That was not a penalty, he got pushed into Hutchinson.

The sack to Davenport the play before was awful.

He called BJ a really good head coach…which we don’t know if that’s true yet

I see other teams bring in a new HC and look way better than this immediately.  I know there are many factors involved but BJ doesn’t have a HC track record to fall back on.  He needs defense and doesn’t have it.  He gets some time to show what he can build but the optimism will sour if results aren’t seen. Probably sooner rather than later.

Agreed. He's much improved over last week. No issues with accuracy.

Mostly agree. He has played well. Still holding the ball too long though.

That optimism has already soured. Not that it should have, but Bears fans are tired of waiting.

Take me back to losing winnable games off inexplicable coaching decisions rather than getting completely depantsed 

[UMFan83]

So great that the Cubs will probably have a short playoff appearance and then we just have the Bears, Bulls and Blackhawks to carry us through the winter. horsefeathers this city is a disgrace for sports

I must admit, I’m tired of waiting too.

This offense has done everything possible to make Caleb look bad today. Swift fumbling in Detroit territory. Countless offensive penalties. Odunze dropping 60 yards of passes in the last drive alone.

Hard to judge a HC when you have a failed GM setting this roster.

Johnson will have to be judged on in-game decisions and whether or not this team quits.

As high as I was on Odunze he just drops too many balls.

[UMFan83]

45-14…

I was told the only reason the lions were an unstoppable offensive juggernaut was Ben Johnson

(I’m the one that said this)

[Derwood]

Glad I turned this off when it was 21-7

He’s got 3 TDs and 120 yards in 1.75 games

This is the kind of loss that makes it difficult to hold the locker room together without strong leadership. 

[Tryptamine]

Odunze might seriously have 200 receiving yards if he could hold onto balls.

[Tryptamine]

 Well that was a horsefeathers throw to Burden

Fox broadcasts blow. One replay from the worst angle...

[Soul]

Lions fans booing because they’re OK with a QB being clobbered in the head. Nice.

Someone here said the chop block call on Wright was Wright getting pushed into the defender, but Fox only showed a corner of the play

You’re two best players on defense. Looks like both were rushed back too early.
