I am still proud of the Detroit Lions. Best of luck to them next season.
What did he do to us?? lead this city and team to a NFC championship game? GTFO with that nonsense. While we’re at it let’s fire him and resign Patricia
Ever heard of going for a FG and taking a 17 point lead instead of GOING ON 4TH DOWN?? You got too cute and BLEW THE GAME for your team. If that wasn't bad enough you didn't go for a 47 yard FG to tie the game with 4 minutes left and went on fourth down again and BLEW IT. This guy should be FIRED.
Not fired, but admit it was the wrong call! I hope it wasn't ego, but if he doesn't admit that, it is stupidity and weakness. OWN it, great season though, thank you.
@@seangarner2687 it's a make or miss league give the kicker a chance Dan Gamble lost this game period didn't even kick the field goal to tie the game worse loss in lions history
This loss hurts bad but, the Lion's did not us down, they gave us memories over this past season that will be etched in our heart's and minds forever. These guy's did fantastic and we couldn't be more proud.
I've been hearing things about "he's been doing it all season and it's what got him here" ... but the difference between a good coach and a great coach is knowing when to take your foot off the gas. This was driven by pure ego, he didn't respect the 49ers at all, because it didn't just happen once.. it happened TWICE. You don't do that in a fucking title game. You take the free points and you don't just drain your whole squad of momentum making them feeling like they're behind.
The win against Green Bay gave them INCREDIBLE momentum going into this season. This loss? They will have very little momentum going into next season. Losses like this put hexes on teams.
Dan Campbell needs to spend ALL offseason playing Madden. For those that don’t know, Madden is basically a flight simulator for football game management. There’s a reason most good HC’s today are 40 y/o or younger. We’re the first generation to grow up playing Madden. Give me a 17 pt lead at the half and I’m letting my sister play defense while I make a snack.
Bills fan here, dan Campbell said to sean McDermott, hold my beer.. Didn't think it was possible to top our horrible fake punt call but Campbell came pretty close. We been putting up with the too smart for his own good b.s. since 2018, better luck with your coach
You got to ve the dumbest coach ever.You had three chances to score points to put more pressure on them in stead u gambled three times and lost. This was your fault not the team.As a cowboy fan we lost to detroit if rhey didnt gamble. Different game same dumb coaching decision.
If you’re aware of hardest to get here, why would you go for it on fourth down? Two times. You could’ve kept the pressure on them kicking that first field goal making it 17. So you obviously don’t know. Lol
The Lions lost the game because the receivers could not catch air all 2nd half. Dan is still the reason the lions got to this point in the season. Great Coach stand Tall!
As a bears fan I was rooting for you guys. I think Campbell is a hell of a coach but that was bad not kicking those field goals. It’s not high in sight, it was obvious in the moment that’s what he shoulda done. We’ll see you next year lions
I can honestly say his family regrets it, his team, his bosses and paycheck signers, the fans of his city, etc… And THAT is the harsh reality of being a leader. Respect to DC for standing by his decisions. I think it his heart of hearts, he knows the first FG should have absolutely been taken. It’s was a near gimme, and makes it a three possession game. I KNOW he will contemplate how they could have better managed themselves on the BAL 2 with a minute left. That I know. DC is a huge reason for why everyone listed earlier even had the opportunity of looking forward to this game and this spot. The wins are always the toughest games to lose. That’s the truth. To Dan Campbell, I’d point out that hindsight’s 20/20. I’d let this particular hindsight sink in quite a bit this offseason if I were him. When the football gods are telling you it’s not a good time to get cute, you heed.
What I don't understand is he can call for a field goal to end the half when the ball was at the one yard line. But the 2nd half then you get aggressive when the game and the momentum was shifting.
Hindsight. The two biggest plays - Gibbs fumble and Vildor reflection that could have been interception. Reynolds dropped both 4th down passes. That normally doesn’t happen.
The nail in the ⚰️ ...Ben Johnson calling a running play at the goal line! When we needed all our time outs.. just fu$king stupid!!! Time for Ben to go to another team!!
Thank you someone finally smart enough on here not going for them field goals cost alliance the game end of story the Lions defense holds the 49ers to three points on the first driver of the third-quarter lions go down and can get three easy points to make it 17 again but instead you go for it, which gives the 49ers a short field after that, the momentum shifted and even when you had a chance to tie the game you go for it again and they don’t get it, which gives the 49ers another short field I guess the first time in the third-quarter quarter wasn’t that short of field but it was still three-point which makes a big difference
@@zacgrasl4229 so you’re telling me 49ers getting a field goal in the game of a third quarter and the lions not matching it doesn’t make a difference you’re an idiot then that’s a three score lead not a two score lead you were obviously stupid and don’t watch football lol
The toughest reality is when your getting older having watched these guys your entire life knowing that you may never get this far again. 😔 For anyone with a heart this really hurts. Coach is right .Everything has to be right. Knowing that our coordinators who are heavily coveted are leaving ( Philadelphia like) we may take a step back . THAT SUCKS. It truly makes you question even investing your time any further.
He cost his team this win and is a petulant child. There's nothing worse than an adult who makes a mistake and refuses to learn from it. We all make mistakes, but if you keep making the same one and saying "I don't regret it", you are a clown. Someone needs to be speaking about how Dan Campbell took no accountability for those 2 absurd 4th down calls. Throughout his post game presser, it was all "WE" didn't execute, "WE" didn't make plays. Those 4th downs were 10 point swings in 49er favor. Had a chance to go up 3 scores, they don't get it, 49ers go down and make it a 1 score game. Later, lions down 24-27, chance to tie with a medium range fg, they don't get it, 49ers go down and score. You kick the fg to go 3 scores, it changes everything, more pressure on a struggling Brock. You tie the game late, pressure is back on 49ers to respond, they probably do, but at least you have a CHANCE. Dan Campbell's "we" shit and having "no regrets" is absolutely SHAMEFUL.
Yep. Dude doesn’t take accountability. “We couldn’t convert, things like that happen, it’s a tough league…” Jesus Christ the guy says the same thing every time his decisions cost his PLAYERS and his FANS a win.
