Darnolds first PO game

[Bullazin]

So what are we going to get?  Slinging Sammie was overexcited against the Lions from what I saw.  

I’m thinking he got the yips out against the Lions and comes back very strong this week as that game was a playoff atmosphere and mood in every sense. 

KOC’s continued failure to commit to the run game did not and does not help Slingin Sammie.  We NEVER run the ball on 3 rd and short/ medium.  How many first downs did Detroit get from running the ball on 3rd down Last week alone?  5?   Fix this and we will be unstoppable.

Detroits not afraid to run on 3rd down because 4th is just another offensive down to coach Meathead.

Gilmore needs to bother to show up to this game...

Sammie was disappointing last week, but so was JJ, Addison and TJH.

I dont see the Rams going zero blitz as often as Glenn did; we should've put 37 pts up on that kind of play.

I feel like Ive been repeating myself for 4 or 5 weeks now.  We need more shorter quick out routes for when our OL doesnt hold up.  Slants and fill the blitzers spot, short routes by the TE's, short hook routes etc....  Our OL is not holding up to let the long routes form.

Basically have Jones chip block and then stop 3-5 yrds past the DL to be ready for a quick out if needed.

Agree. You don't have to change the offense at all, you don't even have to use the new plays, just install more high-percentage stuff to use when your QB is struggling or off target or the OL is not holding up. That stuff can repair a struggling QB.
