Lions are playing Bears defence level bad.

Lions are playing Bears defence level bad.

Infinitely worse actually.

 

[Reality Check]

Lions are playing Bears defence level bad.

As long as no one gets hurt, it's fine by me.

It's a scrimmage.

 

[bellagiobob]

Darnold and the Vikings offence licking their chops waiting to face this D next week.

 

[hatterson]

I love how everyone obviously knew the DPI was coming so just stopped playing despite the defender in the midst of running an INT back for a TD

Purdyception for real this time!

 

[BKIslandersFan]

Holy freaking shit Lions needed that INT.

 

[Melrose Munch]

smh brock

 

[Halladay]

Lions get a touchdown on 4th amd goal.

 

[hatterson]

Goff just staring down his receiving on 4th down for the entire play and the 49ers defense decided they'd just leave him uncovered anyway.

 

[GKJ]

How much of a cushion you gonna give Amon-Ra

 

[BKIslandersFan]

Its a miracle, Lions get a stop.

Niners cannot bring back Moody next season.

 

[PeteWorrell]

Moody is terrible.

 

[hatterson]

These teams are hilariously bad on defense.

This isn't even insanely efficient or elite offense, it's just QBs throwing to wide open receivers after completely blown coverages.

 

[bellagiobob]

I’m convinced that the Lions didn’t even bring their punter with them to SF.

I also think a bit of it is that Campbell knows a loss doesn't matter so he's way more willing to go for it in situations where he might be iffy just to get the real game practice in for when it matters.

 

[SwordsgoneWild]

I was dead wrong about it maybe being a slaughter but the Lions can still drop 40. That defense is a major concern heading into the playoffs. Lucky for them their offense can outscore anybody in the NFC.

 

[PeteWorrell]

Pearsall looking like a world beater against that defense.

Needless penalty that is negated by another Joseph pick.

 

[Halladay]

Purdy isnt it.

 

[LickTheEnvelope]

I keep giving Purdy the benefit of the doubt but eh....

Eagles can probably stop them enough and absolutely destroy their defense.

Saquon would probably have like, 600 yard day vs that defense.

 

[GKJ]

Brock Purdy looks like a a guy that could play Ben Affleck in a lifetime movie

 

[PeteWorrell]

Purdy isnt it.

I realized that last year but McCaffrey having an incredible season helped to mitigate it.

 

[Melrose Munch]

purdy is average

 

[bellagiobob]

I keep giving Purdy the benefit of the doubt but eh....

Gonna be really interesting what direction they take with him. Might depend on what happens to Darnold in Minny.

 

[Halladay]

I realized that last year but McCaffrey having an incredible season helped to mitigate it.

For a quarterback on a rookie contract he is fine. They shouldn't pay him though. He misses high over the middle alot and when you do that interception happen.
