Omg stop it. Went to multiple SBs and NFCCs the past 5 seasons. We're running out guys like Charlie Heck right now.

OTC says they have $117M APY on IR right now. Only Dallas has more

I just don't understand Kyle Shanahan's logic of playing balls to the wall in meaningless games at the risk of getting guys injured especially Brock Purdy. I just shake my head at his logic.

Because he's trying to win the game and the Lions are dog s**t vs the pass. It's not that deep.

So what, we're gonna pay him a ton of money and he's only gonna play when the games matter? This isn't the NBA. Don't throw a bunch of INTs and maybe they won't have to be in that position end of the 4th.

You have to use your brain. These last few games mean absolutely nothing but for draft position and schedule for next season. As a coach you have to know when to take your foot off the gas. If I was head coach there's no way Bosa,Purdy,McCaffrey if healthy,Kittle,Williams and some others would be playing. Take the mileage off of your stars bodies and live to fight another day.

Who told you Shany has logic?

I saw a quote from Kyle (not sure if it was real) saying something like we would love to beat them and knock them out of the #1 seed position. Shame on him for not knowing even if the lions lost the game they can still get the #1 seed next week. Our team were big idiots and losers this year it sucks.

Why didn't Campbell do the same thing? They literally had nothing to play for last night.

Why did Campbell play all his guys? They're actually SB contenders and that game meant absolutely nothing. Everyone in here loves him in here
SF and their JV team almost beat what folks in here call the best team in football last night…and yet it's the same folks trying to spew the same negative s**t.

Oh I'm not defending Campbell. I thought that was dumb on his part. It's the fact that Kyle didn't know they can still get the #1 seed and we weren't ruining sh*t for them that's embarrassing.

Name a team that has deliberately taken its foot off the gas because it's out of contention. I guarantee you that such a team was not competitive in the following season. It's the mindset of a bad organization.

Come on.

This .

I don't think tanking is common in the NFL compared to other leagues . I really think it's rare .

We need better players. Younger players, smarter players and most importantly healthy players. We have a decent foundation to build on. That has to be the focus. Both lines need emergency help and we need quality depth. This is an unpopular take but it needs to be said. We need cleaner qb play. Brock is young and he will continue to improve but his ceiling is low. The decision making, accuracy and arm strength are real issues. Extending him is happening , no doubt about it but we can't sign him and then ignore the position. We need a quality backup and I fear we maybe in the market for a new starter sooner than anyone wants. I see Jimmy G happening all over again. Last night was very concerning. He showed us how good he can be and how damaging he can be. No qb is perfect but a int happy qb is not long for the league. Injuries played no role in his performance last night. He had time, he had open guys and he was hitting them for most of the game THEN… poof.. 2 backbreaking ints. None of the above has anything to do with coaching or scheme. Not on defense, not on offense and not on special teams. It's all performance and ability based. We need to be honest with ourselves.. Even when healthy, the roster had holes. The D line, O line, LBs, defensive backfield and special teams had gaps and questions.

i dislike Kyle for numerous reasons BUT he is capable of fielding a high octane offense. He is capable of rebuilding the roster and is is capable of winning. With all that needs to be done we can't afford the uncertainty of an entirely new system and wholesale turnover of the coaching staff. We would be looking at a 5 year suck and rebuild. This offseason will be very telling. I hope we don't take the run it back route. It's time to start pruning the tree to allow for new growth. Cut the dead and chronically diseased branches. I don't think we can afford to keep players that are great but chronically injured. Greenlaw is a stud but he is unavailable 35% of the time. Huff flashes greatness but is hurt most of the time. Trent is all world but he is old and hurt a lot of the time.. his body breaks down when we need him most.. late in the season…CMC is all world when healthy.. he has a well documented history of injuries. Yes injuries happen to every team but continuing to roster chronically injured players is asking for trouble.

I don't envy Kyle or Lynch's this offseason. So much need and so much to do. I look forward to the results.
